Shell Naturelle Stern Tube Fluid

Shell launched a new range of Environmentally

Acceptable Lubricants (EALs), including Shell Na- turelle S4 Stern Tube Fluid 100, a line designed to enable ships entering U.S. waters to comply with the revised 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP). Shell

Naturelle S4 Stern Tube Fluid 100 is made with ful- ly saturated ester base oil, as the oil major contends that this offers the best resistance to hydrolysis and oxidation. It is also a non-emulsifying fl uid, which allows ship operators to easily drain any water from the stern tube system, preventing hydrolysis and biodegradation of the oil within the equipment.

MES & Quiet Performance

Viking Yachts worked with Marine Exhaust Sys- tems to introduce a con- vertible sportfi shing yacht with a resin-infused hull, the new Viking 92, which employs Marine Exhaust Systems’ TL Linear Series muffl ers to keep the roar of the twin 2,635 hp Tier 3 engines at bay. A muffl er in a tube, the design of

Marine Exhaust Systems’ patented Linear Series muffl er technology are adaptable to the size and horsepower of today’s modern sportfi shing boats, and require less space, creating room for larger fuel tanks or equipment. The Linear Series is suited for an inline application, preferably close to the engine with enough room for a surge tube in front. www.marine-exhaust.com

Air Purifying System

When a 36-m tugboat was converted into a superyacht for polar expeditions, added comfort meant new luxury materials and furniture, but also a state-of-the-art

HVAC system and sound and fi re protected walls. But an occurring smell from the diesel and sewage tank caused comfort re- striction on the newly created sun deck and in the cabins while operating the HVAC systems. Adtim solved these problems by installing two dedicated air purifying systems based on smart plasma tech- nology, one for the HVAC system and one for the air outlet of the sewage treatment plant. The AirPurifi er for the HVAC has a capacity of 1,800 cu. m./hr. www.adtim.nl
