Steel Spring Vibration Damper − Inspection
1. General
Some engine designs can have a Geislinger manufactured vibration damper installed
at the free end of the crankshaft.
The service life of a vibration damper is related to the speed range in which the
engine operates. Sea water (and other types of water) in the lubricating oil can cause
the internal parts to become worn and decrease the effect of the vibration damper.
