German MTU Mercedes-Benz diesel engines are world-class heavy-duty diesel engines with an excellent global reputation. The following is an introduction:

Company Background: MTU is the diesel propulsion division of Germany’s Daimler-Chrysler Group, with a history of over 100 years. It has always been an outstanding representative of the highest quality in the industry.

Product Series: The MTU 2000 and 4000 series diesel engines were launched in 1997. They include models with 8, 12, 16, 18, and 20 cylinders, with power outputs ranging from 270 kW to 2720 kW.

Technical Features: They feature a 90° V-type configuration with a robust gray cast iron cylinder block. The 2000 series uses electronically controlled unit pump fuel injection, while the 4000 series employs a common rail fuel injection system, ensuring precise fuel delivery. Equipped with an advanced electronic management system (MDEC), the engines offer fault diagnosis and unit management functions, providing real-time information on engine usage and lifespan. They use sequential turbochargers and a dual-circuit water cooling system to keep the engine in thermal balance at all times.

Performance Advantages: The engines deliver excellent fuel economy, with a fuel consumption rate as low as 189 g/kWh. Emissions are optimized to meet Germany’s TA-Luft standards, California Air Resources Board (CARB) standards, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards, and the European Union (EURO) non-road vehicle emission standards. The engines have strong adaptability and require no power derating at 400 meters altitude and 40°C ambient temperature. They also feature excellent load response characteristics. The first overhaul intervals for the 2000 and 4000 series engines are 24,000 hours and 30,000 hours respectively, the longest among similar products.

Application Fields: These products are widely used in ships, heavy-duty vehicles, construction machinery, railway locomotives, and other fields, providing reliable power for land, marine, and railway power systems as well as generator set engines.
