- Abstract
The MDO Purifier aircraft is a very important auxiliary aircraft on board ships. This aircraft uses the basic principle of differences in the specific gravity of a substance so that these substances can be separated perfectly or in another way using the centrifugal principle. This part of the chapter explains the working principle of the MDO Purifier, the function of the components related to fuel and explains the working principle of different specific gravity of a substance so that the substances can be separated perfectly and how to operate and maintain the MDO Purifier. Exactly according to the instruction manual book. Aboard the MV.TANTO MANIS where the researcher carried out sea practices, several problems occurred during the operation of the MDO Purifier, so that it interferes with the performance of the MDO Purifier when it is not perfect when purifying the fuel. Therefore, maximum handling and maintenance is required to facilitate the performance of the MDO Purifier so that the fuel on board the ship is always clean. In the sense that this research focuses on existing phenomena that can then be understood in depth. This research was carried out by examining parts of the ship's engine components, namely the MDO Purifier components, by directly observing the causes of damage to the MDO Purifier components, less than optimal maintenance on the MDO Purifier, as well as the quality of the fuel on the ship and then finding the cause. The results of this research, if the MDO Purifier is rarely maintained and is not done correctly during the part installation process, the performance of the MDO Purifier can be disrupted because it can cause overflow, the MDO Purifier rotation cannot reach the specified limit, so fuel will be wasted which can be detrimental to the Company.
