S2000

788 kWPower
12 / 16Cylinders

The S2000 model from Detroit Diesel and MTU Friedrichshafen Gmb is a propulsion engine designed for maritime applications. With a power output of 788 kW at 2100 RPM, this engine falls under IMO Category 1 due to its displacement per cylinder and combustion cycle specifications. The E3 general cycle applies for both fixed-pitch prop and variable-pitch or electrically-coupled prop configurations. Common failures include issues with combustion, lubricating oil pressure, cooling system performance, valve train, fuel system, and bearing deterioration. Regular maintenance should focus on exhaust temperature spread, lubricating oil pressure, cooling temperatures, starting behavior, vibration checks, and inspecting for leaks in the fuel, lubricating oil, cooling water, and exhaust systems. Critical components like sensors, relays, control modules, and essential pumps should be regularly serviced according to manufacturer recommendations.

Service

Service notes.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.

Review running records for exhaust-temperature spread, lubricating-oil pressure, cooling temperatures, starting behaviour, vibration and abnormal consumption trends. Inspect for fuel, lubricating-oil, cooling-water and exhaust leaks and check the condition of flexible connections, mounts, foundations and coupling or gearbox interfaces. Examine filters, coolers, pumps, valve gear, injectors and accessible combustion components in accordance with the planned-maintenance system. Check crankcase condition, oil analysis and any available bearing or vibration monitoring for developing wear. A surveyor should verify alarms, shutdowns, overspeed protection, emergency stopping arrangements and guarding of moving or hot parts as applicable to the installation. For cylinder dimensions, rotational speed, pressures, clearances, temperatures, wear limits and setting values, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Replacement Parts

Spare parts notes

Carry fuel-filter and lubricating-oil-filter elements, approved seals and gaskets, injector service or replacement components, valve-train wear parts appropriate to the engine, and service parts for essential pumps. Critical installations should also hold selected sensors, relays or control modules, starting-system components, belts or flexible elements where fitted, and manufacturer-recommended bearing or cylinder-head service items. The exact onboard spare scale should follow the manufacturer, class requirements, engine redundancy and the vessel's trading pattern.

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.
