| Pump, coupling and driver on a baseplate | Complete units | Allweiler | Pumps | Many shipboard installations are supplied as a mounted set. Coupling elements, guards, baseplate hardware and the driver identity are worth listing separately, since a vibration complaint is often a coupling or alignment matter rather than a pump matter. |
| Single-helix rotor in a double-helix stator | Eccentric screw · AE series | Allweiler | Pumps | Allweiler's AE range eccentric screw pumps run a chromed rotor inside an elastomer stator, driven through a jointed drive shaft. The stator carries twice the rotor pitch and one lobe more, which is what forms the sealed cavities that travel along the axis. On sludge, bilge, waste oil and chemical dosing duty the stator is the consumable — and its compound, not the pump size, sets the replacement interval. |
| SN series — three-screw, fuel and lube oil duty | Three-screw · SN series | Allweiler | Pumps | One driving spindle meshing with two idler spindles inside a close-fitted bore. Seen on heavy fuel supply and circulating duty and equally on lube oil service, since the pumped oil is also the film that carries the idlers. |
| SNS series — three-screw, alternative bearing and sealing execution | Three-screw · SNS series | Allweiler | Pumps | A three-screw build differing in bearing arrangement, sealing execution and mounting rather than in application; it turns up on lube oil circulation, stern tube service, hydraulic power packs and fuel duty alike. Quiet running and virtually pulsation-free flow is the reason it is chosen, and the reason wear is noticed late. |
| Standardised single-stage units | Centrifugal · NB, NIS, NISO | Allweiler | Pumps | Allweiler's NB, NIS and NISO ranges follow the EN 733 dimension standard, which is why a bearing bracket sometimes interchanges and a seal chamber does not. State the type code and the actual impeller diameter — these pumps leave the works with the impeller machined down to the ordered duty point, so the trim is not recoverable from the model name. |
| Transfer and bunkering duty | Three-screw · larger frames | Allweiler | Pumps | Larger screw frame sizes handle fuel transfer between tanks and bunker lines — high delivered volume at modest differential pressure. Pressure capability comes from the number of sealing chambers along the spindle, so on these frames it is the condition of the flanks and the bore, rather than the driver rating, that decides whether rated capacity is still reached. |
| AN and BOB series | Centrifugal · long-coupled baseplate | Azcue | Pumps | Baseplate-mounted single-stage units driven through a flexible coupling, AN covering heavy duty service to about 700 m³/h. Requests cover the impeller, the wear-ring pair, the seal assembly, drive-end and non-drive-end bearings and the coupling element. |
| BT-HM / BT-LV series | Positive displacement · triple screw | Azcue | Pumps | Triple screw pumps on fuel oil transfer, MDO and LSGO service, and low- and high-viscosity lube oil duty — BT-HM close-coupled, BT-LV vertical in-line. Component requests centre on the screw set (power rotor and idler screws), the insert or liner, shaft seal, bearings and the built-in relief valve spring and seat. |
| CA series | Centrifugal · self-priming | Azcue | Pumps | Horizontal self-priming single-stage centrifugal. The inlet sits high on the casing so liquid is retained after the first prime, allowing repeated priming on bilge, ballast, deck wash and grey water duty and dry running up to roughly 30 minutes. Reaches about 300 m³/h and 105 m and passes soft solids to 10 mm. Built close-coupled with a lantern bracket or as a bare-shaft head, in cast iron GG25, bronze or AISI 316. Wear parts: impeller — closed or semi-open depending on the build, so state which is fitted — casing and cover wear rings, mechanical seal, shaft sleeve and casing gasket. |
| CM, LN and VM/VR series | Centrifugal · vertical in-line | Azcue | Pumps | Vertically arranged in-line pumps used where deck and flat space is tight — cooling circuits, transfer and pressure sets. CM is long-coupled and reaches roughly 1500 m³/h, LN is close-coupled, VM and VR are rigid-coupled. Shaft, sleeve, seal seat and bearing bracket components dominate the wear list. |
| CP series | Centrifugal · close-coupled | Azcue | Pumps | Small close-coupled (monobloc) single-stage centrifugal, DN25 to DN80, up to about 75 m³/h and 50 m, with lantern bracket and back pull-out design so the motor comes off without breaking pipework. Requests typically cover the impeller, wear-ring pair, mechanical seal, pump shaft and bearings. |
| Fire, bilge and sanitary sets | Statutory service | Azcue | Pumps | Pumps serving fire main, bilge and sanitary systems usually carry documentation expectations beyond the mechanical fit. Flag those duties in the request so the route and paperwork question is settled before quotation. |
| MA, MO/BR, RA, KL/KB and RKZ | Side channel and eccentric screw | Azcue | Pumps | The MA, MO/BR and RA side channel ranges self-prime and keep pumping gas-laden liquid on tank stripping and priming duty, with a stage code carried in the model number. KL and KB eccentric screw units and RKZ vertical piston pumps handle viscous and sludge media. State the stage count and the medium so stage components, rotor and stator can be scoped. |
| MN series | Centrifugal · monobloc to DIN 24255 | Azcue | Pumps | Horizontal close-coupled (monobloc) single-stage centrifugal built to the DIN 24255 footprint — the workhorse range on cooling, ballast and general service up to about 500 m³/h and 10 bar, dropping into existing DIN 24255 pipework. Impeller, casing and cover wear rings, mechanical seal and shaft sleeve dominate the wear list. |
| CAT 3508 | CAT 3500 Series | Caterpillar | Engines | 8-cylinder V-form diesel, auxiliary and propulsion. Cylinder liner sets, piston assemblies, injector tips, turbocharger cartridges, gasket kits. |

| BRC hydraulic actuators | Actuators - BRC series | Damcos | Valves | BRC actuators sit on the valve itself and turn hydraulic pressure from the power unit into valve movement. This is the layer opened most often on board, and the layer where seal kits and rebuild kits are the usual first line on an enquiry. |
| BRCF HT high-torque execution | Actuators - BRCF HT | Damcos | Valves | Where a valve asks for more torque than the standard execution provides, the high-torque BRCF HT variant is the one fitted. Because HT is a distinct build, it is worth reading the marking rather than assuming the standard variant when the request is written. |
| BRCF hydraulic actuators | Actuators - BRCF series | Damcos | Valves | The BRCF range covers the same job in a different execution. Read the series marking off the actuator body before a kit is described, since the kit is matched to the actuator series rather than to the size of the valve underneath it. |
| Damcos control cabinets | Control cabinets | Damcos | Valves | The cabinet is where valve commands originate and where position feedback arrives. Cards and interface modules inside it are replaceable items, and a fault on this side can look identical, on the mimic panel, to a fault out at the valve. |
| LPU-S, LPU-D and LPU Plus local power units | Power units - LPU series | Damcos | Valves | The LPU series are the electro-hydraulic power units of a Damcos valve remote control system: the layer that generates hydraulic pressure and holds it available for the actuators it serves. State which execution is on board, because the pump, motor, solenoid and manifold parts inside follow the execution rather than the vessel type. |
| Valve remote control systems | Complete systems | Damcos | Valves | Power unit, actuators and cabinet together form the Valve Remote Control System. Documented duty covers ballast valves, cargo valves, hatch covers, steering gear and bilge systems on tankers, bulk carriers, LNG carriers and cruise ships. |
| AGC 150 standalone controller | Genset controllers · AGC 150 | Deif | Control and governors | The standalone, non-synchronizing member of the AGC range, typically seen on an emergency generator. Because it does not parallel, its spare scope differs from an AGC-4 on the main switchboard even where the panel cut-out looks the same. |
| AGC-4 and AGC-4 Mk II | Genset controllers · AGC-4 | Deif | Control and governors | Genset, mains, bus-tie, group and plant controllers on the main switchboard. One hardware family covers several controller roles, so the role a unit fills on board belongs in the request beside the type designation. |
| Delomatic-3 and Delomatic-4 | Power management · Delomatic | Deif | Control and governors | Platform modules coordinating synchronizing, load sharing, load reduction and shedding, and covering shaft-generator or DP-interface duty. What is usually needed is an individual card out of the cubicle rather than a complete controller. |
| Multi-line 2 GPU and GPC | Generator protection · Multi-line 2 | Deif | Control and governors | Multi-line 2 in its Generator Protection Unit (GPU) and Generator Paralleling Controller (GPC) variants, fitted as a module set for standalone generator protection or paralleling. |
| MVR-200, MDR-2, GPU-3, MTR-4 and APU-4 | Protection relays · multi-function | Deif | Control and governors | Busbar, generator, motor, transformer and grid protection modules. Several of these often sit side by side in one switchboard, so a request naming only the vessel and the symptom rarely narrows to a single module. |
| PPM 300 genset controllers | Paralleling & protection · PPM 300 | Deif | Control and governors | PPM 300 genset controllers, including the PPM 300 Emergency marine and offshore variant. These are the units met inside a PLC-based power management system rather than on a standalone panel. |
| PPU-3 and PPU 300 units | Paralleling & protection · PPU | Deif | Control and governors | Synchronizing and load-sharing units. On board they sit in the same paralleling and protection duty as PPM 300, which is why the designation read off the fascia decides the parts list rather than the function described over the phone. |
