Alfa Laval Offers Complete Oil Treatment at SMM

The FCM is fully automated with extensive remote monitoring and control possibilities. Control equipment is mounted in a central cabinet for maximum accessibility and service areas have been included for easy maintenance.

In the FCM, the new generation of Alfa Laval controllers, the EPC 50B, provides full automation of all control functions. Process information can be displayed on the operator panel, in the engine control room or the ship’s automation system. The FCM can be matched with Alfa Laval’s Separation Unit (SU) to complete the oil treatment chain from bunker tanks to main engine.

The SU is designed to clean a wide range of fuel and lubricating oils for all types of marine diesel engine, its high separation efficiency ensuring optimum removal of harmful contaminants.

This in turn means a high level of protection for the diesel engine, longer service intervals and reduced spare part consumption.

A major benefit of the SU is its contribution to reducing the impact of ship operation on the environment.

Total discharged waste is reduced by a claimed two thirds compared with conventional separators.

Alfa Laval will be at stand 5016 in hall 5 at SMM.
