AUTOMATIC DIESEL ENGINE PROTECTION FOR NEW POWER PLANTS

BOLL supplies 120 automatic filters for lube oil and fuel filtration systems for MAN Diesel Engines in six new Power Plants

MAN Diesel & Turbo is one of the world”s leading manufacturers of diesel engines, supplying a huge range of systems: from gen sets to two-stroke engines for giant container ships; from power units to turnkey diesel power plants; from single compressors and turbines to complete machine trains for various industrial applications.

Power plant construction is a significant  strategic business area for MAN Diesel and the company has recently secured a 300 million euro order for the supply of 120 large diesel engines with generator packs for installation in six new power plants in Brazil. The plants, which are designed to produce some 1,000 megawatts of energy from 2011, will help Brazil meet its growing demand for electricity.

Reliable filtration systems are essential to protect the diesel engines from the risk of damage from particulates – both on the lube oil and fuel oil supply – and MAN Diesel has specified BOLLFILTER filters for the Brazil contract.

Boll 6.46 automatic self-cleaning filters and Boll 1.78.0 Simplex filters will be installed for the lube oil filtration, and Boll 2.06 Duplex Filters and Boll 1.12.2 Simplex Filters for the fuel supply filtration. Additionally 12 automatic filter combinations type 6.64.07 DN125 will be supplied for lube oil.
