This week at RS Motor, a new refurbishment job for cogeneration engine components has been carried out. On this occasion, it involves the oil cooler of a Deutz MWM engine which is refurbished with spare parts for Deutz-MWM engines.
MAINTENANCE OF THE OIL COOLER WITH SPARE PARTS FOR DEUTZ-MWM, JENBACHER OR GUASCOR ENGINES
These maintenance processes are conducted by inspecting all components of the cooler and replacing necessary parts with genuine and/or original OEM spare parts for Deutz-MWM, Jenbacher, and Guascor.
The oil cooler is an essential component in any internal combustion engine. Its primary function is to cool the lubricating oil, as the oil, in addition to its lubrication function, also serves as a coolant in the engine. This requires the temperature acquired by the oil to be dissipated to the engine’s cooling medium.
IMPORTANCE OF OIL COOLER MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance of the oil cooler is crucial in the engine, as the oil must maintain its optimal operating temperature. Too high or too low temperatures can cause wear and reduce the engine’s lifespan.
In addition to inadequate cooling, another consequence of poor maintenance in the cooler is oil leaks or the mixing of oil and water, the latter being a significant risk to the engine’s integrity.
OIL COOLER RECONDITIONING PROCESS WITH SPARE PARTS FOR DEUTZ-MWM, JENBACHER OR GUASCOR ENGINES
The refurbishment of a cooler is an essential process to maintain the optimal performance of engines, whether they are DEUTZ/MWM (CAT), Jenbacher, Guascor, or other brands. At RS Motor, our specialized workshop is responsible for carrying out this process with precision and attention to every detail. Here are the operations we perform during the refurbishment:
• Thorough Visual Inspection: Before initiating any operation, we conduct a meticulous visual inspection of the oil cooler to identify potential damage or wear on its exterior.
• Preliminary Hydraulic Testing: To ensure the absence of leaks, we subject the cooler to a preliminary hydraulic test.
• Disassembly of the Cooler: We carefully disassemble the covers, the casing, and the tubular bundle.
• Ultrasonic Cleaning: We use ultrasonic technology to thoroughly clean the tubular bundle and the covers of the heat exchanger, removing any residue, deposits, or impurities.
• Mechanical Cleaning: We perform a mechanical cleaning process on the covers, the body, and the tubular bundle to ensure a surface free of rust and dirt.
• Surface Inspection: We conduct an inspection of the condition of the sealing surfaces and assess whether machining is necessary to recover areas that are eroded or lacking material.
• Thread Repair: If we find damaged threads in the cooler body, we carefully repair them to ensure a precise fit.
• Thread Chasing: We perform meticulous thread chasing on all threads to ensure their proper functioning.
• Review and Replacement of Fasteners: We thoroughly inspect all screws, and if necessary, replace them with new ones to ensure the proper assembly.
• Checking Housings: We meticulously inspect all O-ring and bushing housings to ensure their proper condition.
• Gasket Replacement: We renew gaskets and O-rings to prevent leaks and ensure optimal sealing.
• Complete Assembly: We assemble the oil cooler parts with precision, following the recommended specifications and torques.
• Final Hydraulic Test: Before concluding the refurbishment, we subject the oil cooler to a comprehensive hydraulic test to validate its performance and ensure its tightness before installation in the engine.
• Exterior Painting: We apply a special layer of paint to protect the oil cooler against corrosion and improve its durability.
