Designed to deliver high performance and reliability, the 16V H32/40 by HiMSEN features a robust 4-stroke, turbocharged engine with Miller Cycle technology. This advanced design ensures efficient combustion and optimal power output, making it well-suited for heavy-duty marine applications. The engine is part of the H17/28 family, boasting a bore of 320 mm, a stroke of 400 mm, and 16 cylinders. It achieves a maximum continuous rated (MCR) power of 9280 kW at 750 rpm, with a compression ratio of 15:1 and a mean effective pressure of 25.9/24.9 bar at 720/750 rpm. The specific fuel oil consumption is 179 g/kWh at 720 rpm and 181 g/kWh at 750 rpm, while the specific lubricating oil consumption is 0.7 g/kWh. The engine supports multiple fuel types, including MDO and MGO, and complies with IMO Tier II regulations. Notable features include a compact and cost-effective design, in-house production by HHI, and a growing global market share. Despite its powerful capabilities, common maintenance concerns involve issues such as turbocharger fouling, exhaust gas temperature imbalances, piston ring damage, cylinder liner scuffing, and fuel injection nozzle coking. Regular inspections and timely maintenance can help mitigate these potential problems, ensuring the engine operates at peak efficiency.

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.
