Circle 96 on Reader Service Card

The Electro-Motive Division (EMD) of General

Motors Corp. produces diesel power for marine propulsion, offshore and land-based oil well drilling rigs, power generation and other indus- tries. A complete line of GM/EMD engines is reportedly available to meet requirements for marine propulsion and marine generator set applications. A complete power package with engine, reverse-reduction gear or generator and accessories is available through the EMD Power

Products Distribution Network worldwide.

Propulsion units are also reportedly available without skid mounting for direct application to the vessel structure.

For marine propulsion, EMD offers eight, 12, and 16-cylinder Roots-Blown 645E6 series engines and eight, 12, 16 and 20-cylinder tur- bocharged 645F7B and 710G7B diesels. The

Roots-Blown models offer a power range from 1,050 to 2,100 hp at 900 rpm. The hjr- bocharged engine rating range begins at 1,700 hp for the eight-cylinder 645F7B. For genset applications, EMD engines cover a continuous output range from 745 to 3,580 kW at 60 Hz- 900 rpm and 570 to 2,980 kW at 50 Hz-750 rpm. Electro-Motive continues its ongoing research efforts to improve engine performance, particularly in the areas of fuel efficiency and emissions with an emphasis on electronic fuel injection.
