Marinediesels new VGT-series High-Output engines are finally available after over four years of intensive development.
The design goals have been:
» High Power output
» Commercial rating
» Best power to weight ratio on the market
» EPA, Eu and IMO compliant
» Drastically reduced noise level at idle and through the entire rpm range
» Variable geometry turbo technology to continue with Marindiesels tradition of low end torque and very fast throttle response
» Improved fuel economy » Instant start-up in cold weather » Marinediesels new common rail marine grade ECu system
Durability, diesel economy and dependable power will be synonymous with the new VGT-series. All maintenance items have been integrated at an early design stage to these components easily accessible.
Quick acceleration
The variable geometry turbo system will allow vessels to accelerate quicker and with faster throttle response than any other conventional turbo engines on the market. The technology also improves the fuel economy over the entire rpm-range of the engine. The Bosch common rail system in conjunction with Marinediesels own ECU system reduces the noise levels at idle with up to 80%.
CAN-bus J1939 system allows for full integration with the vessels electronic systems. A large corrosion resistant after cooling system.
Small package with low weight
The new VGT engines are all based on the 6.6L 32-valve V8 configuration, a much larger displacement platform than other engines in the same power range. Even with its large displacement it is at the same time a much smaller package and with a lower weight. Laptop diagnostics tool available.
Noise suppression
The rigidity of the cylinder block is a concern not only for durability but for noise suppression as well. This strength was accomplished with a deep-skirt cylinder block structure and by connecting the bearing caps to the lower part of the block with side bolts, in addition to the two main bolts. The block is manufactured from a special gray iron alloy. The 4340 forged steel crankshaft and six 14mm head bolts per cylinder all indicate the strength of the design.
