Maintenance Recommendations
SMCS 1000
Overhaul Intervals
Some factors that are important for determining the overhaul intervals include the following considerations:
Performance of preventive maintenance
Use of recommended lubricants
Use of recommended coolants
Use of recommended fuels
Proper installation
Operating conditions
Operation within acceptable limits
Engine load
Engine speed
Generally, engines that are operated at a reduced load and/or speed achieve more service life before an overhaul.
However, the engines must be operated and maintained properly.
Other factors must also be considered for determining a major overhaul:
The total amount of fuel consumption
The service hours of the engine
An increase of oil consumption

An increase of crankcase blowby
The wear metal analysis of the lube oil
An increase in the levels of noise and vibration
An increase of wear metals in the lube oil indicates that the bearings and the surfaces that wear may need
serviced. An increase in the levels of noise and vibration indicates that rotating parts require service.
Note: Oil analysis may indicate a decrease of wear metals in the lube oil. The cylinder liners may be worn so
that polishing of the bore occurs. Also, the increased use of lube oil will dilute the wear metals.
Monitor the engine as the engine accumulates service hours. Consult your Cat dealer about scheduling a major
overhaul.
Note: The driven equipment may also require service when the engine is overhauled. Refer to the literature that
is provided by the OEM of the driven equipment.
Using Fuel Consumption For Calculating the Overhaul Intervals
Experience has shown that maintenance intervals are most accurately based on fuel consumption. Fuel
consumption corresponds more accurately to the engine load. Tables 1, 2, and 3 list average ranges of fuel
consumption and service hours for standard displacement engines. These tables are based on a load factor of
approximately 60 percent.

( 1) Fuel consumption is based on a load factor of approximately 60 percent.
Overhaul intervals are guidelines and are dependent on the maintenance and usage factors described in
this Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Maintenance intervals must be reduced for engines that operate in a severe service application.
Maintenance intervals must also be reduced for engines that operate in excess of the engine rating
definition.
Oil Consumption as an Overhaul Indicator
Oil consumption, fuel consumption, and maintenance information can be used to estimate the total operating
cost for your Cat engine. Oil consumption can also be used to estimate the required capacity of a makeup oil
tank that is suitable for the maintenance intervals.
Oil consumption is in proportion to the percentage of the rated engine load. As the percentage of the engine load
is increased, the amount of oil that is consumed per hour also increases.
The oil consumption rate (brakespecific oil consumption) is measured in grams per kW/h (lb per bhp). The
brakespecific oil consumption (BSOC) depends on the engine load. Consult your Cat dealer for assistance in
determining the typical oil consumption rate for your engine.
https://sis.cat.com/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisweb/mediasearch/mediaheaderinfoframeset.jsp&calledpage=/sisweb/s… 7/9
5/3/2017 3516B Marine Engine S2X00001UP(SEBP3924 46) Documentation
When the oil consumption of an engine has risen to three times the original oil consumption rate, an
engine overhaul should be scheduled. There may be a corresponding increase in blowby and a slight increase
in fuel consumption.
Severe Operation
Severe operation is the use of an engine that exceeds current published standards for that engine. Caterpillar
maintains standards for the following engine parameters:
Horsepower
Range of rpm
Fuel consumption
Fuel quality
Altitude
Maintenance intervals
Selection of oil
Selection of coolant
Environmental qualities
Installation
Refer to the standards for your engine or consult your Cat dealer in order to determine if your engine is
operating within the defined parameters.
Severe operation can accelerate component wear. Engines that are operating under severe conditions may need
more frequent maintenance intervals for the following reasons:
Maximum reliability
Retention of full service life
Because of individual applications, all of the factors which can contribute to severe operation cannot be
identified. Consult your Cat dealer about the maintenance that is needed for your specific engine.
The following factors can contribute to severe operation: environment, improper operating procedures and
improper maintenance practices.
Environmental Factors
Extreme Ambient Temperatures
Extended operation in environments that are too cold or too hot can damage components. Valve components can
be damaged by carbon buildup if the engine is frequently started and stopped in temperatures that are too cold.
Inlet air that is too hot reduces the performance capabilities of the engine.

5/3/2017 3516B Marine Engine S2X00001UP(SEBP3924 46) Documentation
Note: See this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Cold Weather Operation" topic (Operation Section), or see
Special Publication, SEBU5898, "Cold Weather Recommendations".
Cleanliness
Unless the equipment is cleaned regularly, extended operation in a dirty environment and in a dusty environment
can damage components. Built up mud, dirt, and dust can encase components and make maintenance difficult.
The buildup can contain corrosive chemicals. Corrosive chemicals and salt can damage some components.
Improper Operating Procedures
Extended operation at low idle
Minimum cool down periods after high load factor operation
Operating the engine beyond the guidelines for the engine rating
Operating the engine at loads that are greater than the rated load
Operating the engine at speeds that are greater than the rated speed
Use of the engine for an application that is not approved
Improper Maintenance Practices
Extension of maintenance intervals
Not using recommended fuel, lubricants, and coolant
