MAIN ENGINE SAFETY SYSTEM
THE ME SAFETY SYSTEM IS DESIGNED FOR PROTECTING THE DIESEL
ENGINE AGAINST BREAKDOWN UNDER CONDITIONS DIFFERENT FROM
THOSE OF NORMAL OPERATION.
THE SYSTEM CONSIST OF TWO INDEPENDENT SUB SYSTEMS :
SLOWDOWN SYSTEM - PROVIDES LOAD SHEDDING FOR A TWO-
STROKE REVERSIBLE ENGINE WITH OUTPUT TO A FIXED PITCH
PROPELLER,BY REDUCING ENGINE RPM.
STUTDOWN SYSTEM - STOPS THE ENGINE BY CUTTING-OFF THE
FUEL [Link] OPERATES AFTER A TIME DELAY OF 10 SECS.
AFTER ACTUATION OF THE SYSTEM THE SAFETY RESET
BUTTON MUST BE PRESSED TO UNLOCK.
