🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between continuous monitoring and periodic inspection for machinery • Normal watchstanding duties for engine room personnel regarding reduction gears • Which parameters are usually connected to gauges/alarms for real-time observation

💭 Think About

• Which of these checks would reasonably be watched from the control station or local gauges while the plant is running? • Which items require shutdown, opening of inspection covers, or physical measurement tools to examine? • On a watch, what do you expect the engineer to log every few minutes or at least each round when the plant is operating?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are visual internal inspections versus instrument/gauge readings. • Ask: which condition, if it changed quickly, could cause immediate damage and therefore needs constant attention? • Consider which parameter is normally tied into automatic alarms for protection of reduction gears.
