Following the introduction of the

Wartsila 200, Wartsila NSD has introduced a second contender in its line of continuous duty, high- speed engines, the Wartsila 170.

The Wartsila 170 was designed to provide high reliability and deliver low fuel consumption at low emissions, while offering high power density and easy mainte- nance.

According to the manufacturer, the cylinder unit and crank gear are the areas in which the reliabil- ity of the medium-speed engine is most visible in Wartsila 170. The piston is a composite design with an aluminum skirt and steel top, and the piston skirt is pressure lubricated — a patented design used in all other Wartsila engines.

The cylinder liner also features an anti-polishing ring, and the combi- nation of the pressure lubricated piston skirt and anti-polishing ring is designed to result in reli- able piston operation and low oil (Continued on page 102)
