The shaft end piece with code K 31010 is a crucial termination component of the crankshaft assembly in the Sulzer ZV40/48 engine. It provides structural support and precise alignment for accessories or systems mounted at the end of the crankshaft, such as couplings or drive gears. This component must maintain exact tolerances to ensure smooth power transmission and to prevent imbalance or misalignment during rotation. Manufactured from high-strength materials to withstand torque and vibration, the shaft end piece is vital for maintaining crankshaft stability and overall engine reliability.

The valve body with ball, identified by code K 27703, is a precision-engineered component used in the relief valve assembly of the ZV40/48 diesel engine. Designed to control and direct fluid flow under pressure, the integrated ball ensures a tight seal when the valve is closed and allows smooth pressure release when opened. This critical component helps maintain pressure stability within the engine system, protecting sensitive parts from damage caused by overpressure. Built to endure high thermal and mechanical stress, the valve body with ball ensures both safety and consistent engine performance in heavy-duty applications.

The pressure spring marked with code K 27705 is a vital element in the relief valve assembly of the ZV40/48 engine, functioning to regulate pressure within the system. Engineered to maintain consistent pressure thresholds, this spring ensures the relief valve opens and closes at precise pressure points, preventing potential overpressure scenarios and safeguarding vital engine components. Its robust design and high-tensile strength enable it to endure repeated stress cycles, making it indispensable for maintaining optimal engine performance and operational safety.
