This product falls under the category of marine diesel engines, designed for robust performance in various maritime applications. The HiMSEN 9LH35/40-GS-50Hz is a high-capacity engine with a power output of 4590 kW, featuring nine cylinders and a 350 mm bore, paired with a 400 mm stroke. This engine operates at a standard speed of 750 rpm and is capable of running on heavy fuel oil (HFO) or marine diesel oil (MDO), with the option for dual-fuel operation using natural gas. The engine is designed to deliver a genset output of 4360 kW and 5450 kVA at 50 Hz, making it suitable for large-scale marine operations. The 9LH35/40-GS-50Hz is part of HiMSEN's H35/40-GS family, which has been widely recognized as a market leader in the medium-speed marine diesel class, with over 10,000 units delivered to 43 countries. Regular maintenance is essential to prevent common issues such as excessive valve clearance, fuel injector nozzle carbon deposits, and cylinder liner scuffing. These issues require periodic inspections and adjustments, including valve clearance checks, fuel injector cleaning, and oil analysis. Additionally, crankshaft bearing wear and cylinder cover gasket leakage must be monitored during service intervals, particularly after 16,000 hours of marine auxiliary service.

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.