| RMC, RMP, RMQ, RMV and LMR-1xx | Protection relays · RM-series | Deif | Control and governors | Single-function current, power, loss-of-excitation, loss-of-mains, voltage and frequency relays, handled alongside genset controller and power-management requests rather than as a separate enquiry. |
| Ballast, bilge & fire line | Duty context | DESMI | Pumps | Ballast, bilge and fire-line installations where suction conditions are harsh and running is intermittent. Seal arrangement, priming provision and driver data must be stated with the pump identity. |
| Casing gaskets and covers | Static sealing | DESMI | Pumps | Casing gaskets, cover O-rings and drain plug seals are cheap to include and expensive to omit once the pump is open. They belong on the same RFQ as the rotating parts, listed against the same pump serial. |
| Coupling elements and alignment | Drive | DESMI | Pumps | Flexible coupling elements degrade with heat, oil contact and misalignment, and a worn element accelerates seal and bearing wear downstream. Note the coupling make, size and element type — these are frequently not the pump maker's own part. |
| DSL series | Centrifugal · SL programme | DESMI | Pumps | Consult the plate — the SL designations separate suction and coupling arrangement, which changes the impeller, wear ring and bearing spares. Whether the unit in front of you is a double-suction build (no single suction-side wear ring, different impeller) has to be confirmed against the pump manual, not inferred from the three letters on the casing. |
| ESL series | Centrifugal · SL programme | DESMI | Pumps | Another SL designation separated by suction and coupling arrangement rather than by size. Seal face pairs, elastomer kits, impellers and rolling-element bearings recur on the line list, but an end-suction build brings its own bearing bracket, pump shaft and coupling spacer, so confirm the arrangement before a wear ring is matched. |
| Impeller erosion and cavitation | Hydraulics | DESMI | Pumps | Leading edges thin out and vane suction faces show pitting just behind the leading edge, often carrying into the shroud. Pitting there points to suction-side conditions — strainer, sea chest or NPSH — so a like-for-like impeller alone may not settle the fault. Where a bronze impeller runs in a cast iron casing, the casing and casing wear ring are the anodic parts and lose metal first: inspect the ring bore and casing faces, not only the impeller, and note any sacrificial anodes fitted in the covers and their condition. Record the trimmed diameter that came out, because it rarely equals the nominal diameter of the family. |
| Modular pump builds | Centrifugal · Modular | DESMI | Pumps | Pumps assembled from shared hydraulic, sealing and bearing modules. Identification depends on the module combination recorded on the plate and in the order documents, so the family name alone is not enough to fix a spare. |
| NSL series | Centrifugal · Vertical in-line | DESMI | Pumps | Single-stage vertical in-line centrifugal pumps bolted directly into cooling and general-service pipe runs, with the driver carried above the casing. The high-head variant (NSLH) carries a different plate designation and different hydraulic spares — read the plate rather than assuming NSL. Requests usually cover the casing wear ring, impeller, mechanical seal cartridge, shaft sleeve, motor stool/lantern and the seal chamber components. Long-coupled variants add a bearing bracket and coupling spacer — state which build is fitted, because the two carry different spares. |
| ROTAN internal gear pumps | Positive displacement · Internal gear | DESMI | Pumps | DESMI's ROTAN internal gear pumps on fuel oil, lube oil and viscous transfer duty, where a centrifugal would lose prime or shear the medium. Line items typically cover the rotor and idler set, idler pin and bushings, front cover and gasket, mechanical seal or packing set, and relief valve parts. State the bushing material with the request: a fuel-duty build and a sludge-duty build of the same frame size take different ones. |
| Seal faces and face pairing | Sealing | DESMI | Pumps | Seawater carries sand, silt and marine growth straight into the seal chamber. The pairing wears, weeping appears at the seal chamber drain and a salt crust builds on the lantern/motor stool below it. The face material combination and elastomer grade decide the replacement — the seal size alone does not. |
| Seawater cooling service | Duty context | DESMI | Pumps | Seawater pumps serving the central cooler and the SW cooling line, and the fresh-water circulating pumps on the closed jacket and low-temperature circuits. The two duties are built in different wetted materials, so the circuit must be stated with the pump identity: a bronze or duplex build cannot be replaced from a fresh-water parts list of the same nominal size. |
| Self-priming units | Priming | DESMI | Pumps | Self-priming pumps and separately mounted priming units on bilge, ballast and stripping duty. Vacuum unit elements, priming valves, non-return components and seal kits are requested as sets. |
| Shafts, sleeves and bearings | Rotating assembly | DESMI | Pumps | Fretting under the seal, corrosion at the sleeve shoulder and bearing housing bore wear usually surface together. When a shaft is ordered, state whether the sleeve, key, lock nut and bearing set are being renewed with it. |
| Wear ring clearance opening up | Clearances | DESMI | Pumps | As the casing ring and impeller neck ring lose their fit, recirculation grows and the pump quietly falls below its duty point while sounding mechanically healthy. Ring bore, ring width and the matching impeller neck dimension should be measured before the RFQ is sent. |
| Pac series - the instrument in a pocket | Portable single-gas - Pac series | Dräger | Gas detection | Pac 3500, Pac 5500, Pac 6000, Pac 6500, Pac 7000 and Pac 8000 cover single-gas duty, from a quick check before a space is entered to a personal monitor worn through a watch. The model matters more than it looks: Pac 5500, Pac 7000 and Pac 8000 are lifetime instruments with a replaceable battery and a replaceable sensor, while the Pac 3500 is a fixed-life sealed device. |
| PIR 7000, Regard panels and Draeger-Tubes | Sensor heads, panels and tubes | Dräger | Gas detection | PIR 7000 point infrared sensor heads serve fixed detection points, and Regard 3900 and Regard 7000 control panels are what the Polytron transmitters feed into. Alongside all of the electronics sits the colorimetric Draeger-Tubes system with the accuro hand pump - more than 500 substance tubes, no power required, usable in Ex areas. |
| Polytron 7000 and the signal it sends | Universal transmitter | Dräger | Gas detection | The Polytron 7000 is a universal transmitter supporting 4-20 mA, HART, PROFIBUS and FF outputs. On a replacement enquiry the output type matters as much as the sensor, because the transmitter has to talk to a panel that was wired years earlier and will not be rewired for a spare. |
| Polytron transmitters in the machinery spaces | Fixed transmitters - Polytron series | Dräger | Gas detection | Polytron 3000, Polytron 5100 EC and Polytron 6100 EC WL cover electrochemical duty for toxic gases and oxygen; Polytron 5200 CAT covers flammables on the catalytic principle; Polytron 8100 EC and Polytron 8700 IR sit at the upper end. The suffix is not decoration - it names the measuring principle, and therefore the sensor that can be fitted. |
| Sampling a space from outside it | Pump-capable sampling | Dräger | Gas detection | X-am 7000 and X-am 8000 are pump-capable with hose runs up to 45 m, which is what allows a tank or cargo hold atmosphere to be drawn out and read before anyone goes in. That capability brings its own consumables: pump units, sampling hoses, probes and adapters, none of which are recoverable from the instrument model name alone. |
| X-am series - enclosed-space and tank entry | Portable multi-gas - X-am series | Dräger | Gas detection | X-am 2500, X-am 2800, X-am 5000, X-am 5600, X-am 7000 and X-am 8000 read several gases at once, which is what an entry permit normally asks for. Sensor fit varies between instruments of the same model, so the gases actually configured have to come with the request rather than be assumed from the model name. |
| Anti-Heeling Pumps | Stability system | Framo | Pumps | Submerged pumps able to run in both directions, so heel is corrected by reversing the pump rather than by a changeover valve arrangement. Enquiries usually mix pump wear parts with heel-sensor and control-system components. |
| Cofferdam Barrier and Drain Arrangement | Barrier system | Framo | Pumps | The dry barrier space between hydraulic oil and cargo, drained to a shut-off valve and collecting point at deck level. Cofferdam drain lines, drain valves and deck drain-point fittings, with the purging connection used to clear the line. |
| Hydraulic Motor Assemblies | Hydraulic drive | Framo | Pumps | The motor on top of each pump head. Piston and cylinder-block wear, valve plate scoring, shaft seal leakage and bearing play are the usual reasons a unit is landed for overhaul. |
| Hydraulic Power Packs | Hydraulic drive | Framo | Pumps | Engine-driven or electrically driven pack feeding a constant-pressure ring line through pressure-compensated main pumps that destroke on demand. Feed and main pump elements, pressure and return filter elements, relief valves, oil coolers and header-tank components. |
| SB Series Submerged Ballast Pumps | Ballast duty | Framo | Pumps | Hydraulically driven ballast pumps — SB125, SB200, SB300 — in segregated ballast tanks and on anti-heeling service. Seawater duty changes the corrosion picture: bearing wear, impeller erosion and shaft sleeve condition dominate the parts list, alongside seal kits and hydraulic motor service components. |
| SD Series Submerged Cargo Pumps | Submerged cargo | Framo | Pumps | Single-stage centrifugal cargo pumps hung in the tank on the discharge pipe, designated as series plus size — SD100, SD125, SD150, SD200, SD250, SD300. The series covers full cargo tanks down to slop and small parcel tanks. Impeller and wear ring, top and bottom bearings, cofferdam seal arrangements, hydraulic motor internals. |
