Cooling water temperature/pressure
Excessive expansion of components resulting in failure Wear and scale formation
Crank case pressure
Engine block blow off Wearing of piston rings/ cracks in piston crown Possible explosion of the engine
Exhaust gas temperature
Burning of exhaust valves resulting in damage to turbocharger Excessive damage to piston
Bearing temperature Lube oil temperature/ pressure
Crankshaft seizure Overheating of piston top and seizure
Engine speed
Connecting rod bushings, rod bearings, main bearings could be damaged
Wear/ Tear in fuel line, turbocharger
Results in slow and steady damage to the machinery
