The Workboat Annual (Continued from page 41) The Wartsila 46F enters the market as the first engine to have continuous tem- perature monitoring of the big end bear- ings as standard. This patented feature, in addition to main bearing temperature monitoring and exhaust gas temperature monitoring, is designed to provide a complete set of reliable real-time data to monitor the engine performance in all its crucial areas. The monitoring system on the Wartsila 46F is configured for seamless hook-up to Wartsila's CBM system, a data analysis and condition evaluation service that Wartsila provides for its customers. The CBM service advises operators on how to perform engine i _ > TRANSFENNICA F5 Wartsila Power for Sto-Ro Freighters Wartsila received an order from Poland's Stocznia Szczecinska Nowa for the ship power plants for four new 12,800 dwt multipurpose Sto- Ro cargo vessels — designed prima- rily for carrying forest products and paper — being built for Spliethoff Befrachtingskantoor BV. Each ship will feature two Wartsila 12V46 main engines, two Lips CP pro- pellers, two Lips efficiency rudders and two Wartsila 8L20 diesel gensets.

Common rail (CR) technolo- gy, standard on the Wartsila 46F, offers almost unlimited possibilities to adjust the fuel injection process to prevailing engine operating conditions, fuel char- acteristics and local emission require- ments. The Wartsila 46F is also available with more conventional fuel injection equip- ment. In this case the injection equip- ment is based on injection pumps of the double plunger type that have been used with good experience on Wartsila 64 engines. Another unique benefit of the CR sys- tem is the engine's ability to adapt to changes in fuel quality.