| TK Series Portable Hydraulic Pumps | Portable equipment | Framo | Pumps | Hose-fed TK80, TK100 and TK150 units used for stripping, residue and washings removal, dewatering and emergency transfer, driven from the ship's hydraulic system or a portable power pack. Service kits, quick-couplings, hose sets, impeller and seal components are the recurring items. |
| Approvals across five societies | Class type approval | Fukui | Valves | Fukui valves are documented as type-approved by LR, BV, DNV-GL, ABS and ClassNK. Which society issued the certificate for the valve in front of you is worth stating in the enquiry, because the survey the overhaul is attached to, and the record the ship has to keep afterwards, follow that certificate rather than the valve body alone. |
| ClassNK hydrogen work | Liquefied-hydrogen carriers | Fukui | Valves | Fukui signed a memorandum of understanding with ClassNK in 2023 covering safety valves for hydrogen dual-fuel engines and liquefied-hydrogen carriers, and type approval under that work was issued in 2025. For a buyer the practical point is that hydrogen-side valves carry a documentation trail that a buyer should expect to reference when the valve is opened. |
| Engine-room pressure relief | Engine-room service | Fukui | Valves | Engine-room relief duty is the second documented application. These valves sit on machinery-space systems rather than on cargo, and they are usually opened as part of a planned overhaul rather than after an incident, which is why requests for them tend to arrive as kits and inspection spares rather than as single emergency items. |
| Pilot-operated safety and relief valves | Pilot-operated principle | Fukui | Valves | In a pilot-operated valve the setting is held by a small pilot rather than by a large spring bearing directly on the main disc. The pilot senses system pressure and controls the loading on the main valve, which is what allows the valve to stay tight close to its setting and then open decisively. It also means the pilot, not the main body, is the part most often on an enquiry. |
| PSL-MD low-pressure type | Liquefied-gas cargo tanks | Fukui | Valves | The PSL-MD is Fukui's low-pressure pilot-operated type for liquefied-gas cargo tanks. Cargo tank protection sits in a narrow band: the valve has to hold tight against normal tank pressure and still relieve without hesitation, so the condition of the pilot, the seat and the soft seals matters more here than raw size does. |
| Ultra-high-pressure relief valves | Hydrogen dual-fuel | Fukui | Valves | Fukui also develops ultra-high-pressure relief valves for hydrogen dual-fuel engines. This is newer equipment on a small number of vessels, and enquiries around it are best handled with the valve identity and the system it serves stated in full, since the installed base is not yet something a buyer can assume anything about. |
| Bowl bottom, bowl hood and lock ring | 02 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Erosion at the solids ports and fretting on the lock ring thread are the usual findings on high-hours heavy fuel machines. These are heavy rotating parts machined as a balanced group — the stamped marking on the hood and the machine number must both appear on the RFQ. |
| Clarifier configuration | Bowl configuration | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Clarifier configuration closes off the heavy-phase outlet with a clarifier disc or sealing ring in place of the regulating ring, and uses a different top disc. OSD and OSE bowls are rigged both ways, so state whether the machine is currently running as clarifier or purifier — the bowl parts differ between the two. |
| Disc stack and bowl discs | 01 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | The stack is a matched set. Disc count, caulk height and total stack height determine how the lock ring seats and how much compression the stack carries. Mixing new discs into a worn stack gives uneven caulk spacing and an altered stack height, disturbing flow distribution between the discs and the compression the lock ring applies. A stack worn throughout instead loses height and leaves the bowl short of correct clamping. Record the number of discs removed and the measured stack height before ordering. |
| Discharge system | Solids handling | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Sliding piston, closing chamber, nozzles and the operating water valve block. This subassembly is where most partial-discharge and bowl-not-closing complaints originate. |
| eagleclass | Separator class | GEA Westfalia | Separators | A GEA marine separator class designation that appears on the plate alongside the type code — read as a marine separator eagleclass, type OSE 20, for instance. Quote it together with the type designation rather than in place of it, and note the hardware and software revision recorded in the machine file where a control input is involved. |
| Gear parts and coupling elements | 06 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Worm wheel and worm shaft wear shows as noise, metal in the gear oil and a slow rise to bowl speed. Friction coupling pads glaze and slip. Gear oil condition and the recorded run-up time are useful evidence to include when these parts are requested. |
| Operating water valve and seal rings | 04 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Bowl opening and closing depend on clean operating water at the right pressure reaching the closing chamber. A scaled valve seat or a perished sliding piston sealing ring leaves a bowl that will not close after discharge. An eroded or enlarged nozzle bleeds closing water away faster than it is replaced, giving continuous leakage at the solids ports or discharges that fire without command; a blocked nozzle traps closing water and leaves a bowl that will not open at all. |
| OSA / OSB / OSC bowls | Legacy self-cleaning | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Earlier self-cleaning bowl generations still in service on smaller auxiliaries. Bowl discs, lock rings and spindle parts for these often need identification from the stamped bowl marking rather than a catalogue reference. |
| OSD series | Self-cleaning purifier | GEA Westfalia | Separators | The workhorse marine purifier line — sizes such as OSD 6, OSD 18 and OSD 35 handle heavy fuel and lube oil duty with a hydraulically actuated sliding piston and a full bowl-periphery solids ejection. |
| OSE series | Self-cleaning purifier | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Separators covering the sizes OSE 5, OSE 10, OSE 20 and OSE 40, with bowl internals and the operating water block differing from the OSD equivalents even where the throughput rating looks similar. |
| Regulating ring (gravity disc) | 03 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | On conventional purifiers without unitrol interface control, the regulating ring bore sets the position of the oil–water interface in the bowl. Too large a bore moves the interface outward toward the bowl periphery, breaking the water seal and losing oil to the water side; too small a bore moves it inward, letting water carry over into the clean oil. Denser fuel, a higher separating temperature or a lower throughput all point toward a smaller bore. The correct figure follows from fuel density at 15 °C, separating temperature and actual throughput, not from what was fitted last time. |
| Spindle, top and bottom bearings | 05 | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Rising vibration and a changed run-up time are the early signs. The top bearing sits in its damping assembly with springs or elastic elements that must be renewed together with the bearing; the bottom bearing is matched to the spindle seat. Bearing renewal without checking bowl balance rarely cures the vibration on its own. |
| unitrol / unitrolplus | Interface control | GEA Westfalia | Separators | These systems replace the regulating ring altogether, holding the oil–water interface in position electronically from a water-content transducer signal, and they also handle discharge timing, water feed and alarms. Sensors, solenoid pilot valves and the transducer itself are the parts most often requested from this side of the machine. |
| Worm gear drive | Drive assembly | GEA Westfalia | Separators | Horizontal shaft, worm and worm wheel, friction coupling pads and the vertical spindle. Ratio and worm wheel tooth count vary with bowl speed, so drive parts are machine-specific rather than family-wide. |
| Air-cooled builds | Cooling arrangement | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Finned cooler sections and fan-side components replace the water-side hardware. Cooler section, fan wheel and guard part references do not carry over from a water-cooled machine of the same type number. |
| Coupling and drive side | Drive arrangement | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Flexible coupling elements, drive bushes and mounting hardware differ between direct-coupled and belt-driven installations. A photograph of the drive end usually settles which arrangement is fitted. |
| Legacy W-frames | Older and superseded frames | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Older W-series machines still in service may reference part numbers that have been superseded. Serial number and a nameplate photograph are needed before any current reference is treated as equivalent. The type may be stamped with or without a space — W 110 and W110 are the same machine — and later units may be nameplated under the MacGregor group. Larger and smaller W-frames outside the four shown here are handled on the same evidence. |
| Power packs and control gear | Hydraulic systems | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Pump unit plate, working pressure and circuit drawing reference are the starting point. Seal kits, filter elements, relief and directional valve parts are the usual scope on these requests. |
