MAN B&W
The L16/24 engine has a 450-990 kW power range and operates at 1200 rpm, but uses the same fuel as the vessel's propulsion engines, reducing overall cost.
Each complete cylinder assembly can be removed as a unit for main- tenance or replacement, and mounts reduce vibration.

Shell
Shell Alexia LS is cylinder oil with a lower Base Number (BN), ensuring lubri- cation of modern low speed engines when burning Low Sulphur Fuel
Oil. Its low BN means that the cor- rect surface properties of cylinder liners are maintained and excessive piston deposits are avoided. Shell
Alexia LS has good detergency and dispersancy. Circle 120
Furuno
Furuno’s dual- frequency searchlight sonar CH-300 is designed for a wide range of vessels. It incorpo- rates both a low and a high fre- quency (60/153 or 85/215 kHz) transducer in one soundome. The high frequencies give a detailed search near and all around the ves- sel. Circle 123
