In certain cases, local standards may be applied but all spare parts are interchangeable with parts designed by Everllence.  \nSome components may differ from the design of Everllence because of local production facilities, or the application of local standard components.  \nBedplate and main bearing  \nThe bedplate consists of high welded longitudinal girders and welded cross girders with cast steel bearing supports. Long elastic holding-down bolts and hydraulic tightening tools are used to fit the bedplate to the engine seating in the ship. The bedplate is made with the thrust bearing in the aft end.  \nFor engines mounted on epoxy chocks, the bedplate is made without taper.  \nAn oil pan made of steel plate is welded to the bedplate. The oil pan, collects return oil from the forced lubricating and cooling oil system. Oil outlets from the oil pan are vertical as standard and provided with gratings.  \nThe main bearings consist of thin-walled steel shells lined with white metal.  \nThe main bearing bottom shell can be rotated out and in with special tools and hydraulic tools for lifting the crankshaft. A bearing cap keeps the shells in position.  \nFrame box  \nThe frame box is welded. On the exhaust side of the frame box, a relief valve is mounted for each cylinder. On the manoeuvring side, each cylinder has a large hinged door. Crosshead guides are welded onto the frame box. The frame box is bolted to the bedplate. Stay bolts tighten together bedplate, frame box, and cylinder frame.  \nCylinder frame and stuffing box  \nThe cylinder frame is cast and provided with access covers for:  \n▪ Cleaning the scavenge air space (if required)  \n▪ Inspection of scavenge ports and piston rings from the manoeuvring side. The cylinder frame and cylinder liner forms the scavenge air space. The cylinder frame is fitted with pipes for the piston cooling oil inlet. The scavenge air receiver, turbocharger, air cooler box, and gallery brackets are placed  \non the cylinder frame. The bottom of the cylinder frame contains the piston rod stuffing box with sealing rings for scavenge air, and oil scraper rings preventing crankcase oil from entering the scavenge air space.  \nScavenge air space and piston rod stuffing box drains are located in the bottom of the cylinder frame.  \n1.06 ME-GA engine description  \n1.06 ME-GA engine description  \nCylinder liner  \nA cylinder liner made of alloyed cast iron is suspended in the cylinder frame with a low-situated flange. The top of the cylinder liner is fitted with a cooling jacket. The cylinder liner has scavenge ports, drilled holes for cylinder lubrication and gas admission.  \nOn engines with bore sizes 95-80, the basic design includes cylinder liners prepared for installation of temperature sensors. On all other engines, this liner type is available as an option.  \nCylinder cover  \nThe cylinder cover of forged steel is made in one piece with bores for cooling water. It has a central bore for the exhaust valve, bores for fuel valves, pilot valves, starting valve, and indicator valve.  \nThe bore for the indicator valve is also used for PMI Auto-tuning.  \nCrankshaft  \nThe crankshaft is of the semi-built type made from forged or cast steel throws. Depending on the number of cylinders, the crankshaft may be supplied in two parts.  \nAt the aft end, the crankshaft is provided with:  \n▪ Collar for thrust bearing  \n▪ Flange for gearwheel for step-up gear for the hydraulic power supply unit (if fitted on the engine)  \n▪ Flange for turning wheel, and coupling bolts to the intermediate shaft. At the front end, the crankshaft has a collar for an axial vibration damper anda flange for fitting a tuning wheel. The flange can also be used for a potential  \npower take off installation. Normally, coupling bolts and nuts for joining the crankshaft with the intermediate shaft are not supplied.
