ME Engine Emergency Explained: How to Maintain Cylinder Lubrication After CCU Failure (6G60ME-C)

⚙️ What happens when a Cylinder Control Unit (CCU) fails on an ME engine — and stopping the engine immediately is not an option? In this video, i have explained the emergency procedure used onboard MAN B&W ME engines to maintain cylinder lubrication when one cylinder’s CCU fails. Using a practical step-by-step explanation based on the 6G60ME-C10.5 main engine, this video covers how lubrication can be restored directly from the ECU, allowing safe continued engine operation until repairs can be carried out. 🔧 Topics Covered: • CCU vs ECU — roles and functions explained simply • Normal cylinder lubrication control logic • What happens during CCU failure • Emergency lubrication concept and electrical bypass • Temporary cable connection procedure This is a real onboard emergency scenario every marine engineer should understand — especially when navigational safety prevents immediate engine shutdown. 🎯 Ideal for: Marine Engineers | Engine Cadets | ME Engine Operators | Maritime Students | Ship Engineers preparing for oral exams ⚠️ Always follow maker’s manuals and company procedures onboard. 👍 If you found this video useful, support the channel by liking, sharing, and subscribing to *Dead Slow Ahead* for practical marine engineering knowledge. #MarineEngineering #MEEngine #MANB&W #CylinderLubrication #ShipEngineering #MarineDieselEngine #CCUFailure #EngineRoom #MEengine #MANB&WME engine #CCUfailure #Cylinderlubrication ME engine #Marineengineeringtraining #Shipengineemergencyprocedure #6G60MEC10.5 #Marinedieselenginetroubleshooting #Engineroomtraining #Cylindercutoutprocedure #marineengineerknowledge
