MTU Diesel Engines 8V/12V/16V 4000 M60R for Vessels with Unrestricted Continuous Operation (1A)

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides technical specifications and details for the Diesel Engines 8V/12V/16V 4000 M60R, designed for vessels with unrestricted continuous operation. These engines are typically used in work boats, ferries, governmental vessels, tugs, barges, and large sailing yachts.

Engine Specifications: The engines are available in three models: 8V, 12V, and 16V, with rated power outputs of 700 kW (940 bhp), 1050 kW (1410 bhp), and 1400 kW (1875 bhp) respectively, all operating at 1600 rpm. They feature a bore/stroke of 165/190 mm and total displacements of 32.5, 48.7, and 65.0 liters.

Performance and Fuel Consumption: The engines demonstrate varying fuel consumption rates depending on speed and power output, with a tolerance of +5% per ISO 3046. Fuel consumption is measured in g/kWh and l/h, with specific values provided for different operational speeds.

Standard Equipment: Includes an electric starter motor, gear-driven lube oil pump, fuel delivery pump, MTU-split-circuit coolant system, and sequential turbocharging. The engines also come with a comprehensive engine management system (MDEC) and auxiliary power take-off options.

Optional Equipment: Options include a coolant preheating system, lube oil priming system, and various gearbox models. Additional monitoring and control systems are available, compliant with Classification Society Regulations.

Dimensions and Masses: The document provides detailed dimensions and dry mass for each engine model, with the 8V model being the smallest and lightest, and the 16V model being the largest and heaviest.

Compliance and Certification: All engines meet IMO emission regulations and can be certified by various classification societies such as ABS, BV, DNV, and others. Specifications are subject to change for technical progress.

Contact Information: Regional contact details for MTU offices in Europe, Asia, and the Americas are provided for further inquiries.
