Technical information

The injection pump and the turbocharger are also connected to the engine lubricating
system.
The cylinder walls and timing gears are splash-lubricated.
Each cylinder has an oil jet provided for cooling the underside of the pistons.
The lube oil is cleaned in a full-flow oil filter.
Depending on the agreed extent of delivery and the design of the engine, the lube oil cir-
cuit can be equipped with oil pressure monitors (advance warning and cut-off function)
which shut the engine down in the event of a sudden loss of pressure.
Oil cooler
An oil cooler is provided between the oil filter and the crankcase. This cooler is of the flat
tube type with turbulence inserts and operated by the coolant.