| Rotary vane steering gear | Steering gear | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Rotor and stator size designation, rated torque and system pressure identify the unit. Requests usually concern vane seals, bearing bushes, hydraulic pump parts and control valve components. |
| W110 | W-series · smaller frame | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Smaller-frame starting-air unit, often installed as the topping-up or second compressor. Requests typically cover concentric valve assemblies, piston ring sets, oil scraper rings and crankcase seal kits. |
| W140 | W-series · mid frame | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Mid-frame unit found on general cargo, coaster and workboat installations. Cylinder and piston sets, big-end bearings, safety valves and cooler element requests are the common items. |
| W220 | W-series · larger frame | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Larger free air delivery for main-engine starting duty on bigger installations. Valve seats and plate stacks, HP piston assemblies, intercooler tube stacks and unloading valve components. |
| W330 | W-series · larger frame | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Larger frame within the range shown here; the W-series continues above this size. Main bearings, big-end bearings, connecting rod bolts, cylinders, aftercooler elements and separator internals are typical overhaul-scope requests. |
| Water-cooled builds | Cooling arrangement | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Intercooler and aftercooler tube stacks, cooler covers, jacket seals, water-side gaskets, and zinc anodes on seawater-cooled builds. State the cooling arrangement on the request — it changes a large share of the parts list. |
| Windlasses and mooring winches | Deck machinery | Hatlapa | Air compressors | Type plate, drive arrangement, hydraulic or electric configuration and brake band details are needed. Common items are seal kits, brake linings, gearbox bearings, clutch parts and hydraulic motor components. |
| Four-stroke, medium-speed duty | Scope note | IHI | Turbochargers | The IHI RH-series turbochargers described here serve four-stroke, medium-speed engines on auxiliary gensets, workboats, fishing vessels and tugs. IHI's separate Diesel United business licence-builds large, slow-speed two-stroke MAN B&W and WinGD main engines — a different business, unrelated to the RH-series turbochargers on this page. |
| NIIGATA-brand HX and AHX engines | Corporate connection | IHI | Turbochargers | NIIGATA-brand medium-speed diesel engines — the HX and AHX series used on tugs, offshore support vessels and harbour craft — are built by IHI Power Systems Co., Ltd. (formerly Niigata Power Systems, now part of the IHI Group). A turbocharger request against a NIIGATA nameplate is reviewed with that corporate link in mind. |
| RH-family marine turbochargers | IHI RH Series | IHI | Turbochargers | The core marine range — RH133, RH143, RH163, RH183, RH203, RH233, RH253 and RH283 — sized across a small, medium and large frame family. Requests typically open with a rotor shaft assembly, nozzle ring or bearing set rather than a single fastener. |
| RH133 / RH143 / RH163 | Frame range | IHI | Turbochargers | The smaller-to-medium RH frames, most often requested against auxiliary genset and workboat duty. State the exact frame number as it appears on the nameplate before a rotor or bearing line is quoted. |
| RH183 / RH203 / RH233 / RH253 / RH283 | Frame range | IHI | Turbochargers | The larger-frame RH machines, typically overhaul-driven: nozzle ring, turbine blade and bearing casing lines quoted together against one docking window. |
| RHB, RHC and RHE small-frame variants | IHI RH Series — Yanmar duty | IHI | Turbochargers | A separate small-frame line built specifically for Yanmar marine diesel engines: RHB31, RHB52, RHC61 and RHE62, for example RHB31GW fitted to the Yanmar 4JH-HTE and RHE62W fitted to the 6LP-STE. Copy the full type suffix exactly as stamped — it is not interchangeable with the RH133-283 frame family. |
| RU series | High-pressure-ratio family | IHI | Turbochargers | IHI also lists an RU high-pressure-ratio family (RU110, RU120/122, RU124, RU125). Ratings and dimensions are confirmed against the specific plate before anything is quoted — this page does not carry assumed specifications for the RU line. |
| Yanmar marine diesel engines | Engine duty | IHI | Turbochargers | Yanmar marine diesel engines are OEM-fitted with IHI RH-series turbochargers across auxiliary and propulsion duty. Provide the Yanmar engine type alongside the turbocharger plate — the same RH frame is built to different specifications for different engine applications. |
| ACD — high-capacity frames | IMO ACD Series | IMO AB | Pumps | Double-suction construction feeds both rotor ends and discharges in the centre, which doubles displacement for a given rotor size and cancels axial thrust between the two halves rather than raising differential pressure. Typical duties are high-flow, moderate-pressure lube oil and transfer service. High-pressure hydraulic duty is met by single-suction frames with a short rotor lead and more sealed closures in series. |
| ACE — transfer and booster frames | IMO ACE Series | IMO AB | Pumps | Compact single-suction three-screw pumps on fuel oil transfer, separator feed, burner supply and hydraulic power pack duty, where a short rotor lead and more sealed closures in series carry the high differential pressure. Requests commonly resolve to a matched rotor set, the idler bearing surfaces, the pump insert, or a mechanical seal and bearing kit. |
| ACG — lube oil service frames | IMO ACG Series | IMO AB | Pumps | Larger single-suction frames on four-stroke and geared plants for engine and gearbox lubricating oil circulation, on stern tube and prelube service across ship types, and on heavy fuel booster and hydraulic power pack duty. On large two-stroke installations the main LO circulating pumps are centrifugal; the screw pumps sit on stern tube, prelube, transfer and purifier feed. Housing liners, cartridge assemblies and relief valve internals are the recurring lines on this family. |
| Built-in relief and bypass valves | Protection device | IMO AB | Pumps | Spring, cone or piston, seat and adjusting parts of the integral relief valve. It is an over-pressure protection device for a positive displacement pump — not a flow regulator — and its condition is worth stating in the request. |
| Mechanical seal variants | Sealing arrangement | IMO AB | Pumps | The seal execution is encoded in the designation suffix, not the size figure — two ACG pumps of identical bore can carry different faces and elastomers because one was built for heated HFO at the booster and the other for distillate transfer. Give the suffix characters and the working temperature; where the plate is gone, the medium and the line temperature substitute for them. |
| Pump inserts and cartridges | Rotating assembly | IMO AB | Pumps | IMO supplies the rotating assembly as a unit on most ACE and ACG frames: matched rotors in their liner, dropped into the casing that is already bolted to the foundation. Ordering at insert level reduces the clearance guesswork of rebuilding a worn body around new rotors, and on a pump whose casing is welded into a fuel line it is often the only route that does not need the pipework broken. |
| Air-cooled and water-cooled builds | Build variants | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Sauer normally carries the cooling arrangement in the type code itself — the suffix on the WP designation distinguishes the air-cooled build from its water-cooled equivalent. Send the full designation including suffix letters, since cooler elements, fan wheels, cooling water connections and temperature switches do not cross between the two builds. |
| Breathing-air packages | Duty variants | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Where the machine feeds SCBA or escape-set charging, final pressure sits in the 200 to 330 bar band and the stage count rises accordingly. Filter cartridges, separator elements and moisture-monitoring items carry documentation expectations that plain working-air spares do not. |
| Hurricane series | Series | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | High-pressure arrangements used where breathing air or elevated final pressure is required, reaching well beyond the 30 to 40 bar of a starting-air machine. Purification-stage cartridges, separator elements and high-pressure fittings sit alongside the usual mechanical wear items. |
| Other WP designations | Type designation | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | The WP designations span many intermediate sizes and build revisions. A type code on its own rarely settles a part; the series name, the serial and the stage count decide which of several superseded assemblies applies. |
| Passat series | Series | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Starting-air and control-air packages built around the same reciprocating core. Valve plates, springs, unloader components and pressure switches are the recurring consumables. |
| WP15L | Type designation | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Compact low-throughput unit typically found on emergency and topping-up duty. Requests usually concentrate on suction and delivery valve assemblies, first- and second-stage rings, and the small-bore liner. |
| WP81L | Type designation | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Mid-range machine built for starting air and general working air. Piston and guide rings, stage valve sets, intercooler elements and condensate drain components dominate the RFQ traffic on this size. |
| WP311L | Type designation | J.P. Sauer | Air compressors | Larger WP unit charging main-engine air receivers. Crankshaft and connecting-rod bearings, cylinder liners, aftercooler elements and safety valve components appear more often here because duty cycles are longer. |
