Who is Bitzer
Bitzer, of Sindelfingen, Germany, is the world’s largest independent maker of refrigeration compressors — the ECOLINE semi-hermetic and open-drive reciprocating compressors and screw compressors fitted to reefer plants and air-conditioning across the world fleet.
A single fleet can run the Bitzer ECOLINE 4NES, 4PES or the open-drive and screw ranges — and Wattmare supplies genuine, OEM-equivalent and Alang-reconditioned spares (cylinder liners, pistons, connecting rods, suction and discharge valves, shaft seals and bearings) across every Bitzer refrigeration compressor.

Diagnose the fault
| Symptom | Likely Bitzer-Bitzer parts to inspect |
|---|---|
| Loss of compression or power on one unit | Cylinder liner, piston rings, piston crown |
| High exhaust temperature on one cylinder | Discharge valve / nozzle, discharge valve spindle |
| Knocking or pounding from the crankcase | Main, crankpin or crosshead bearings |
| Excessive cylinder-oil consumption | Liner wear, piston rings, shaft-seal rings |
| Difficult or failed starting | Starting air valve, oil pump (plunger / barrel) or rail valve |
| Black or smoky exhaust | Discharge valve nozzles, slide valves, turbocharger interface |
| Oil leak at the piston-rod gland | Shaft seal and sealing ring set |
| Water in the combustion space | Cylinder head, cooling-jacket O-rings, liner |

The complete guide
Wattmare is a specialist Bitzer refrigeration compressor spare parts supplier serving India, the UAE, Singapore and the wider global fleet. From our base in Bhavnagar — beside the Alang ship-recycling yard — we supply genuine, OEM-equivalent and reconditioned spares for every generation of Bitzer-Bitzer reciprocating marine main engine, dispatched worldwide in 24–48 hours.
The refrigeration compressors on this page are built by Bitzer of Sindelfingen, Germany, the world’s largest independent refrigeration-compressor maker since 1934. Its ECOLINE, open-drive and screw compressors drive reefer and air-conditioning plants across the world fleet. We supply spares for all of them.
The single most important question on any Bitzer-Bitzer order is whether the engine is an ECOLINE, an open-drive or an screw. The Bitzer ECOLINE is valve gear-controlled — oil pump, fuel cam, chain drive and mechanical discharge-valve gear. The open-drive / open-drive and the Bitzer screw are electronically controlled, replacing the valve gear with a water-cooled supply unit, rail valves, flow-control units (FCU) and hydraulically actuated discharge valves. Liners, covers, crowns and bearings are broadly common by bore, but injection and actuation parts are entirely different — always give us your exact ECOLINE / open-drive / screw designation.
For every Bitzer ECOLINE, open-drive and screw refrigeration compressor we stock cylinder liners, pistons and piston rings, connecting rods, suction and discharge valves, valve plates, shaft seals, crankshaft and main bearings, oil pumps, gaskets and unloader parts — genuine, OEM-equivalent and Alang-reconditioned.
Bhavnagar sits beside Alang, where hundreds of vessels are dismantled every year — including ships still running ageing Bitzer ECOLINE reciprocating engines. That gives Wattmare direct access to genuine, low-hour parts that are slow or costly to source from distributors, at a fraction of new-part cost and lead time. For hard-to-find ECOLINE oil pumps, chain drives, liners or running gear, this is the fastest source in the world. Browse our reconditioned marine spare parts range, the wider main engine spare parts category, or sister brands like MAN engine spares and Mitsubishi UEC.
Send your Bitzer engine make and model with a photo or part number on WhatsApp, or use the quote form. We confirm availability and price — usually within the hour — and dispatch in-stock items within 24 hours. Typical air-freight transit is 12–18 hours to the UAE, 16–24 to Singapore, 20–26 to Greece and Turkey, and 28–36 to Northern Europe.
FAQ
Yes — cylinder liners are one of our strongest Bitzer-Bitzer lines. We carry original-bore and reconditioned liners for the ECOLINE and ECOLINE, plus the rest of the ECOLINE range (the ECOLINE range), honed to OEM tolerance with measurement reports. Most legacy ECOLINE liners are recovered and reconditioned beside Alang.
The Bitzer ECOLINE is a valve gear-controlled (mechanical) reciprocating — oil pump, fuel cam and mechanical discharge-valve actuation. The open-drive / open-drive and the Bitzer screw are electronically controlled, replacing the valve gear with a water-cooled supply unit, rail valves, flow-control units (FCU) and hydraulically actuated discharge valves. Liners, crowns and bearings are broadly similar by bore, but the injection and discharge-valve actuation parts are completely different — always quote your exact ECOLINE, open-drive or screw model.
We cover the full Bitzer range — the ECOLINE series (4FES, 4NES, 4PES), the open-drive series and the screw range — every Bitzer refrigeration compressor.
Reconditioned parts ship with inspection reports, dimensional measurements and photographs, and are accepted by class societies (Lloyd’s Register, DNV, ABS, BV, ClassNK, RINA) on survey. Genuine Bitzer parts carry full material and test certificates.
In-stock items dispatch within 24 hours from Bhavnagar. Typical air-freight transit to the UAE (Dubai, Jebel Ali, Fujairah) is 12–18 hours. Singapore is 16–24 hours, Greece and Turkey 20–26, and Northern Europe 28–36.
Yes — discharge valves, injector nozzles, high-pressure oil pumps, plungers and barrels for Bitzer ECOLINE engines, plus water-cooled supply units, rail valves, flow-control units (FCU) and injection equipment for open-drive / open-drive and screw engines, are stocked and bench-tested before dispatch.
Genuine parts come from the original maker (Bitzer / Bitzer) with full certificates. OEM-equivalent are quality aftermarket parts at 30–50% less. Reconditioned are low-hour parts recovered from Alang, inspected and certified to OEM tolerance, at up to 70% less with a 30-day warranty.
Yes — obsolete Bitzer ECOLINE parts are our specialty. Beside Alang we recover low-hour oil pumps, chain drives, liners, crowns and running gear from ECOLINE-powered vessels being dismantled, then inspect and certify them. For the ECOLINE range and ECOLINE engines this is often the fastest source in the world.
Yes — suction and discharge valves, valve plates, shaft seals, cylinder liners, pistons, rings, bearings and complete overhaul kits for the Bitzer ECOLINE, open-drive and screw compressors, genuine and Alang-reconditioned.
