ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

ABC's four-stroke 8 cylinder line engine earned its good reputation thanks to its reliability and durability. Its simplicity made this engine one of ABC’s most wanted medium-speed engines for marine propulsion and power generation applications across the world.

A high engine displacement, a low brake mean effective pressure (BMEP), a mechanical injection system and an increasing torque curve at decreasing engine speed are just some of the main technical advantadges of our 8DZC engines in tugboats, fishing vessels, coasters, dredgers, ferries and other heavy duty applications. The axial-radial turbochargers’ response is second to none, allowing the engine to absorb huge shock loads in heavy sea conditions.

Our 8DZC engine offers real value for money. The engine is characterized by low fuel and lube oil consumption, resulting in an exceptionally low life-cycle cost. Besides Marine Gasoil (MGO) and Marine Diesel Oil (MDO), the 8DZC is able to run on Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO), vegetable oil, ... making it a very flexible, powerful and reliable source of energy.

The engine can be easily fitted with a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system for those marine applications requiring IMO Tier III and EPA 4 compliance. In addition, the SCR package can be extended with a diesel particulate filter (DPF), allowing the engine to meet the most stringent emission standards such as the future EU Stage V regulations.

All 8DZC engines can be fitted with modern sensors and operating systems so that they can be controlled with a touchscreen from the bridge but they remain 100 % mechanical, making it easier to maintain and more reliable. We call this "SMART": Simple, Mechanical, Affordable, Reliable and Tailormade according to your requirements.

The 8DZC is user-friendly and delivers outstanding performance under the toughest and most demanding conditions. It has been designed for easy and simple maintenance. Maintaining the required or specified performance was never as easy as with this engine.

We focus each day on producing quality products that deliver the best performance every hour and every day of the year. Our engineers are at your disposal to offer tailormade propulsion and power generation solutions.
