Cleaning and Dosing Equipment

Air Cooler Cleaner Injection System

Unitor air cooler cleaner Injection System Layout

Tests show that vessels using this type of injection
equipment with chemical cleaners such as air cooler
cleaner suffer no degradation of cylinder lubrication
and liner wear rates are not increased.
As the air cooler size and position, (baffle plates etc.)
vary from engine to engine, Unitor service engineers
can help you find the optimum solution for placing the
injectors.
Large engines will normally require two injectors per
cooler, but one injector is usually sufficient for medium
and small engines.

Consisting of:
1. Stainless steel 6 litre container
2. Injector

Dosing Procedure
1.

Check that valves A, B & C are closed

2.

Thoroughly mix up a 25% solution of air cooler cleaner and fresh water and pour this into the
dosing pot.

3.

Open valve 'A' allowing compressed air to the injector nozzle(s).

4.

When two injectors are installed, the air cooler cleaner solution should be dosed separately to
each injector. Turn the 'T' valves D and E to the correct line to supply the injector.

5.

Open valves 'B' and 'C' to balance the pressure. The emulsion solution will now be drawn
down into the injector and be atomised in the scavenge air trunking. It should take about 10
minutes to empty the dosing pot.

6.

Close valves A, B & C.

7.

After a residence time of 10 minutes repeat sequence of operation above using one full dosing
pot fresh water.

8.

Repeat this procedure every 24 to 48 hours, depending on the requirements of the type of
engine and sizes of air coolers.
