A stuffing box in a marine diesel engine is a sealing arrangement used around the piston rod to prevent leakage of gasel,oil or cooling water between two different pressure zones (between the crankcase and scavenge) A small amount of leakage from stuffing box is normal and acceptable. Too much oil leak indicates sealing failure, it may mean the seal ring is worn or the drain is blocked allowing crankcase oil to enter the scavenge space. #makinistaworksph #highlightseveryone #EngineRoomTraining |
