Large gas and diesel engines are used for many purposes, i.e. trains, ships and for local power generation. In all cases, foundations for these engines must be both economical and effective. Elastic support of this equipment meets these requirements.
During operation, some of the oscillating forces and moments generated by the engine are balanced internally; remaining forces and moments are transmitted into the foundation.
*G4 : four-way solenoid slide valve for fast
engine ignition and shutdown, having both an
E.T.R. (Energized To Run) mode and an E.T.S.
(Energized To Stop) mode operation.
During engine shutdown, the suction from the fuel
supply pump is used to withdraw fuel from the
injection pump.
