Estimated Service Hours Before An In-Frame Overhaul
Fuel Compression Ratio Service Hours
Wellhead gas or natural gas 7.6:1 50000 Scheduling an in-frame overhaul normally depends on the following three conditions:
An increase of oil consumption
An increase of crankcase blowby
A decrease and a variation of cylinder compressionEach individual condition may not indicate a need for an overhaul. However, evaluating the three conditions together is the most accurate method of determining when an overhaul is necessary.The engine may not require an overhaul if the engine is operating within acceptable limits for oil consumption, crankcase blowby, and cylinder compression.Periodically measure each of the three conditions. The first measurement should occur during the first scheduled maintenance. This scheduled maintenance establishes a baseline for future measurements. More measurements are scheduled at regular intervals to determine a schedule for the next in-frame overhaul.The following changes in the three conditions normally require a scheduled overhaul:
A 300 percent increase in oil consumption
A 200 percent increase in crankcase blowby
A 20 percent loss of cylinder compressionNote: These indications do not require an engine to be shut down for service. These indications only mean that an engine should be scheduled for service soon. If the engine operation is satisfactory, an immediate overhaul is not a requirement.An in-frame overhaul does not typically require the engine to be removed. Instead, the service is performed with the engine in place.Note: The generator or the driven equipment may also require service when the engine overhaul is performed.In-Frame Overhaul Information
An in-frame overhaul includes all the work that is done for a top end overhaul. Also, some other components that wear are replaced. The condition of components is inspected. Those components are replaced, if necessary.Inspect the following components according to the instructions that are in Cat reusability publications. Refer to Guidelines for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8029, "Index of Publications on Reusability or Salvage of Used Parts".Your Cat dealer can provide these services and components. Your Cat dealer can ensure that the components are operating within the appropriate specifications.If you elect to perform an overhaul without the services of a Cat dealer, be aware of the following recommendations.The following definitions explain the terminology for the services that are performed during an overhaul:Inspect - Inspect the components according to the instructions that are in Cat reusability publications. Refer to Guidelines for Reusable Parts and Salvage Operations, SEBF8029, "Index of Publications on Reusability or Salvage of Used Parts". The guidelines were developed to help Cat dealers and customers to avoid unnecessary expenditures. New parts are not required if the existing parts can still be used, reconditioned, or repaired. If the components are not in the reusability guidelines, refer to the Service Manual, "Specifications" module.Rebuild - The component can be reconditioned to comply with reusability guidelines.Replace - The service life of the part is exhausted. The part may fail before the next maintenance interval. The part must be replaced with a part that meets functional specifications. The replacement part may be a new part, a Cat remanufactured part, a rebuilt part, or a used part. Various worn components may be exchanged with your Cat dealer. Consult your Cat dealer about repair options for your engine.
