Installation Examples

Exhaust systems with an exhaust silencer type LP/LSS/LSG, and
silencer type MP, goose neck type LT and a transom connection are
shown on page 15.
Entry of water from the aft is almost completely prevented by the
extra height difference in the goose neck.
When the engine is stopped, any water which is still in the exhaust
pipe (between the highest point in the exhaust system and the
exhaust silencer) will run back to the exhaust silencer.
Prevention of syphoning (drawings 5 & 6)
If the water injection point 'C' is below, or less than 15 cm (0.6")
above the waterline (also when the ship heels under sail), there is
a risk that when the engine is stopped, the coolant water will enter
the engine due to syphoning. This syphoning can be prevented in
two ways:
 By creating an air vent system in the coolant water hose between
engine block and water injection point 'C' , by fitting an air vent
with air vent pipe, for example.
 By fitting an air vent (with valve) in the coolant water hose
between the engine block and water injection point 'C' .