| Auxiliary and main engine fits | Engine context | KBB | Turbochargers | The same frame size behaves differently on a constant-speed generator set and on a variable-load propulsion engine. Tell us the duty, the fuel in use and the hours since the last overhaul — it changes which wear items are worth reviewing together. |
| Bearing bushes and thrust bearing | Rotor support | KBB | Turbochargers | Radial bearing bushes run in the bearing casing on engine lube oil, with an axial thrust bearing taking the pressure difference across the rotor. Clearance growth here typically shows up as rising vibration and noise, increased oil throughput, and — once rotor position degrades enough to allow rubbing — loss of charge air pressure. Report rotor axial and radial clearance readings with the RFQ. |
| Cartridge group requests | Assembly level | KBB | Turbochargers | A cartridge group carries the rotor, bearing casing, bearing bushes and sealing bushes as one balanced assembly. State in the RFQ whether the vessel plans an exchange overhaul or a component-level rebuild, because the two produce completely different item lists. |
| Casings, nozzle rings and shroud rings | Gas path | KBB | Turbochargers | The gas inlet casing carries a turbine nozzle ring that sets the flow geometry into the wheel, with a separate shroud ring protecting the casing itself. Thermal cycling on heavy fuel distorts and cracks these parts, and deposits on the nozzle ring reduce effective turbine area, which drives turbocharger speed and charge air pressure up and shifts exhaust temperatures across the engine. |
| Filter silencer and oil supply | Intake and oil | KBB | Turbochargers | The filter silencer element is the simplest part on the machine to renew and the one most often left too long; a blocked mat raises exhaust temperatures across every cylinder. Oil inlet fittings, restrictors and screens belong in the same RFQ, because bearing life follows oil condition. |
| HPR frames — the earlier radial generation | KBB HPR series | KBB | Turbochargers | HPR designations are the family letters plus a size number, for example HPR3000 through HPR6000, covering roughly 500–3,000 kW per unit — the duty band the later ST generation went on to cover at higher pressure ratio. ST designations may additionally carry a variant suffix. Either way it is the specification number on the plate, not the designation, that defines the build. |
| Legacy R-series | KBB R series | KBB | Turbochargers | Older R-series machines are still running on long-lived medium-speed installations, and they use a water-cooled bearing housing, so cooling-side parts belong in the same request. These requests usually need more evidence than current frames — plate photographs, a component photograph and the engine type, because the printed spares documentation on board is often the only remaining reference. |
| Nozzle ring and diffuser variants | Matching-critical | KBB | Turbochargers | Turbine nozzle rings and compressor-side diffusers exist in more than one variant per frame, and the specification number is what separates them. A part that bolts up correctly can still shift the matching of the engine, so the matching reference from the technical file belongs in the RFQ next to the designation. |
| One-piece turbine wheel | Turbine side | KBB | Turbochargers | Exhaust gas enters the wheel radially at its periphery through the gas inlet casing and nozzle ring, turns, and discharges axially through the exducer at the wheel eye. The wheel is a single nickel-alloy casting joined to the shaft, so a bent or eroded blade is not an individual blade order — it moves the request to a shaft assembly or a cartridge. |
| Radial compressor wheel | Compressor side | KBB | Turbochargers | The aluminium compressor wheel is a life-limited item on many KBB installations, counted in running hours rather than replaced on condition. Bore and back-face fatigue, plus foreign-object damage drawn through a tired filter silencer, are the usual reasons a wheel comes off before its hour limit. |
| Sealing bushes at both ends | Sealing | KBB | Turbochargers | Sealing bushes separate the oil space from the gas and air sides. When they wear, oil migrates towards the compressor casing or into the exhaust — oily charge air, deposits in the cooler, or a smoking uptake are the symptoms an engineer reports before the parts list is written. |
| ST frames — the principal radial family | KBB ST series | KBB | Turbochargers | ST-series machines, including the current ST27 and ST27-EP, are KBB's principal radial family, covering roughly 500–6,000 kW per unit on medium-speed auxiliary sets and main engines. Typical items are cartridges, shaft assemblies, plain bearings, sealing bushes, nozzle rings and filter silencer elements. |
| Compact Performance series | Spring-loaded & Compact Performance series | LESER | Valves | The compact line, quoted against the type designation and the orifice designation carried on the valve itself rather than against the series name. Where a valve of this line is on a machinery-space position, the orifice designation is the field that keeps a disc or seat component on the right size. |
| High Performance series | Spring-loaded & High Performance series | LESER | Valves | Scoped from the type designation, the orifice designation and the set pressure recorded for the position the valve protects. On this line the same body size is built in more than one internal arrangement, so the type designation has to be sent in full - every character of it, as stamped. |
| Modulate Action series | Modulate Action series | LESER | Valves | The modulating line. As with the spring-loaded series, it is the type designation and the orifice designation on the valve that decide the internals, not the series name, and the medium the valve sees decides the soft-seal specification. |
| Series 810 and 820 - pilot-operated relief valves | Pilot-operated & series 810 and 820 | LESER | Valves | Pilot-operated relief valves carry pilot components in addition to the main valve internals, so they are scoped differently from a spring-loaded valve: the pilot is a request line of its own. LESER holds a DNV GL Type Approval Certificate for the series 810 and 820 pilot-operated relief valves; that certificate applies to those series and is not read across to the other lines. |
| Steam, water, fuel, lubrication and cargo duty | Systems protected on board | LESER | Valves | The same valve series turns up on steam, water, fuel and lubrication systems, and on LNG/LPG cargo systems including FPSO installations. The system a valve protects, and the medium and temperature it actually sees, decide the soft-seal and bellows specification - which is why the duty is asked for before any seal item is put on a line. |
| Types 526 and 441 - horizontal and suspended installation | Marine installation & types 526 and 441 | LESER | Valves | Types 526 and 441 are documented for horizontal and suspended marine installation. Where one of these is fitted, state the installation arrangement alongside the type designation, since mounting-related components and the way the valve is supported belong in the same enquiry as the internals. |

| Control valves, cylinder valves, regulating valves and safety valves | Control and line valves | Nakakita | Valves | Alongside the butterfly line, Nakakita builds control valves, cylinder valves, regulating valves and safety valves. Documented service for the control valves and their controllers includes main-engine fuel-oil heating, cooling fresh-water and lube-oil systems, where the valve and the controller are two halves of one loop and are best identified together. |
| Metal-seated valves with Stellite seat facing | NS-C - metal-seated execution | Nakakita | Valves | The metal-seated execution uses a Stellite seat facing. Where a valve has been opened and the seat face is marked, the disc is normally inspected in the same breath, because the two components decide together whether the valve will hold once it is closed up again. |
| NS-C double-eccentric butterfly valves | Butterfly valves - NS-C series | Nakakita | Valves | The NS-C series is Nakakita's double-eccentric butterfly valve line, with more than 100,000 units delivered according to the manufacturer. Double-eccentric geometry lifts the disc clear of the seat as it opens, which is why the seat face, rather than the disc, is usually the first component discussed when one of these valves is opened up. |
| PTFE-seated valves | NS-C - PTFE-seated execution | Nakakita | Valves | The PTFE-seated execution is the third seat variant offered on the NS-C series. It is the execution most often mis-stated in an enquiry, since a PTFE seat and a rubber seat are not always obvious from a photograph taken with the valve closed; a photograph of the seat face with the disc part-open removes the doubt. |
| Resilient seated valves | NS-C - rubber-seated execution | Nakakita | Valves | The rubber-seated execution of the NS-C series takes its own seats and seat rings. Two valves of the same nominal size will not share seat parts across executions, so the seat variant is worth stating in the first message rather than discovering it after a quotation has been prepared against the wrong build. |
| Valve remote-control systems | Remote control - cargo, ballast, bilge | Nakakita | Valves | Nakakita also supplies valve remote-control systems for cargo and ballast lines and for bilge piping. On these installations the fault reported from the console and the fault present at the valve are not always the same one, so the actuator, the control medium and the valve itself are described as a set when the request is prepared. |
| Ballast service | Vertical centrifugal | Naniwa | Pumps | Intermittent, high-flow duty with sediment and shell growth in the water. Over service life, wear ring clearance and impeller eye erosion decide how much of the rated duty the pump still delivers. Within a single deballasting operation the limit is different — as tank level falls, available NPSH drops and the pump approaches cavitation or loses suction, which is why ballast sets are commonly backed by a vacuum priming system for stripping. |
