Control Valve Streamlines Marine Diesels
01 Nov 2005
The new Yanmar ECO Diesel range of low emission marine engines has been developed with an AMOT custom designed self-actuating temperature control valve for the water cooling system.
For the project, Yanmar required a design that enabled the production of a more compact engine where the thermostatic valve was installed 'within the envelope' of the engine instead of outside it. Using proven AMOT thermostatic valve technology, AMOT developed a customised valve housing which allowed for maximum flow and minimum pressure drop. The low friction characteristics plus vibration and shock resistance also ensure a long and reliable service life.
