The Wärtsilä 20 engine utilizes the spare part 100079, which is the camshaft bearing bush, for several key reasons critical to its operation and reliability:

Support and Alignment: The camshaft bearing bush provides essential support and alignment for the camshaft within the engine. It ensures that the camshaft rotates smoothly and accurately, maintaining precise timing of the engine's valves. This is crucial for the engine's performance and efficiency.

Reduction of Friction: By providing a bearing surface and often incorporating lubrication, the camshaft bearing bush reduces friction between the camshaft and its housing or bearings. This reduces wear on both the camshaft and the bearing surfaces, extending the operational life of these components.

Vibration and Noise Reduction: Properly functioning camshaft bearing bushes help dampen vibrations and reduce operational noise within the engine. This contributes to smoother engine operation and a quieter overall engine environment.

Maintenance and Replacement: Over time, due to the high rotational speeds and continuous operation, camshaft bearing bushes can wear out. Regular maintenance involves inspecting and, if necessary, replacing these components to prevent issues such as increased friction, improper valve timing, or potential engine damage.

Engine Performance: The camshaft plays a crucial role in controlling the opening and closing of intake and exhaust valves. A properly functioning camshaft bearing bush ensures that the camshaft operates efficiently and accurately, optimizing the engine's performance in terms of power output, fuel efficiency, and emissions.

In summary, the camshaft bearing bush (part number 100079) is essential for maintaining the reliable operation, performance, and longevity of the Wärtsilä 20 engine. It supports the camshaft, reduces friction, minimizes vibrations, and contributes to the overall efficiency and smoothness of engine operation. Regular inspection and replacement with OEM Wärtsilä spare parts are crucial to ensuring optimal performance and durability of the engine over its operational life.
