INTRODUCING THE NEW

WARTSILA VASA 20 AUXILIARY ENGINE

Designed for low cost

The new production technology has permitted minimizing the number of engine parts by maximizing component integration. This contributes to reduced maintenance and high reliability. The Vasa 20 is also de- signed for easy access to all parts of the engine that require service.

It all adds up to low cost, reliability and good overall economy.

Designed for easy installation

The very rigid engine block of the Vasa 20 allows standard use of four- point support. Other features ensuring easy and secure installation include adjustable feet arrangement, small overall dimensions, a mini- mum number of external connections, a plug-in system for connection to the external control and monitoring systems. The engine also features two cost-efficient options for resilient mounting.

Optimized for low fuel consumption

High firing pressures combined with optimal cylinder dimensions and state-of-the-art engine components guarantee quick load response and good performance over the whole load range - and with remarkably low fuel consumption.

Based on the Wartsila Diesel heavy fuel technology

The heavy fuel technology featured in the Wartsila Vasa 20 is based on

Wartsila Diesel's thorough understanding of oil chemistry and on the company's vast heavy fuel experience which has been compiled over the years into an efficient know-how base.

The Vasa 20 has been designed to operate on the lowest grade fuel types available. It operates on the very same fuel as the ship's main engine. Numerous feasibility studies prove this to be the most eco- nomical means of generating electricity onboard.
