Tilted position 15 degrees
The distance is, contrary to the original 600 mm, only 327 mm. This is very
close to the critical point already.
Tilted position 30 degrees
The water level and the critical point at the exhaust elbow are at the same
level now. If the ship is sailed in a tilted position of 30 degrees with an installation
like that, the infiltration of cooling water into the combustion chamber
is inevitable. Irreparable damages are preprogrammed.

Summary:
Concerning sailing yachts it must be regarded, that the waterlock is mounted in center underneath the generator, at
least in reference to the ships’ center line. Thus the waterlock is prevented from „leaking“ very strongly when the
ship is tilted.
The „leaking“of the waterlock leads to a rise of the water level which then gets too close to the exhaust elbow’s critical
point.
5.8 Exhaust / water separator
In order to reduce the noise level of the generator unit to a minimum, an optional exhaust outlet muffler can be
mounted next to the through-hull fitting. Additionally there is a component at Fischer Panda, which acts as both an
„exhaust goose neck“, and water separator. With this „exhaust/water separator“ the cooling water is derived over a
separate pipe. The exhaust noises emanating from the exterior of the yacht are strongly decreased. Particularly the
„water splash“.
