CR Pump Test & Validation Guide

Abstract

The purpose of the thesis was to produce a common-rail injection pump testing and validation guide for Wärtsilä Finland Oy. The guide includes instructions for testing the common-rail injection pump on the test bench and the engine. In addition, the instructions also include instructions for checking the pump components. There is a need for this guideline in the company as testing and validation is currently carried out based on the knowledge of those who mainly work on injection pumps. The aim of this manual is to facilitate testing and standardize the tests of the pumps. This thesis focuses on the common-rail pump operation and the tests, which are made on the pump. The result of the thesis is a guide for the pump testing and validation, which will be found in the Wärtsilä internal database system.
