On board ships, especially those requiring robust auxiliary power, the 6LDC-17e-GS-60Hz is a reliable workhorse. With a displacement of approximately 11,600 cubic centimeters and capable of producing 750 kW at 900 revolutions per minute, this engine powers through heavy fuel oil or marine diesel oil with ease. Its robust design includes critical components like the fuel injection valve that require regular inspection to maintain optimal performance. Additionally, the mounting bolts for the high-pressure block should be torqued precisely to avoid failures. The engine's sturdy construction ensures it can handle the vibrations associated with shipboard operations, but reinforcement on the fuel main pipe is recommended to prevent issues. Regular maintenance and adherence to service bulletins are essential for ensuring long-term reliability and efficiency.

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

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
