MAN B&W 9.02
Basic and minimum setting with Alpha ACC
The recommendations are valid for all plants,
whether controllable pitch or fixed pitch propellers
are used.
Safe and very lubricating�economical control after
running-in <strong>is</strong> obtained with a basic setting according
to the formula:
Basic lubricating oil setting = 0.20 g/kWh x S%
with a minimum setting of 0.60 g/kWh, i.e. the setting
should be kept constant from about 3% sulphur
and downwards.

Due to the sulphur dependency, the average cylinder
oil dosages rely on the sulphur d<strong>is</strong>tribution
in worldwide fuel bunkers. Based on deliveries all
over the world, the resulting yearly specific cylinder
oil dosage <strong>is</strong> close to 0.65 g/kWh.
Further information on cylinder oil as a function of
fuel oil sulphur content and alkalinity of lubricating
oil <strong>is</strong> <strong>available</strong> from MAN Diesel.
