The spare part 100132, which is a shim for the cylinder liner in the Wärtsilä 20 engine, serves a critical purpose in engine maintenance and performance:
Cylinder Liner Adjustment: Shims are used to adjust the protrusion (or height) of the cylinder liner relative to the engine block. This adjustment is crucial for ensuring proper alignment and sealing between the cylinder liner and other engine components.
Compression and Seal: Proper alignment of the cylinder liner affects the compression ratio of the engine cylinders. Shims help maintain the correct compression ratio by adjusting the liner's position, ensuring efficient combustion and engine performance. They also help in achieving a proper seal to prevent gas leakage and maintain optimal pressure within the cylinder.
Wear Compensation: Over time, due to engine wear or other factors, the cylinder liner may require adjustment to maintain optimal performance. Shims allow for precise adjustments without needing to replace the entire cylinder liner assembly, thus reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
Precision Engine Assembly: During engine assembly or overhaul, shims ensure that each cylinder liner is precisely positioned according to manufacturer specifications. This precision is crucial for achieving uniform engine performance and longevity.
Maintenance and Overhaul: Shims may be inspected and replaced during routine maintenance or engine overhaul to ensure continued performance and reliability. Properly maintained shims contribute to extended engine life and consistent operational efficiency.
In essence, the shim for the cylinder liner (part number 100132) plays a vital role in maintaining the alignment, compression, and sealing of the cylinder within the Wärtsilä 20 engine. It allows for precise adjustment and compensation as needed, ensuring optimal engine performance and reliability throughout its operational life.
