BWCM consists of sensors, data acquisition units, communication units, a computer, cables, mounting brackets, etc. No complex disassembly or on-site measurement is required, as it adopts a real-time monitoring mode. It effectively performs real-time measurement, data analysis, processing, and storage of wear signals from main bearings, crankpin bearings, and crosshead bearings.
When lubricating oil is contaminated with impurities such as water, the degree of oil emulsification increases. This makes the oil more prone to vaporization at higher temperatures, leading to bubble formation. This not only breaks down the oil film and damages the bearing shell but also easily creates vapor locks, affecting the normal circulation of the lubricating oil circuit.
By using a specialized oil-in-water sensor to detect water content in the lubricating oil, we can provide early warning and avoid unnecessary damage.
The diesel engine connecting rod bearing shell is a moving component subjected to the greatest mechanical loads and reciprocating inertial forces. It is also the most wear-prone part, constantly affected by abrasive wear, adhesive wear, fretting wear, fatigue wear, erosion wear, chemical wear, etc.
Under normal operating conditions, it cannot be inspected directly. When the bearing shell becomes abnormal due to wear, its oil temperature will inevitably rise. By monitoring the temperature of the splashed lubricating oil, we can diagnose whether a diesel engine fault has occurred.
