This marine diesel engine is commonly found on ships requiring reliable propulsion and electrical generation, operating efficiently with various fuel types including MGO, MDO, and HFO. It delivers a power output of 4050 kW at 750 RPM, making it suitable for a wide range of vessel sizes and types. The engine is a 9-cylinder, four-stroke turbocharged design with advanced two-stage intercooling and a compression ratio of 4.5. This configuration ensures optimal performance and efficiency, particularly in scenarios where the engine operates at 85% load or less. The dry mass of the engine varies depending on the configuration, with the specific 9L32/40-GS-50Hz model having a dry mass that is not directly listed but can be inferred from similar configurations. Maintenance considerations include monitoring cylinder liner wear, ensuring piston rings are free from residue buildup, and checking for charge air cooler fouling that can affect air pressure and temperature. Additionally, regular inspections of the crankcase and turbocharger are necessary to prevent potential explosion risks and bearing failures.

Free of charge — send us your request for MAN Energy Solutions equipment. Our team checks it and replies by e-mail.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
