The complete fuel injection valve K 27200 is a precision assembly at the heart of the Sulzer ZV40/48 fuel system, responsible for delivering correctly timed, metered fuel into the combustion chamber. Built as a matched unit (body, needle/seat, springs, seals and mounting hardware), it’s engineered to withstand high pressure, rapid thermal cycling and aggressive fuels while producing an accurate spray pattern for efficient combustion. Because injection valves directly affect power output, emissions and fuel consumption, routine inspection, cleaning and replacement of worn seals or needles are vital — installing a factory-matched K 27200 assembly helps restore original performance and reduces troubleshooting time.
The two-part ring K 67013 is a split/clamp style sealing or locating ring used on the engine’s air branch connections to allow assembly around ducts or piping without disassembly of long runs. Its two-piece design enables quick installation and ensures even clamping force around flanges or hoses, reducing air leaks and vibration-induced loosening. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant metal or coated steel, this ring is important for maintaining intake or scavenging efficiency; inspect for distortion, corrosion or loose fasteners during routine service to preserve air system performance.
The O-ring K 27211 seals the interface between the injector nozzle and its holder, preventing high-pressure fuel from bypassing the nozzle seat. Typically specified from a fuel-resistant, heat-stable elastomer, this ring must retain elasticity under pressure pulses and temperature swings to preserve injection precision. Because O-rings are wearable, routine checks for hardening, cuts or compression set — and prompt replacement with the correct material grade — are simple but high-impact actions that keep combustion consistent and avoid fuel leaks.
The nut K 27209 is an unglamorous but safety-critical fastener that secures the fuel injection valve assembly on the Sulzer ZV40/48. By clamping the valve body and keeping sealing surfaces and washers compressed, this nut helps maintain injection pressure and timing while resisting loosening from vibration and pressure pulses. Made from high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel and fitted to a specified torque (often with a locking device), it’s a small part whose correct installation and periodic inspection prevent leaks, misfires and costly engine downtime.
The metal tube K 27264 is a precision high-pressure line used on the Sulzer ZV40/48 to carry metered fuel between pump, valves and injectors. Manufactured to tight dimensional tolerances and from corrosion-resistant alloy, the tube resists pressure, vibration and thermal cycles while preserving internal bore smoothness to avoid flow disturbance. Proper support, correct fitting with the matching O-ring (K 27276) and protection from impact or chafing are essential—small dents, kinks or corrosion can cause leaks or pressure loss, so inspect and replace damaged tubes to keep fuel delivery accurate and safe.
The O-ring K 27276 is designed as the sealing element where metal tube K 27264 interfaces with fittings or housings in the ZV40/48 fuel pressure line. Its job is to create a fluid-tight joint against a smooth tube surface under high pressure and vibration. Typically specified from a chemically resistant elastomer compatible with diesel, the ring must be fitted to the correct groove and protected from scoring during assembly. Regular checks and prompt replacement of this O-ring prevent seepage at tube joints and help maintain stable injection pressure and engine performance.
The O-ring K 27275 is a small but crucial sealing element specified for housings K 27259 and K 27263 on the Sulzer ZV40/48 fuel system. Installed between mating faces, this O-ring prevents high-pressure fuel leaks and protects surrounding components from contamination. Made from a fuel-resistant, heat-stable elastomer, it must tolerate pressure pulsations and vibration while retaining elasticity. Because O-rings are wear items, keeping spares and checking for hardening, cuts or compression set during routine inspections is a simple, high-value step to avoid fuel loss and maintain safe, reliable operation.
The nut K 27258 secures the fuel pressure valve in the Sulzer ZV40/48 and is a small but safety-critical fastener: it holds the valve body, maintains sealing compression on washers/O-rings, and resists loosening from vibration and pressure pulses. Typically made from high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel and fitted with the specified torque (and locking means where required), correct installation prevents leaks and pressure loss. Include this nut in routine inspections — replace if rounded, corroded or if preload is lost to ensure reliable fuel pressure control.
The fuel pressure line K 27251 denotes an individual high-pressure pipe section used in the ZV40/48 fuel system; it carries metered fuel under pressure from pump or distributor to the valve body. Manufactured to tight tolerances and from materials resistant to fuel, pressure and vibration, this single line is a critical flow path — even small nicks or deformation will compromise pressure and lead to leaks or spray. Technicians should check supports, fittings and protective sleeves during each service interval and replace the line if bending, corrosion or erosion is observed.
The complete fuel pressure line K 27250 is a ready-to-install assembly for the Sulzer ZV40/48 that includes the high-pressure tubing, end fittings, seals and any required brackets or flexible sections to connect the fuel pump or distributor to the injection or control valves. Built and routed to withstand the engine’s operating pressures and vibration, a complete line saves installation time and reduces leak risk because the components are matched and pressure-tested as an assembly. Regular inspection of the fittings, clamps and seals on the complete line is essential — replace any softened O-rings or corroded fittings immediately to keep injection timing and engine performance consistent.
