RT Flex Engine Training Modules

Aims:

1. To develop in-depth technical knowledge and operational competence in RT-Flex electronically controlled marine engines.
2. To bridge the gap between traditional engine systems and modern common rail technology for marine propulsion.
3. To enhance the ability of marine engineers to ensure safety, efficiency, and environmental compliance using RT-Flex systems.

Objectives:

1. Understand RT-Flex engine technology's principles, design features, and applications.
2. Identify and explain key components, including the common rail fuel injection system, exhaust valves, lubrication, and cooling systems.
3. Operate the RT-Flex engine effectively, including starting, stopping, manoeuvring, and performance optimisation.
4. Interpret and troubleshoot electronic control systems, including the ECU, safety systems, and diagnostics.
5. Conduct routine maintenance, fault detection, and component repair using correct procedures.
6. Apply emission reduction strategies and ensure compliance with IMO regulations, particularly MARPOL Annexe VI.
7. Respond appropriately to emergency situations involving RT-Flex engines and apply safety protocols during failures.
