GRAVINER MARK MK 6

Refurbished
The Graviner Mark 6 Oil Mist Detector (OMD MK6) is one of the most widely used marine engine safety systems for monitoring crankcase oil mist concentrations in medium-speed and low-speed diesel engines. Developed by Graviner, now part of Kidde Fire Protection, the Mark 6 system provides continuous protection against crankcase explosions by detecting abnormal oil mist levels before dangerous conditions develop.
From the supplied image, the system includes the Graviner Mark 6 Control Panel, multiple Oil Mist Detector Sensor Heads, and associated junction/interface units. This complete monitoring arrangement is commonly installed on main propulsion engines and auxiliary diesel generators onboard commercial vessels worldwide.
The primary function of the Graviner Mark 6 is to continuously sample crankcase atmospheres and provide early warning when oil mist concentrations rise above safe operating limits. This early detection helps prevent severe engine damage, costly downtime, and potentially catastrophic crankcase explosions.
The Graviner Mark 6 Oil Mist Detection System continuously monitors the concentration of oil mist present inside engine crankcase compartments. During normal operation, only minimal oil mist exists inside the crankcase. However, abnormal bearing temperatures, lubrication failures, frictional heating, or mechanical defects can rapidly generate excessive oil mist.
The Mark 6 system utilizes dedicated detector heads installed at multiple sampling points around the engine. These sensors continuously analyze oil mist concentrations and communicate with the central control unit.
When oil mist levels exceed preset alarm thresholds, the system immediately activates alarms and alerts engine room personnel. If dangerous conditions continue to develop, shutdown procedures can be initiated according to vessel operating philosophy and safety requirements.
The Mark 6 remains one of the most trusted oil mist monitoring systems installed on marine diesel engines throughout the world fleet.
The system continuously monitors crankcase conditions without interrupting engine operation.
The Mark 6 detects abnormal oil mist concentrations at an early stage, providing valuable time for corrective action.
Multiple detector heads allow complete monitoring of large marine engines and multiple crankcase compartments.
The integrated display provides real-time system status, alarm information, detector readings, and maintenance functions.
The Graviner Mark 6 has been successfully installed on thousands of marine engines worldwide and is recognized for dependable operation.
The system significantly reduces the risk of catastrophic crankcase explosions by detecting hazardous conditions before ignition occurs.
