16.12 liter, in-line 6 cylinder

 

The TAD1643VE-B is a powerful, reliable and economical Versatile Diesel Engine built on the dependable Volvo in-line six design.

 

DURABILITY & LOW NOISE

Designed for the easiest, fastest and most economical installation. Well balanced to produce smooth and vibration-free operation with low noise level, featured with high torque. To maintain a controlled working temperature in cylinders and combustion chambers, the engine is equipped with piston cooling. The engine is also fitted with replaceable cylinder liners and valve seats/guides to ensure maximum durability and service life of the engine.

 

OPERATIONAL ECONOMY & LOW EXHAUST EMISSION

The state of the art, high-tech injection and air charging system with low internal losses contributes to excellent combustion and low fuel consumption.

 

EASY SERVICE & MAINTENANCE

Easily accessible service and maintenance points contribute to the ease of service of the engine.

  • Proven and straight-forward design – built on Volvo Group technology
  • High power and torque already at low engine speed
  • Compact, simple installation and easy to service
  • Exhaust emission reduction system without EGR
  • Similar engine footprint for all emission standards
  • High sulfur-in-fuel tolerance

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

ENGINE AND BLOCK

  • Optimized cast iron cylinder block with optimum distribution of forces without the block being unnecessary heavy.
  • Wet, replaceable cylinder liners
  • Piston cooling for low thermal load on pistons and reduced ring temperature
  • Tapered connecting rods to reduce risk of piston cracking
  • Crankshaft has induction hardened bearing surfaces and fillets with seven main bearings for moderate load on main and big-end bearings
  • Nitrocarburized transmission gears for heavy duty operation
  • Keystone top compression rings for long service life
  • Viscous type crankshaft vibration damper
  • Replaceable valve guides and valve seats
  • Overhead camshaft and four valves per cylinder equipped with camshaft damper to reduce noise and vibrations.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM

  • Full flow oil cooler
  • Full flow disposable spin-on oil filters
  • The lubricating oil level can be measured during operation (Standard dipstick only)
  • Gear type lubricating oil pump, gear driven by the transmission

FUEL SYSTEM

  • Self de-aerating system. When replacing filters all fuel stays in the engine.
  • Non-return fuel valve
  • Electronic Unit Injectors