| Bilge & general service | Self-priming | Naniwa | Pumps | Recirculation chamber lets the pump clear air from a lifted suction line. Failure to prime is usually traced to loss of the liquid charge in the priming chamber, air ingress at suction line joints, mud box covers or valve glands, or a leaking gland and scored sleeve. Worn impeller front clearance also matters directly here — in a self-priming pump that clearance is what generates the vacuum, so it is checked before the pump is condemned. |
| Central fresh water cooling | Vertical centrifugal | Naniwa | Pumps | Closed-circuit duty running near-continuously. Wear is slower than on the sea water side, so the recurring items are the mechanical seal, bearings and casing gasket rather than the hydraulic parts. |
| Close-coupled vs separately coupled | Drive arrangement | Naniwa | Pumps | Some units carry the impeller on an extended motor or stub shaft; others use an intermediate shaft, rigid coupling and its own bearing housing on the pump. The two arrangements need different shafts, sleeves and bearing covers even at the same hydraulic size. |
| Fire & emergency fire | Vertical centrifugal | Naniwa | Pumps | Class-surveyed duty tested against a required pressure at a stated number of jets. Restoring a failed pressure test is generally a wear ring, impeller and seal question, and the survey context decides which route is acceptable. Note the split: the main fire pump sits in the machinery space, while the emergency fire pump is a separate unit sited outside it with an independent driver and its own priming arrangement, so its parts list and its survey context are not the same. |
| Packed gland vs mechanical seal | Sealing arrangement | Naniwa | Pumps | Older units frequently left the yard with a packed gland and lantern ring; many have since been converted to a cartridge mechanical seal. Confirm what is actually installed — the conversion changes the sleeve and the stuffing box parts, not only the seal. |
| Sanitary & domestic water | Self-priming / centrifugal | Naniwa | Pumps | Small-frame units cycling on a pressure switch. Frequent starts load the bearings and seal faces, so ball bearings, seal kits and the lip seals and O-rings in the bearing covers are the common replacements. Short-cycling on this duty usually points at a waterlogged hydrophore tank rather than the pump. |
| Sea water cooling | Vertical centrifugal | Naniwa | Pumps | Motor mounted on top of a lantern-type motor stool, single-stage impeller drawing from the sea chest line. Typically a cast iron casing with bronze (BC6 / CAC406) impeller and wear rings, stainless steel shaft, and a renewable sleeve through the stuffing box. Some sea water builds are all-bronze or aluminium-bronze — confirm from the nameplate or the section drawing. Impeller vane erosion and wear ring opening dominate the overhaul list. |
| 297 frames | Frame range | Napier | Turbochargers | 297-frame requests arrive written as NA297 or simply as “297” copied from a stores list. The 297 and 357 frames belong to the NA 7 Series (NA297, NA307, NA357, NA397); Napier’s NT machines are designated differently (NT1-10, NT1-12, NT1-14, NT2-26, NT2-28), so confirm the full designation as stamped before a rotor, cartridge or nozzle ring line is quoted. |
| 357 frames | Frame range | Napier | Turbochargers | Larger-frame 357 requests are typically overhaul-driven: blade sets, nozzle rings, thrust arrangements and casing hardware quoted together against one docking window. |
| Blading and nozzle ring | Gas side | Napier | Turbochargers | Heavy fuel ash and unburnt residue build on the turbine blades and on the nozzle ring vanes, then erode them. Thermal cycling adds cracking at the vane trailing edges and root fillets. Blades sit in machined roots with locking hardware, so a damaged set is normally treated as a set, not as a single replacement blade. |
| Complete cartridge requests | Assembly level | Napier | Turbochargers | A cartridge line covers the balanced rotor with its bearing housing and seals as one package. Exchange or core-return conditions attached to that route are read line by line during review. |
| Compressor wheel and diffuser | Air side | Napier | Turbochargers | Oil mist, salt and dust glaze the compressor wheel and the diffuser passages, blunting the blading and pushing the machine toward surging. Tip rub after a bearing problem leaves witness marks on the shroud line. Wheel and diffuser are matched to the frame build, so both are usually reviewed together. |
| Filter silencer and casing hardware | Intake and casings | Napier | Turbochargers | A loaded filter silencer starves the machine of air and drags efficiency down before anything mechanical fails. On the hot side, gas-inlet and gas-outlet casings suffer distortion, gasket-face erosion and stud damage over repeated overhauls, and casing hardware is worth listing in the same RFQ as the rotating parts. |
| Journal and thrust bearings, seals | Rotor support | Napier | Turbochargers | Plain journal bearings and the thrust arrangement depend on clean, uninterrupted oil. Contamination, a short oil interruption on shutdown or a blocked supply line shows up as bearing wear, rising vibration and then rotor contact. Worn labyrinth seals let oil migrate toward the gas path or exhaust gas into the bearing space. |
| Medium-speed auxiliary sets | Engine duty | Napier | Turbochargers | Auxiliary and propulsion four-stroke installations. Provide the engine make and type alongside the turbocharger plate — the same frame is built to different specifications for different engine applications. |
| Multi-engine gensets and propulsion sets | Engine duty | Napier | Turbochargers | Where several medium-speed engines in one machinery space carry the same frame, state whether the RFQ covers one machine or the full set, and whether the units carry different build or rotation records after earlier renewals. |
| NA axial machines | Napier NA 7 Series | Napier | Turbochargers | The long-running axial family — NA297, NA307, NA357 and NA397 — found on both propulsion and generator duty. Requests usually open with a rotor assembly, turbine blading, a nozzle ring or a bearing set rather than a single fastener. |
| NT axial machines | Napier NT Series | Napier | Turbochargers | A separate, later axial product line (NT1-10, NT1-12, NT1-14), not a continuation of the 7-Series frames. Higher pressure ratios and its own sizing and drawing set — nothing crosses over from an NA machine. Copy the NT designation exactly as stamped, including the size suffix, for example NT1-12. |
| Older and out-of-production frames | Legacy frames | Napier | Turbochargers | Machines no longer in current production are reviewed against the evidence the vessel actually holds: plate photographs, old overhaul reports and clearance records rather than assumed catalogue continuity. |
| GX-3R and GX-3R Pro - compact personal instruments | Portable · GX-3R series | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | Small enough to be worn rather than carried. The Pro can be configured for as many as five gases, combining LEL, oxygen, hydrogen sulphide and carbon monoxide with a toxic option such as HCN, NH3, NO2, PH3, SO2 or CO2, which is why two instruments with the same name on the case can need entirely different cells. |
| GX-9000 and GX-9000H - expandable four to six gas | Portable · GX-9000 series | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | Leaves the works with the four standard gases O2, H2S, CO and HC and two further sensor slots that may or may not have been filled on board. The GX-9000H is a high-range hydrogen sulphide variant aimed at oil tankers, so the range, not only the gas, has to be stated when a cell is requested. |
| Multi-gas and VOC portables | Portable · GX-6000 & GX-Force | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | The GX-6000 covers as many as six gases including volatile organic compounds, which brings a different sensor family into the same instrument. The GX-Force is a four-gas instrument. Both are ordered by the gases actually fitted rather than by the maximum the body will accept. |
| RX-8500 - LNG cargo monitoring | Portable · cargo duty | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | Built for LNG carrier cargo monitoring with an infrared methane sensor covering 0-100% LEL and 0-100% by volume with autoranging. An infrared sensor is a different part from the catalytic element used elsewhere for combustibles, and is treated as its own line on an enquiry. |
| SC-01 - single toxic-gas monitor | Fixed · single-gas | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | Built around interchangeable smart sensors that the monitor recognises automatically, so changing the target gas does not call for reconfiguration. That design turns the sensor into a routine consumable, and makes the target gas and range the decisive fields on the RFQ line rather than the monitor type. |
| SD-1 - smart transmitter and detector head | Fixed · detector heads | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | A fixed head with an integrated display, measuring combustibles such as methane and hydrocarbons alongside toxic hydrogen sulphide and carbon monoxide. Because the head carries its own display and smart sensor, the sensor and the transmitter are separable items on a parts list. |
| SD-3 - fixed marine detection system | Fixed · ship systems | Riken Keiki | Gas detection | Installed for engine rooms, pump rooms, bilge areas, ballast tanks and accommodation spaces. A system enquiry usually reaches a supplier as a list of heads, sensors and calibration items for several spaces at once rather than as a single part. |
| Ballast service | Duty | Shinko | Pumps | Intermittent, heavily loaded, often run with air entrained during stripping. Seal faces and shaft sleeves take the damage, and wear ring clearance opens faster than the running hours alone would suggest. |
