MAN Truck & Bus To Expand Marine Engine Line

Posted on June 6, 2014

MAN Truck & Bus revealed it will introduce a new vee-configuration 12-cylinder diesel engine for heavy-duty marine applications at the SMM show in September. The new D2862 LE441 marine diesel will be rated 735 kW (985 hp), which is a significant increase from the existing D28 engines, the company said.

The company said that through use of a single-stage wastegate turbocharger with charge-air intercooler and adapted valve timing, the engine’s mean pressure was increased and power output raised by 73 kW over the previous D28 engines. In addition, a common rail fuel injection system with EDC control allows for a pre-injection stage, which provides significant benefits in terms of vibration and noise emissions, MAN said.

Engine design and materials

If break mean effictive pressures and ignition pressures are to be achieved, high-strength materials and a rigid engine block design are needed. The crankcases of the D20, D26 and D28 engine ranges are made of high-quality CGI-450 (compacted graphite iron). This material is much stronger than grey cast iron.
