This marine equipment falls under the category of marine diesel engines. The MAN Energy Solutions 16V32/40-GS-60Hz is a robust and reliable engine designed for maritime applications, offering a power output of 7200 kW at 900 rpm. It is a four-stroke turbocharged diesel engine, configured in a V-formation with 16 cylinders, and it can run on Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO), Marine Diesel Oil (MDO), or Marine Gas Oil (MGO). The engine's cylinder displacement is 32 liters per cylinder, and it delivers a power per cylinder of 500 kW. Its advanced turbocharging system includes two-stage intercooling, ensuring efficient performance. The engine operates at a compression ratio of 4.5 and has a dry mass of 85 tonnes, making it suitable for large vessels. The MAN 16V32/40-GS-60Hz is part of the 32/40-GS family and is designed to meet Tier III emission standards. Common maintenance checks include monitoring for cylinder liner wear, piston ring sticking, charge air cooler fouling, crankcase explosion risks, and turbocharger bearing lubrication issues to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

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.
