What Can a Mobile Marine Diesel Mechanic Repair at the Dock? #
Many marine diesel repairs, maintenance services and diagnostic procedures can be completed directly where the vessel is located.
Mobile dockside service allows the technician to evaluate the engine or generator in its normal installation without unnecessarily moving the vessel.
Marine Diesel Diagnostics #
Common dockside diagnostic services may include:
- No-start troubleshooting
- Electronic fault-code diagnostics
- Electrical testing
- Engine-alarm diagnostics
- Fuel-system troubleshooting
- Cooling-system diagnostics
- Oil-pressure problems
- Temperature problems
Marine Diesel Maintenance #
Routine maintenance can often be performed directly aboard the vessel.
Services may include:
- Oil and filter changes
- Fuel filters
- Fuel/water separator service
- Impeller replacement
- Belt replacement
- Hose inspection
- Zinc replacement
- Scheduled engine service
Marine Generator Service #
Many generator problems can also be diagnosed and repaired dockside.
This may include:
- Generator no-start diagnostics
- Shutdown troubleshooting
- Cooling-system repair
- Fuel-system service
- Generator maintenance
- Electrical-output testing
Marine Transmission and Mechanical Service #
Depending on the problem and vessel configuration, mobile service may also include transmission inspection, fluid service, leak diagnostics and drivetrain evaluation.
When Is a Sea Trial Needed? #
Some problems only occur when the engine is operating under load.
Loss of power, overheating, vibration and certain alarms may require a sea trial after the initial dockside inspection.
Major rebuilds or specialized repairs may also require engine removal or additional facilities.
