5.6 Group 6 - Scavenge air components
5.6.1 Scavenge air receiver
The scavenge air receiver (005, Figure 5-41) supplies the cylinders with the applicable quantity
of air.
The scavenge air receiver is a welded assembly attached to the cylinder block on the exhaust
side.
The relief valve, installed on the scavenge air receiver, opens when the air pressure increases
to more than the permitted value in the air space (001, Figure 5-42).
For more data about the scavenge air system, refer to section 4.8 Scavenge air system.

The longitudinal wall (002, Figure 5-42) divides the scavenge air receiver into the receiver
space (003) and the air space (001). The flaps (005) are attached to the longitudinal wall (002).
The flaps (005) prevent the scavenge air to flow back into the air space (001).
