The end plate on the damper side, marked by code number K 16225, is an essential structural element within the Sulzer ZV40/48 engine. It provides a firm mounting surface for the damper assembly and helps maintain the alignment and balance of the rotating components. Designed to endure mechanical stress and thermal expansion, this end plate ensures stability in the engine’s vibration control system. Regular inspection and secure fastening of the end plate are key to minimizing vibration-related wear and achieving long-term operational stability.
