DELAVAL STEAM TURBINES
AND GEARS POWER
WORLD'S LARGEST LASH/
CONTAINER VESSEL.
A 32,000 horsepower main propulsion unit from DELAVAL powers the S.S. DELTA MAR - the largest LASH/container ves- sel ever built in the United
States. Delivered by Avondale
Shipyards to Delta Steamship
Lines, the 893 foot long DELTA
MAR joins a long line of distinc- tive vessels driven by DELAVAL main propulsion turbine and gear systems.
DELAVAL's main propul- sion units are products of over seven decades of research, de- velopment and commitment to the marine industry.
Electric power is generated in DELTA MAR by DELAVAL's new line of 2000 kw ship service turbine generators.
But that's not all—DELAVAL designs and builds condensers for surface vessels and subma- rines; quiet IMO® rotary pumps for fuel oil service, fuel oil trans- fer, lube oil service and hydrau- lic systems — (above or below deck); and the renowned
DELAVAL Enterprise diesel en- gine delivering up to 12,500 bhp to ships of all types.
