GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Baudouin 264kW Diesel Engine

Dependable 9.7L Power

The 6M16G275/5 uses a 9.7 litre six cylinder inline engine design to provide steady mechanical power for large sites. It couples with alternators to power industrial facilities, large pump systems, agricultural equipment and commercial properties during main grid blackouts.

Turbocharging and Charge Cooling

The engine pairs forced turbocharging with an air-to-air intercooler to optimise intake air density. This setup increases combustion efficiency, allowing the engine to absorb load connections smoothly while keeping electrical frequencies stable.

Fuel Delivery and Speed Control

A mechanical inline fuel pump works together with an electronic speed governor to monitor engine RPM. This design adjusts fuel flow under varying load demands, maintaining consistent engine speed and keeping fuel consumption predictable.

Temperature Management

Built with expanded fluid jackets and a powerful radiator, the engine operates in ambient heat up to 50°C. The internal cooling loop distributes fluid evenly across all six cylinders to prevent thermal damage during long operational cycles.

Key Technical Features
  • Fuel Efficiency: Optimised fuel delivery and air intake keep fuel usage low and ongoing operating costs predictable.
  • 24V Starting System: Powered by an 8.5kW starter motor and dual battery setup for reliable starting.
  • Simplified Maintenance: Accessible filter points and a mechanical fuel pump keep routine servicing straightforward.
  • Quality Standards: Manufactured to European quality standards to ensure reliable performance across all applications.
