What is a marine exhaust achieving?
A marine engine exhaust system ejects the cooling water as well as silencing the engine’s combustion noise and removing the exhaust gases. The system must create minimal restriction to the flow of exhaust gases, known as back pressure, or the engine may be damaged.
Exhaust Alert Alarm
It is important that you also protect your engines and gensets. Marine diesel exhaust systems are designed to take temperatures of only 120°C. If the water cooling system fails exhaust gases can quickly reach more than 450°C. At this temperature the exhaust will overheat and causing serious damage. In most situations Halyard’s Exhaust Alert will warn you before serious damage occurs.
