Volvo Generator-Volvo latest IPS is chosen by Cheoy Lee




The yacht-builder unveiled the Bravo 72 earlier this year with Volvo Penta D13-IPS1050. Cheoy Lee has now chosen to offer the vessel with a higher power output since the launch of Volvo Pentas highest performance unit, D13-IPS1350, which came onto the market earlier this year. Cheoy Lee has its headquarters in Hong Kong, with shipyards in mainland China and the USA, serving an international roster of clients.

We chose Volvo Penta IPS in the first place because of its excellent performance, high power-to-weight ratio, and low emissions, noise and vibrations,says But-Yang Lo, vice president of Cheoy Lee Shipyards North America. But since the launch of the new Volvo Penta IPS package, we decided to take advantage of the higher output it offers so that our customers can get the best possible performance with this boat.

Proud heritage of shipbuilding
The Cheoy Lee company has been building vessels since 1870, from ferries to tugboats to todays selection of large motor-yachts. The family-run company prides itself on its commitment to providing quality, pioneering technology and high-class design.

The 72-foot Bravo has fuel capacity of 1,060 USG and a full-load displacement of 94,000 lbs. It is made from fiberglass, aluminum and steel, conceived by naval architect, Howard Apollonio; its luxuriously-designed interior, with four state-rooms, was created by Sylvia Bolton. The flybridge yacht is currently powered by twin Volvo Penta D13-IPS1050.

With the D13-IPS1350, customers can operate the boat at a higher speed with increased maneuverability in comfort and safety, without sacrificing fuel efficiency,says Lo. These benefits make it a really attractive option for our customers.

Providing the best options
Volvo Pentas D13-IPS1350 is an integrated package that matches the companys latest and strongest D13 engine with an upgraded IPS pod drive. As a complete package, the new D13-IPS1350 has all the traditional benefits of the system in providing a seamless link from helm to propellers. When compared to a traditional inboard shaft engine installation, Volvo Penta IPS provides a longer cruising range, higher top speed, reduced fuel consumption and emissions, reduced vibration, and lower onboard noise levels. The configuration also allows for more space on board.

Upgrades to the IPS pod drive have been made to match the new engine. The D13-IPS1350 package is available in twin, triple or quadruple installation; the latter of these provides power to the equivalent of 5400hp. Improved features on the new IPS drive can also be fitted on existing IPS units.

Were really pleased, of course, that Cheoy Lee has chosen to install our latest IPS package in their new Bravo 72,says Peter Karlsson, vice president of sales and marketing at Volvo Penta in the Asia Pacific Region. As the D13-IPS1350 is our strongest engine and propulsion unit, we are expecting top-end performance of this boat, with the ability to reach over 30 knots. I think customers will have a great time in the Bravo 72, powered by Volvo generator.

Cheoy Lee Shipyards North America will be at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, from November 1-5, at Lime Zone AB 4. Volvo generator will be at the show, in the Yellow Zone Engine Tent at stands 1203-1204, and 1225-1226.

How to know and solve faults of genset voltage transformer

 Today Starlight Power shares the common faults for voltage transformer of diesel generator set. Hope it is helpful to you. 1) The insulation between iron chips is damaged. Fault phenomenon: temperature rises during operation. The possible causes of the failure are: poor insulation between iron chips, bad use of environmental conditions or long-term operation under high temperature, which promote the insulation aging between iron chips. (2) Poor contact between grounding plate and iron core. Fault phenomenon: there is discharge sound between iron core and oil tank during operation. Cause of failure: the grounding plate is not inserted tightly, and the mounting screw is not tightened. (3) The iron core is loose. Fault phenomenon: abnormal vibration or noise during operation. The cause of failure: the iron core clamp is not clamped, and the iron chip is loose. (4) Turn to turn short circuit of winding. Fault phenomenon: during operation, the temperature rises, there is ...
