Installation Instructions<br />
As it consistently happens that functioning risks are not realised during the laying of the exhaust hose, the following<br />
explanations refer explicitly to the exhaust hose. Here, the location, the size and the position of the „waterlock“ play<br />
a very decisive part:<br />
5.7.2 Installation area of the waterlock<br />
Concerning a water-cooled exhaust system, it must be regarded that - under no circumstances - cooling water from<br />
the exhaust hose can get into the exhaust elbow area at the engine. If this happens, the cooling water can get into<br />
the combustion chamber via an open discharge valve. This would lead to irreparable damage at the engine.<br />
In addition to that, one has to reckon with possible tilted positions of sailing yachts, which makes the position of the<br />
waterlock even more important. In general one could say that:<br />
The deeper the waterlock is located underneath the generator, the better the protection from entering water into the<br />
combustion chamber.<br />
The pictures below show the distance between the critical point at the exhaust elbow and the maximum permissible<br />
water level in the exhaust hose is stated with 600 mm. This distance should be understood as a minimum distance.<br />
5.7.3 The volume of the waterlock<br />
Fig. 5.7.2-1: Installation area of the waterlock<br />
The waterlock must be measured so large, that it can take the entire amount of water flowing back from the exhaust<br />
hose. The amount of water depends on the hoses’ length (L) and its cross section. While the diesel engine is running,<br />
cooling water is continuously injected into the exhaust system and is carted outside with the emissions by the<br />