| Bilge and general service | Duty | Shinko | Pumps | Solids in the pumped medium score seal faces and sleeves. Many of these units still run gland packing, so packing rings, the lantern ring and the sleeve are listed together with the gland studs and nuts. |
| Cooling seawater service | Duty | Shinko | Pumps | The hardest life of any pump on board. Bronze impellers suffer cavitation and erosion-corrosion at the vane inlet edges and in the suction eye, wear rings open up, and seal faces suffer from silt drawn through the sea chest. Casing material on the nameplate must be read before any wetted part is requested. |
| Fire service | Duty | Shinko | Pumps | Rarely run, surveyed regularly, and expected to reach rated head on demand. Requests are usually driven by a survey finding on capacity or on gland leakage, so the head and capacity figures on the nameplate belong in the RFQ. |
| Fresh water cooling service | Duty | Shinko | Pumps | Cleaner water, longer intervals, but seal faces still glaze and coupling rubbers still harden with engine-room heat. Requests here are typically seal kit, gasket set and bearings rather than complete hydraulic components. |
| Horizontal single-stage designations | Horizontal | Shinko | Pumps | Horizontal single-stage set on a bedplate with a flexible coupling to the motor. Bearings sit in a separate bracket and the set is back pull-out, so the rotating element, sleeve and bearings can be withdrawn with the casing and pipework left connected. Casing and cover gaskets are usually renewed at the same opening. Designations vary across the horizontal range, so the code cast or stamped on the machine is read from the pump rather than assumed from the duty. |
| KV designation | Vertical | Shinko | Pumps | Vertical arrangement with the shaft carried on bearings in the bracket above the casing. Where the design includes a priming arrangement, the priming chamber joints, the non-return valve and the air separator internals belong in the same request; whether they apply is read from the pump section drawing rather than assumed. Seal face condition, wear ring clearance and bearing bracket wear drive most of the requests raised against these pumps. |
| RVP designation | Vertical in-line | Shinko | Pumps | Motor mounted above the casing on a spacer bracket, suction and discharge on a common horizontal axis. Chosen where floor plate space is short. Wear parts move as a group: impeller, casing wear ring, mechanical seal, shaft sleeve and coupling rubbers. |
| 30 bar starting-air duty | Duty context | Sperre | Air compressors | Starting-air frames are normally rated around 30 bar to the receiver, with an interstage relief valve, a final safety valve and a non-return valve in the delivery line. Relief settings and the delivery-line arrangement belong in the enquiry. |
| HL2/77 | Sperre HL family · air-cooled | Sperre | Air compressors | Compact air-cooled two-stage frame typical of smaller vessels, standby duty and topping-up service on a second receiver. There is no cooling-water jacket to drain here — the cylinders are finned castings. Short filling cycles make valve plates and piston ring sets the items most often replaced on this frame. |
| HL2/105 · HL2/120 | Sperre HL family · air-cooled | Sperre | Air compressors | Mid-range HL2 frames. Requests can cover valve plate and spring sets, piston ring sets, gudgeon-pin bushes, and the gasket and O-ring set needed to close the unit after a top overhaul. State whether the frame is splash-lubricated or carries a crankshaft-driven oil pump. |
| HV1 / HV2 — vertical two-stage, water-cooled | Sperre HV family · water-cooled | Sperre | Air compressors | Vertical frames with a large-bore first stage and a small-bore second stage on one crankshaft, jacket-cooled and coupled to a foot-mounted motor. Wear concentrates in the valve plates and in the second-stage ring pack, which works against the highest differential pressure in the machine and takes any moisture carried over from the intercooler. |
| HV2/120 · HV2/140 | Sperre HV2 series | Sperre | Air compressors | Mid-capacity twin-cylinder frames on general cargo, ferry and offshore tonnage. Enquiries usually cover suction and discharge valve assemblies for both stages, ring sets, and the intercooler nest between the stages. |
| HV2/210 | Sperre HV2 series | Sperre | Air compressors | A larger water-cooled HV2 frame commonly rated for 30 bar starting air. HV2/210 requests can include first- and second-stage liners, complete valve assemblies, connecting-rod bearing shells and the crankshaft seal. Confirm the serial and rated pressure from the plate. |
| Moisture carryover into the second stage | Cooling and drains | Sperre | Air compressors | If the intercooler drain is neglected the separated condensate is carried forward with the charge; and if cooling water runs hotter than the design point, moisture stays as vapour past the separator and condenses in the second stage and the receiver. Water strips the oil film off the second-stage bore, accelerates ring and liner wear, scores the running surface and corrodes the valve seats. The same neglect leaves oil carryover and carbonised deposits in the delivery line, the recognised precursor to a starting-air line explosion. A unit that consumes rings twice as fast as its sister machine is usually telling you about drains, not about the rings. |
| Older HV1 and HL2 frames | Earlier builds | Sperre | Air compressors | Long-serving HV1 and HL2 units still run on coasters, fishing vessels and harbour craft. Valve and liner details changed across build years, so a part-book page or an earlier order line for the same serial carries more weight than the frame name. |
| Ring pack and bearing wear | Running gear | Sperre | Air compressors | Blow-by past the first-stage rings shows up as crankcase pressure and rising oil consumption before it shows up as lost capacity. Once the ring pack collapses, blow-by and skirt contact scuff the bore and the piston has to come out with the rings. Further down, big-end shells and gudgeon-pin bushes lose clearance, oil delivery to the running gear falls off, and the crankshaft seal begins to weep onto the tank top. |
| Unloader and safety valve faults | Control and protection | Sperre | Air compressors | A sticking unloader lets the machine start against full delivery pressure, which trips the motor overload and loads the bearings on every start. Safety and relief valves that have been lifting repeatedly rarely reseat cleanly afterwards. Both belong on the parts list whenever a top overhaul is planned rather than being left for a second enquiry. |
| Valve plate fatigue from short cycling | Valve gear | Sperre | Air compressors | The thin concentric plate flexes against its seat on every revolution. When a receiver non-return valve leaks back, or when air consumption keeps the machine cutting in and out, the plate accumulates cycles far faster than the running-hour counter suggests. The result is a fatigue crack, then a broken plate, then debris carried into the second stage. Symptoms are longer filling time and a hot delivery line. The interstage gauge tells you which stage: pressure below normal points to a first-stage valve, pressure above normal — up to the interstage relief lifting — points to a second-stage valve or a fouled intercooler. |
| Working and service-air frames | Duty context | Sperre | Air compressors | Lower-pressure service-air machines from the same families use a different unloader arrangement and pressure-switch setting. State the duty, because two frames with the same designation can carry different control components. |
| 15 ppm bilge alarm and oil-content meter | Taiko separator line · monitoring | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | The measuring cell, its optics or sensing window, and the alarm unit form their own identity on board, usually with a separate plate and a separate type approval certificate from the separator itself. |
| Solenoid and three-way valve group | Taiko separator line · control group | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | Automatic oil discharge to the sludge tank, flushing-water admission where the arrangement includes it, and the overboard-or-recirculate decision run through this group. The automatic stopping device that returns flow to the bilge holding tank on a 15 ppm alarm sits here too. Coil voltage, port size and body material must be read from the fitted item, not inferred. |
| Taiko cooling circulation unit | Taiko pump line · jacket and central cooling | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | A jacket or central cooling unit runs continuously, so its request pattern is bearings, seal and coupling insert on a running-hours interval rather than hydraulic wear. Send running hours since the last seal change and say whether the weep shows at the seal or at the casing joint — that single observation decides whether the shaft sleeve goes into the request alongside the seal. |
| Taiko fire and combined bilge/fire unit | Taiko pump line · fire and emergency | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | On a Taiko fire or combined bilge/fire unit the number that decides the job is not rated head but the pressure held at the two most remote hydrants during the drill, because that is the figure the attending surveyor writes down. Ring clearance is what erodes it between drills. Send the drill pressure reading with the ring and impeller request and the scope usually settles in one exchange. |
| Taiko self-priming unit on bilge and drain duty | Taiko pump line · bilge and drain | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | Self-priming construction clears air from a dry suction line only as long as the priming chamber holds its liquid charge. So the request here is almost never the impeller: it is the priming-chamber internals, the non-return seat and the casing joint gasket — a Taiko unit on drain duty loses prime through a weeping joint long before it loses hydraulic performance. Send the suction lift the unit is asked to hold and the priming time recorded at the last test. |
