<strong>Geislinger</strong> <strong>Gets</strong> <strong>DNV</strong> <strong>Type</strong> <strong>Approval</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />
<strong>Vdamp</strong><br />
<strong>Geislinger</strong> received type approval <strong>for</strong> its<br />
recently introduced <strong>Vdamp</strong> product range by<br />
the classification society Det Norske Veritas.<br />
Thursday, June 25, 2009<br />
It also facilitates the use of <strong>Geislinger</strong><br />
Dampers in 2-stroke applications, where the<br />
<strong>Vdamp</strong> protects the propeller or camshaft<br />
from damage by torsional vibrations. In such<br />
applications the damper is a crucial safety<br />
element and has to be classified, contrary to 4-stroke engines, where this is in general not the<br />
case. But also <strong>for</strong> these applications the <strong>DNV</strong> type approval <strong>for</strong> the <strong>Geislinger</strong> <strong>Vdamp</strong> provides a<br />
safe feeling, to have made the right choice with <strong>Geislinger</strong>.<br />
<strong>Geislinger</strong> claims to have carried out extensive research and testing on the silicone oils used –<br />
with the result of a revolutionary calculation model <strong>for</strong> viscous dampers. The damper can be<br />
optimized in a better way compared to current solutions, to perfectly suit the torsional vibration<br />
behaviour of the system.<br />
<strong>Geislinger</strong> is a leading supplier <strong>for</strong> torsional vibration dampers and elastic couplings <strong>for</strong><br />
high-output diesel and gas engines. With its worldwide subsidiaries and vast know-how,<br />
<strong>Geislinger</strong> is acknowledged as development partner and problem solver close to the market. This<br />
innovative environment permanently leads to refined solutions like the Gesilco fibre composite<br />
products.<br />
