Auxiliary Engine (Generator Set) · Auxiliary Engines
The H32/40-GS family of engines, designed for 6 cylinders in a L configuration and operating on heavy fuel oil or marine diesel oil (MDO), achieves its powerful output through a 4-stroke cycle. Manufactured by HiMSEN, the 6LH32/40-GS-50Hz model delivers 2640 kW at 750 rpm with a compression ratio of 15:1 and a mean effective pressure of 24.9 bar. The engine features a Miller Cycle, turbocharging, and is optimized for heavy fuel operation. Operators should monitor the turbocharger for fouling or carbon deposits, inspect exhaust gas temperature differences between banks, check piston ring conditions, measure cylinder liner wear, and ensure proper fuel quality to maintain optimal performance and prevent common failures.
