Engine Power Reduction and Shutdown
Engine Power Reduction and Shutdown - Gen 5 DD15 - Ops
- #7628
During engine power reduction an engine power ramp down will reduce engine power to a predetermined value, but will not shut down the engine. With the shutdown option, the engine will begin a stepped power down sequence until it shuts down completely.
The engine should not be restarted after it has been shut down by the engine protection system, unless the problem has been located and corrected. It is the operator's responsibility to shut down the engine to avoid serious damage.
