In Requirements for internal combustion engines of Piston type, each engine other than _______________ are fitted with vent systems independent of other engines for crankcases and sumps

✓

Direct Answer

Option A: two-stroke crosshead diesel engines

Two-stroke crosshead diesel engines are exempted from certain independent crankcase venting requirements due to their design, which typically isolates the combustion space from the crankcase. Other engine types must maintain independent vent systems to prevent the migration of gas into the crankcase, which could lead to an explosive atmosphere within the engine structure.

B
single-stroke crosshead diesel engines
C
single-stroke crosshead petrol engines
D
two-stroke crosshead petrol engines
