Differences between Air Cooled and Water Cooled Yanmar Compressors
August 27th, 2018Choosing between an air-cooled or water-cooled Yanmar compressor, as described in this post, boat owners have learned to equip their vessels with powerful and reliable auxiliary machines. We’re revisiting this subject, which means we’re putting the two cooling technologies back under the microscope. The goal is to definitively illustrate the differences that exist between air and […]
The Role of Turbo Chargers in Yanmar Marine Diesel Engines
August 17th, 2018At its core, a marine turbocharger is an integral part of a Yanmar marine diesel engine. The prestigious engine brand is clearly designed to excel in its boat propelling duties, but that ability to excel will fall short without this vital drive component. It’s the turbo that ensures the diesel ignition cycle is provided with […]
Mitsubishi VOS Ballast Water Treatment System: The Technology in Water Purification
July 27th, 2018Before international maritime law took control, boat ballast systems could be used as comfy vehicles for tiny hitchhikers. Bio-invasion was a big problem, and it’s still a relevant issue today. However, it’s not a problem that can be solved by installing mechanical filters. Enter the Mitsubishi VOS ballast water treatment system, an active means of stopping boats […]
Uses and Applications of Kemel Propeller Nut
July 11th, 2018Before this post dives into yet another innovative design principle, a cautionary note should be issued. Marine engineers, masters of all things mechanical, they know that hydraulic systems use dangerous pressures. For that reason, high-pressure hydraulic systems must be worked upon with all due care. Having opened with this reproach, we’ve gotten ahead of ourselves. […]
Yanmar Marine Auxiliary Diesel Engines: Purposes and Functions
June 27th, 2018Uninterrupted electrical power flows from bow to stern. A Yanmar marine auxiliary diesel engine is humming away deep inside the boat. Not to be overly dramatic, this equipment is the ship’s lifeline, the vessel’s life support system, in fact. Built by Yanmar, a reliable diesel-fueled auxiliary engine is a multitasking workhorse. It generates electricity, it […]
