The D9 in-line 6 diesel has been developed from the latest design in modern diesel technology. The engine has a robust block with ladder frame, high pressure unit injector system, four valves per cylinder, twin entry turbo and aftercooler - resulting in low fuel consumption and low emissions.
The D12 MH marine diesel engine has been specially designed and developed for installations in heavy duty commercial displacement craft, featuring the latest advanced diesel technology. The company says that excellent drivability is assured with high low-end and a rich torque curve matched to the power outputs for fast and immediate response.
