VOLVO PENTA AQUAMATIC

5.0/SX

201 kW (270 hp)

Genuine V-8

A genuine gasoline V-8 for per-formance motorboats. With 5.0- liter displacement and eight cylin- ders, this engine delivers loads of torque and power across the en- tire speed range. The advanced fuel-injection system is a perfect match for the SX single-propel- ler drive. The drive can easily be adapted for right (standard) or left-handed propellers. Power steering is fi tted as standard for maximum driving comfort.

Engine EVC/MC – Plug and go (option)
5.0 liter gasoline en gine in a V-8 con- fi g u ra tion, fea tur ing: seawater cool ing with cast iron cy lin der block, cy lin der heads and ex haust man i folds, which are specially de vel oped for the marine en vi ron ment. The exhaust man i folds and ris ers are EDP treated for increased du- ra bil i ty. In addition, the seawater pump is located on the front of the engine for easy ac ces si bil i ty. EVC Electronic Vessel Control is the latest development in instrumentation for marine engines. It offers a higher level of integration with your boat: speed, tank level, depth and surface water temp as well as an optional trip computer integrated into a uniform in- strumentation. EVC makes boating easier offering new software options such as power trim assistant, a function that adjusts the power trim depending on engine rpm. EVC is scalable from a classic dash- board up to advanced driver information systems. The system is built on the latest automotive technology with waterproof connectors, so it’s just plug and go. Fuel injection
The Multi Port Fuel Injection system is mon i tored by an Elet ro n ic Control Mod- ule (ECM) and gives the fol low ing advan-tages: more responsive and smoother ac cel er a tion, excellent turn key starts in all weath er conditions, smooth reliable idling, reduced fuel consumption, and improved control of emis sions. Additional features built into the sys tem include: engine knock control for com- pen sa tion of less than perfect gaso line, overspeed protection, rpm re duc tion of the engine for low oil pres sure, high en-gine tem pera ture, and low voltage, plati-num tipped spark plugs for longer life and trouble-free starts, al ti tude com pen sa tion for air density, and self-diagnostic capa- bilities. Also, there are two fuel pumps for low and high pres sure respectively. Electrical system
The electrical system features a 12 V corrosion-protected marine elec tri cal system which meets the U.S. Coast Guard requirements. The en gine is wired for easy plug-in connection to the in stru -ment panel. The engine elec tri cal system and the electric hy drau lic power trim is protected by a 40 A circuit breaker and comes equipped with a 75 A al ter na tor. Full in stru men ta tion in clud ing trim gauge and wiring har ness (op tion on cer tain mar kets). Aquamatic sterndrive
The SX single propeller drive is of the most modern design featuring ex haust through the propeller hub and cavitation plate for quiet and ef fi cient operation, a cone clutch for easy and smooth shift- ing, pattern-matched spiral bevel gears for op ti mum strength and minimum gear whine, and a break-away shaft cou pling to prevent costly drive train re pairs. The hydrodynamic design of the low er drive housing ensures excellent course stability both at high speed and when maneuvering at low speeds and in reverse. The drive is equipped with eas- i ly maneu vered hy drau lic pow er trim for ob tain ing the best run ning po si tion at dif- fer ent sea and load con di tions. For maximum corrosion protection the drive has gone through a 23 step paint proc ess and comes equipped with sac ri -fi cial anodes both on the drive and tran-som shield. Either right- (standard) or left-hand ed pro pel lers can be used. A choice of stain- less steel and alu mi num pro pel lers are available for dif fer ent ap pli ca tions. The 5.0 features standard pow er steer- ing for maximum driv ing com fort.