| Taiko single-stage seawater centrifugal on ballast and GS duty | Taiko pump line · ballast and general service | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | The renewable ring pair is what an overhaul on this line consumes, not the impeller. Record the diametral ring clearance measured at the last opening and the shaft diameter at the seal from the Taiko sectional drawing — those two figures alongside the plate capacity in m³/h close a ring-and-impeller request with no part number at all. |
| US series 15 ppm bilge separator | Taiko separator line · US series | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | Coalescer-type 15 ppm bilge separator: gravity stage, coalescing stage, oil-collecting space, level sensing and an automatic oil drain to the sludge tank. Rated throughput is read from the plate, because element sizing and cartridge count follow it. The series designation on the fitted unit is taken from the plate photograph rather than from the spares list. |
| USH series 15 ppm bilge separator | Taiko separator line · USH series | Taiko Kikai | Pumps | The same 15 ppm bilge discharge task under a second Taiko series designation. What the suffix encodes is confirmed against the maker's own literature for the fitted unit rather than inferred here, and rated throughput is again read from the plate because element sizing and cartridge count follow it. |
| H-63 | H-series | Tanabe | Air compressors | Two-stage water-cooled starting-air compressor in the H family. Valve assemblies, ring sets and intercooler tube stacks are the recurring line items on requests naming this machine. |
| H-64 | H-series | Tanabe | Air compressors | H-family machine in a different size band from the H-63, so seat diameters and ring sections can differ between the two. Confirm the machine number stamped on the crankcase before rings or liners are ordered. |
| H-73 | H-series | Tanabe | Air compressors | Larger H-family frame, seen where the main engine air receivers call for a higher charging rate. Requests commonly cover main and crankpin bearing shells, ring sets and delivery valve assemblies. |
| H-74 | H-series | Tanabe | Air compressors | H-family machine in the larger size band. Aftercooler tube stacks, unloader components and lubricating oil pump parts appear alongside the standard valve and ring scope. |
| Nameplate missing | Unlabelled or repainted units | Tanabe | Air compressors | Where the plate has been painted over or replaced, the machine can still be narrowed down from crankcase casting marks, cylinder centre distance, flywheel diameter and photographs of the valve cages and cooler end covers. |
| D6-370 | Volvo Penta D-Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | 6-cylinder inline marine diesel, 370 hp. Pistons, cylinder liners, injectors, turbocharger components, heat exchanger elements, gasket sets. |
| D8-510 | Volvo Penta D-Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | 8-cylinder commercial inboard, 510 hp. Cylinder heads, valve assemblies, fuel injection pumps, crankshaft bearings, intercooler components, overhaul kits. |
| D11-670 | Volvo Penta D-Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | 11-litre 6-cylinder heavy-duty marine diesel, 670 hp. Piston ring sets, liner kits, exhaust valve seats, injection nozzles, cooling water pump assemblies. |
| D13-800 | Volvo Penta D-Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | D13-800 RFQs can include cylinder head gaskets, connecting-rod bearings, fuel-pump plungers, turbocharger cartridges and lube-oil-system parts. Confirm build evidence. |
| D13-1000 | Volvo Penta D-Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | Top-output D13 configuration, 1000 hp. High-performance piston crowns, exhaust valve assemblies, injection equipment, camshaft drive components, complete overhaul kits. |
| TAD series | Volvo Penta TAD Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | TAD1640, TAD1641, TAD1642, TAD1643 and related RFQs can include engine, fuel, cooling and overhaul components. Confirm the complete model suffix, serial/build and installed application. |
| TWD series | Volvo Penta TWD Series | Volvo Penta | Engines | Heavy-duty turbocharged and aftercooled industrial diesel — TWD1240, TWD1643 and variants. Cylinder liners, piston assemblies, heads, injection parts, cooling systems. |
| Sulzer RTA Series | Sulzer Two-stroke | Wärtsilä | Engines | Legacy slow-speed main engines — RTA48T, RTA52U, RTA58T, RTA72U. Cylinder liners, piston rings, fuel pumps, exhaust valves, crosshead parts. |
| Wärtsilä 20 | Wärtsilä Medium-speed | Wärtsilä | Engines | Compact in-line auxiliary engine. Cylinder heads, piston rings, injection nozzles, camshaft bearings, turbocharger cartridges. |
| Wärtsilä 26 | Wärtsilä Medium-speed | Wärtsilä | Engines | Auxiliary and propulsion diesel. Cylinder liners, exhaust valve assemblies, fuel pumps, crankshaft bearing shells, gasket sets. |
| Wärtsilä 34DF | Wärtsilä Dual-fuel | Wärtsilä | Engines | Dual-fuel medium-speed engine. Standard mechanical parts — pistons, liners, cylinder heads, injection pumps — sourced on request. |
| Wärtsilä 50DF | Wärtsilä Dual-fuel | Wärtsilä | Engines | Large-bore dual-fuel main engine. Cylinder kits, fuel injection components, exhaust system parts, cooling circuit spares. |
| ZA40S | Sulzer / Wärtsilä | Wärtsilä | Engines | Medium-speed auxiliary and propulsion engine. Cylinder heads, fuel injection pumps, valve timing components, turbocharger parts, gasket sets. |
| 723 Plus Digital Control | Reciprocating engine control · 723 Plus | Woodward | Control and governors | Digital control for gas, diesel and dual-fuel reciprocating engines, used with its own compatible actuator. Control cards for these systems are requested separately from the control itself. |
| 2301A and 2301D Load Sharing and Speed Controls | Digital speed & load control · 2301 | Woodward | Control and governors | Load Sharing and Speed Control systems, typically paired with an actuator such as an EGB or a UG-Actuator. The control and the actuator are separate items commercially, but they identify each other technically. |
| 3161 Governor | Mechanical-hydraulic · legacy | Woodward | Control and governors | The legacy 3161 governor, carried alongside the UG range in isochronous or droop configuration. Like the UG series it is still catalogued individually by marine parts brokers, so a nameplate photograph is often enough to begin identification. |
| easYgen 2000, 3000 and 3200XT controllers | Genset paralleling · easYgen | Woodward | Control and governors | Paralleling and load-sharing controllers for genset switchboards. On these units the switchboard arrangement is part of the request, since the controller is identified by what it parallels as much as by its own type. |
| EG-3P and EG-3PC proportional actuators | Electronic actuators · EG series | Woodward | Control and governors | Proportional actuators driven from an electronic speed control. They are frequently the retrofit half of an installation whose governor body is decades older, so the actuator and the control it answers to are worth naming together. |
| EGB actuators and the UG-Actuator retrofit unit | Electronic actuators · EGB and UG-Actuator | Woodward | Control and governors | EGB actuators, and the UG-Actuator retrofit unit with its own self-contained oil sump. Both appear as the driven element under a 2301A or 2301D control, and both are also requested as standalone spares. |
| PGA-EG and PGG-EG governor bodies | Marine governor bodies · PGA-EG, PGG-EG | Woodward | Control and governors | Hydro-mechanical governor bodies with electronic control and pneumatic backup tracking, rated for a range of marine engine sizes. The backup arrangement is part of the identity of the unit and should be stated on the enquiry. |
| ProAct Digital and Digital Plus, and LECM modules | Large-engine control · ProAct, LECM | Woodward | Control and governors | ProAct Digital and Digital Plus controllers for governing, sequencing and protection on large reciprocating engines in marine propulsion, and LECM engine control modules with validated gas, diesel and dual-fuel application software. |
| UG-8, UG-10, UG-15 and UG-25 Universal Governors | Mechanical-hydraulic · UG series | Woodward | Control and governors | Universal Governor units in isochronous or droop configuration, still catalogued individually as ship spares. They sit on older diesel drives and on steam-turbine drives, which is why the driven machine matters as much as the governor designation itself. |
| 6AYL-ET | Yanmar AYL Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6AYL-ET RFQs can include cylinder heads, valve assemblies, injection pumps, heat-exchanger elements and mounting seals. Confirm the installed governor and build evidence. |
| 6AYL-HT | Yanmar AYL Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6AYL-HT RFQs can include piston rings, liner O-rings, crankshaft bearings, connecting-rod fasteners and lube-oil-system components. Confirm installed configuration. |
| 6EY22 | Yanmar EY Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6EY22 RFQs can include pistons, exhaust valves, fuel pumps, turbocharger components, governor and speed-control parts. Confirm serial/build and part evidence. |
| 6HAL-DT | Yanmar HAL Series | Yanmar | Engines | Direct turbocharged HAL auxiliary. Compact high-speed configuration. Piston ring sets, liner kits, injector nozzles, gasket sets, water pump assemblies. |
| 6MAL-HT | Yanmar MAL Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6MAL-HT RFQs can include cylinder head assemblies, valve seat inserts, injection equipment, turbocharger interface parts and overhaul kits. Confirm serial/build evidence. |
| 6N18 | Yanmar N Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6N18 RFQs can include cylinder liners, piston crowns, exhaust valve seats, fuel injectors, intercooler elements and overhaul kits. Confirm serial/build evidence. |
| 6N21 | Yanmar N Series | Yanmar | Engines | 6N21 RFQs can include cylinder heads, main bearings, camshaft-drive parts, fuel injection pumps and turbocharger cartridges. Confirm serial/build evidence. |
