The MAN 5G70ME-C9.6 is a low‑speed, five‑cylinder two‑stroke marine diesel engine delivering up to 34 350 kW at 91 rpm, notable for its hydraulic camshaft system and advanced electronic control that lower specific fuel consumption and meet IMO Tier III NOx limits.

Designation decoded

5 = Zylinderzahl, G = Green Ultra Long Stroke, 70 = Bohrung 700 mm, ME-C = MAN Electronically controlled Mark C, 9.6 = Mark 9.6 Steuerungsgeneration.

Background

Die G70ME-C mit 700mm Bohrung und 3256mm Hub (S/B=4.65) ist eine leistungsstarke Plattform. 5 Zylinder bei 700mm ist eher unueblich — typisch fuer spezifische Anwendungen mit moderater Leistung bei maximalem Wirkungsgrad. Grosse Containerschiffe und VLCCs nutzen normalerweise 6-8 Zylinder in dieser Bohrung.

Inspector checklist

Kraftstoffsystem
  • Kraftstoffpumpen: Plunger, Duesen, Spray-Pattern fuer 700mm-Brennraum
  • Vorwaermung: 12-15 cSt
  • Cat-Fines: <15 ppm, bei 700mm Bohrung mehr Schadenspotenzial
  • VLSFO
Laufzeug und Tribologie
  • Laufbuchsen 700mm: Grosser Durchmesser, Wear, BN, Honmuster
  • Kolbenringe: Thermische Verformung bei 700mm beachten
  • Kreuzkopf: S/B=4.65, 3256mm Hub, extreme Seitenkraefte, LI-Aufnahme kritisch
  • Stopfbuchse: Langer Hub ergibt erhoehte Drainage-Ueberwachung
ME-Steuerung
  • HPS 300 bar: Hohe Volumenstroeme
  • FIVA Mark 9.6
  • CCU
Turbolader
  • Groessere Einheit fuer 700mm
  • Reinigung, Lagerspiel
  • Spuelluftdruck

Common Failure Modes

  • Cat-Fine-Schaeden

    Symptoms: Liner-Wear, Kolbenring

    Causes: Separator, VLSFO

    Preventive: <15 ppm.

  • Kreuzkopf-Lagerschaden

    Symptoms: Klopfen, LI, Temperatur

    Causes: S/B=4.65, 3256mm Hub, Oel

    Preventive: LI alle 8000 Bh.

  • Cold Corrosion

    Symptoms: Wear

    Causes: BN, Teillast

    Preventive: BN anpassen.

Expert tips

  • 5 Zylinder bei G70 ist eine Sonderkonfiguration — Torsionsschwingungsanalyse und Barred Speed Range besonders beachten.
  • S/B=4.65 mit 3256mm Hub: Kreuzkopf-Inspektion ist die wichtigste Einzelmassnahme.
  • Bei 700mm Bohrung und nur 5 Zylindern: Relativ geringe Gesamtleistung — pruefen ob Motor im effizienten Lastbereich betrieben wird.

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

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.
