Heinen & Hopman Component
MGO Cooler
Heinen & Hopman MGO cooler providing precise fuel temperature control to keep marine gas oil viscosity above engine minimums after switching from HFO in ECA waters; compact, customisable and retrofittable.
Description
The Heinen & Hopman MGO Cooler controls fuel temperature when engines switch from heavy fuel oil (HFO) to low-sulphur marine gas oil/diesel (MGO/MDO) to meet MARPOL sulphur limits in ECA waters. Low-sulphur MGO has low viscosity and poor lubricity, which can damage fuel pumps designed for HFO; engine makers advise a minimum of 2 cSt at the fuel pump inlet, with over 3 cSt strongly recommended for engine start and stop. Cooling the fuel keeps viscosity within these limits.
Key features
- Precise fuel temperature control to protect any type of engine on MGO
- Based on Heinen & Hopman marine chiller technology
- Compact units with customised design
- Easy to retrofit on existing vessels or install on newbuilds
