<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 />
