Running-in of new components - general
After an overhaul or an installation of new components of the piston running system, WinGD
recommends a running-in procedure. This makes sure a correct film of cylinder oil on the piston
running system is built. The procedure includes a temporary higher feed rate, refer to
WinGD recommends an inspection of the cylinder liners and of the piston rings after 24 operation
hours and after 72 operation hours (001,
). For this running-in procedure it is not
necessary to have a special loading up apart from vessel specific loading up protocols.
