Differences between MC/MC-C and ME/ME-C engines

The electro-hydraulic control mechanisms of the
ME engine replace the following components of
the conventional MC engine:
• Chain drive for camshaft
• Camshaft with fuel cams, exhaust cams and
indicator cams
• Fuel pump actuating gear, including roller
guides and reversing mechanism
• Conventional fuel pressure booster and VIT system
• Exhaust valve actuating gear and roller guides
• Engine driven starting air distributor
• Electronic governor with actuator
• Regulating shaft
• Engine side control console
• Mechanical cylinder lubricators.

The Engine Control System of the ME engine
comprises:
• Control units
• Hydraulic power supply unit
• Hydraulic cylinder units, including:
• Electronically controlled fuel injection, and
• Electronically controlled exhaust valve activation
• Electronically controlled starting air valves
• Electronically controlled auxiliary blowers
• Integrated electronic governor functions
• Tacho system
• Electronically controlled Alpha lubricators
• Local Operating Panel (LOP)
• MAN Diesel PMI system, type PT/S off-line,
cylinder pressure monitoring system.
The system can be further extended by optional
systems, such as:
• Condition Monitoring System, CoCoS-EDS
