D12-715 (715-hp)


Brief Summary

Diesel Engine - The D12-715 is a further development of the successful and well-proven high pressure unit-injected and 4 valves per cylinder D12 marine engine.



Electronically governed wastegate turbo, a newdesigned heat exchanger for reduced charge-aircooling temperature in combination with a new injection system, and a new Engine Management System (EMS-2) further improve performance and driveability, meeting future stringent emission requirements. A rigid in-line six cylinder block with ladder frame and vibration dampers on the camshaft results in a smooth-running engine for high onboard comfort, according to Volvo Penta.
