Caterpillar Engine Division of- fers five series—3200, 3300, 3400, 300, and 3500—of diesel engines in 12 basic models applied specifi- cally in marine propulsion and auxiliary power applications. The 3200 series offer ratings from 150 to 315 bhp at 2,400 and 2,800 rpm, respectively. The 3300 series offer ratings from 85 to 290 bhp at 2,000 and 2,200 rpm. The 3400 se- ries offer ratings from 250 to 764 bhp at 1,800 and 2,100 rpm. The 300 series offer ratings from 500 to 1,380 bhp at 1,225 and 1,300 rpm.

The 3500 series offer ratings from 600 to 1,700 bhp at 1,200 and 1,800 rpm.

When Caterpillar goes into pro- duction of its medium-speed 3600 series in 1985, the company will offer four additional models with a continuous output range from 1,700 bhp at 700 rpm to 6,000 bhp at 1,000 rpm.

Time-proven Cat diesel power provides optimum marine propul- sion reliability, efficiency, and economy due to such features as direct injection, adjustment-free fuel systems, and matched turbo- charging and aftercooling to pack more air into cylinders for com- plete combustion and extra power.

Available for all of the main propulsion engines is a complete line of factory-matched marine transmissions to assure opera- tional efficiency. Coordinated de- sign compatibility allows common scheduling of major overhauls, re- ducing repair time and expense.

In addition, Caterpillar offers 11 models of marine generator sets with power outputs and voltages for every vessel's service require- ments. Prime power ratings are of- fered from 85 kw for the 3304B at 1,800 rpm to 1,135 kw at 1,800 rpm for the 3516 (60Hz); 50-Hz ratings are also available from 50 to 1,025 kw. A full range of at- tachments such as power takeoffs, remote-mounted controls, pre- mium instrument panels, and spare parts kits are also available to meet specific user requirements.

Cat marine systems are backed by a worldwide product support system, linked by the industry's most extensive computer and tele- communications network for rapid location of any part required. More than 14,000 trained dealer ser- vicemen are backed by 24 strateg- ically located Cat parts facilities.

Around-the-clock dockside service is available in many ports from technicians and application and installation specialists that use the latest service tools and information.

COLT INDUSTRIES

Major renovations and manufac- turing additions are under way at

Colt Industries, Fairbanks Morse

Engine Division, in Beloit, Wis.

These are in preparation to build the Colt-Pielstick PC4.2V diesel engine for the U.S. Navy's new

Henry J. Kaiser (T-AO-187) Class tanker under construction at

Avondale Shipyards. Included in these new projects are the instal- lation of a 46,900-bhp water brake test stand, a 250-ton bridge crane, and several new machining centers.

Two 10-cylinder PC4.2V diesel engines rated at 16,500 bhp are currently being built for the Navy's

T-AO Tanker Program. The

PC4.2V is rated from 16,270 to 29,286 bhp, and is capable of burn- ing residual fuels of up to 4,000 sec Redwood 1 at 100 F with a vanadium content of 400 ppm.

Fairbanks Morse continues to produce the Colt-Pielstick PC2.3V,

PC2.5V, and PC2.6L in-line and

V-form diesel engines, with rat- ings from 6,420 to 13,266 bhp at 520 rpm. All of these engines are capable of burning heavier grades of residual fuels.

The Colt-Pielstick marine en- gine is readily adaptable to remote control operation and automatic monitoring. Systems have been designed to meet U.S. Coast Guard and American Bureau of Shipping requirements for an unmanned engine room watch. The well- known Fairbanks Morse opposed- piston design is still widely used (continued on page 22)

OPERATING COSTS: combustion improver

Here's news that will save substantial money for shipowners-savings on fuel, down time and maintenance. You already know thai the quality of today's marine fuels, with higher levels of contaminants, not only create operating inefficiencies, but can cause considerable damage to engine parts and leave harmful combustion deposits.

To help solve your fuel problems. Drew Ameroid

Marine has taken the industry lead once again with AMERGIZE' deposit modifier/combustion improver. AMERGIZE is being introduced as part ol a 3-way combination program: a product... a service... and cost-saving offer designed to assure proper application. Available individually, or as a total system worldwide: 1. THE PRODUCT: A deposit modifier and combustion improver in one.

AMERGIZE is a new, specially formulated, concentrated blend of organometallic compounds that combines both combustion improvement and deposit modification in one product. It improves diesel engine combustion. It reduces smoking.

It decreases valve and turboeharger deposits.

AMERGIZE is effective in diesel engines burning today's heavy fuels. AMERGIZE is non-abrasive and does not harm engine parts or close-tolerance, metering equipment.

SPECIAL LIMITED

TIME OFFER

Drew offers a rebate ot one-half the cost of a

Simplex dosing system, worth over $1,000, to customers after one year of using AMERGIZE deposit modifier/ combustion improver.

Today's refiners obtain a higher yield from every barrel of crude they process. Unfortunately, that leaves you with higher concentrations of contaminants-the worst of these are unknown quantities of vanadium, sodium and sulfur.

Drew representatives will assist ship managers in determining specific AMERGIZE treatment rates for bunker fuels high in these harmful contaminants. In addition, Drew Ameroid Marine offers the PACE" program. It provides you with data on the levels of contaminants in your present bunker fuel prior to dosing, and the best course of action to take in handling the fuel with maximum efficiency and minimum cost. Besides being one of the industry's most comprehensive fuel evaluation services, PACE is also the fastest and most economical. 3. THE OFFER: AMERGIZE rebate.

The AMERGIZE rebate offer is one more way of demonstrating the commitment of Drew Ameroid

Marine to helping ships' managers realize maximum cost efficiency. The rebate on the value of half the price of a dosing unit is available after one year of using AMERGIZE. Our purpose? To prove it's a substantial money-saver with proper application.

Documented independent laboratory testsf have shown that AMERGIZE significantly reduces specific fuel consumption, carbon deposits, exhaust smoke levels, and deposits formed in a test bed engine operated on a residual oil blend containing high levels of carbon residue, vanadium, sodium, and sulfur.

AMERGIZE comes in 120 liter and 200 liter containers, and is available through Drew's network of service representatives in strategically located ports worldwide.
