- EMS electronic control system for optimized fuel efficiency
- Advanced monitoring with Volvo Penta Marine Commercial Control System
Volvo Penta D8 MG is available in two versions: 50 Hz, 1,500 rpm, and 60 Hz, 1,800 rpm. In-line 6-cylinder marine diesel genset featuring common-rail fuel injection, an overhead camshaft, and a twin-entry turbo. It’s designed to handle high back pressure and high-sulfur fuel, up to 1,000 ppm. The SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) exhaust aftertreatment system is designed for an optimal fit. The SCR unit, which also acts as a silencer, reduces noise by 35-40 dBA. Volvo Penta has met IMO III and Inland Waterway Stage V exhaust emission targets while maintaining low fuel consumption. Thanks to SCR, the engine power output remains unaffected.
