Volvo Penta launches new diesel-powered 4-7 liter industrial engines

Volvo Penta launches new diesel-powered 4-7 liter industrial engines for mobile applications. The new compact, powerful engines have many application areas. The new industrial engines, whose rated power range is between 66 to 195 kW, are intended for all imaginable applications including materials-handling, construction and agricultural machinery. This launch represents a significant broadening of the Volvo Penta industrial engine range.

Environment and comfort
The new engines are designated T(A)D420VE, TAD520VE, TAD620VE, TAD720VE and TAD721VE.
Individual unit pumps (one per cylinder) provide a high injection pressure, which gives low emissions combined with low fuel consumption. This technology allows Volvo Penta to meet current and future emissions regulations. The T(A)D420VE can be equipped with an integrated balance axel, which results in even and vibration-free operation.

Customer adaptation
A broad selection of extra features and the possibility to adapt power output give the installer a great deal of freedom. The engine has three power outlets at the rear and full power output may also be obtained from the front end.

Low fuel consumption and long service intervals provide advantageous overall economy for the customer.
Serial deliveries to customers will begin during the fall, 2001.

Easy maintenance
The new engines are easy to maintain. Modern injection technology, integrated oil coolers and easily accessed service points from one side provide the best possible accessibility in the machine installation. The engines have exchangeable cylinder linings, which means lower service charges for the user (does not apply to the T(A)D420VE). The engines are equipped with Poly-V-belts as standard, which means less maintenance.

The global Volvo Penta service organization provides original parts, well-trained mechanics and technical support in more than 130 countries.
