Marine Diesel Inboard Engine Baudouin 6M16 – Up To 26 kW

Product Overview

The 6M16 is a 9.7-liter, in-line 6-cylinder engine. It is recognized for its compact size and high power-to-weight ratio. Unlike larger displacement engines, the 6M16 is designed to offer high power outputs (up to 360 HP) in a smaller footprint, making it ideal for vessels with limited engine room space.

Key Performance Features

Mechanical Simplicity: Utilizes a straightforward mechanical injection system, ensuring high tolerance to varying fuel qualities and extreme ease of maintenance in remote areas.

Compact Efficiency: Offers one of the best power outputs in its class relative to its physical size, allowing for more versatile installation.

Genuine Marine Design: Features a cast iron block and individual cast iron cylinder heads, designed specifically for the marine environment rather than being a truck-engine conversion.

Robust Internal Components: Includes a steel forged crankshaft with 7 bearings and light alloy pistons with oil cooling galleries for extended life under heavy load.

Operating & Maintenance Data

Fuel Consumption: At the P2 rating (360 hp), consumption is approximately 69–70 L/h at full load.

Cooling System: A two-stage cooling circuit with a gear-driven centrifugal raw water pump and a bronze self-priming pump for high reliability.

Serviceability: Features duplex fuel filters that are replaceable while the engine is running, and accessible service points to minimize downtime.
