Ins Marine Power rkins has a comprehensive line Irine engines. Through its ac- tion of Dorman Diesels in 1994, j)mpany has further strength- Jits product lineup, which now ies engines up to 1,970 bhp. |rkins Sea King engines form a of purpose designed, turbo- fejed marine engines internation- proven in applications across lountry. In 1992, the Sea King |p to 1,528 bhp) and Sea King 16 ]to 1,970 bhp) V-form engines launched to complement the ting six and eight cylinder in- | models (up to 985 bhp). Sea engines now form a seamless jje, covering the power band 300- JO bhp. The Sea King range is table for, and internationally Ven in, main propulsion, auxil- K marine generating and pump llications throughout Europe, Indinavia and the Far East. In rope, Sea King engines have |ven a particular success in fish- boat, workboat and inland wa- irays applications, such as fer- and dry cargo ships.

Pielstick I Japanese shipowner Shin Nihon- fii Ferry has ordered two 173,000 ferry liners from the shipyard likawajima Harima Heavy Indus- lies (IHI) in Tokoyo. The maxi- mum speed of the liners will be 30.8 lots. The propulsion machinery is fmposed of two 18 PC4.2B diesel lgines running on heavy fuel; Manufactured by Diesel United in le AIOI factory. The unit output is 13,850 kW at 410 rpm. Each engine ml drive a controllable pitch pro- leller through a IHI planetary re- luction gear and a Geislinger elas- tic coupling. Each engine, weighing B68 tons, will be installed on 20 resilient pads made of rubber to reduce hull vibrations and increase phe passengers' comfort. For more information on S.E.M.T.

GEC Alsthom Paxman Diesels manufacture com- I pact high-speed diesel engines, suit- able for high speed marine craft propulsion, marine power genera- tion as well as offshore and indus- trial power general applications. The Paxman range currently covers the 560-3,710 kWb (750-4,973 bhp) power band. GEC Alsthom Ruston Diesels manufactures a comprehensive range of medium speed diesel en- gines providing reliable and eco- nomical main propulsion and auxil- iary power for a variety of vessels including offshore patrol boats, minesweepers, corvettes, tugs, fer- ries, supply boats, fishing vessels, coasters and high speed catama- rans. The Ruston series of engines has a power range from 750 to 6,875 Kwb (1,005-9,220 bhp). For more information on GEC Alsthom Diesels Circle 110 on Reader Service Card Caterpillar Inc. Caterpillar continues to refine and devlop its offering of engines for the marine market. Of most signifi- cance to the workboat market is the addition of the 3500 Series B en- gines. Caterpillar took a top selling family of engines and strengthened them to handle electronics and the advantages electronics offer. The mechanical 3500 engines are the No. 1 selling engines in their horse- power range, the company reports. But electronics improve fuel effi- ciency and emissions levels, and provide enhanced diagnostic and monitoring capabilities. The 3500 Series B electronically controlled engines show an average increase in power output of 17 to 30 percent while either reducing fuel consumption by as much as 15 per- cent with some emission reduction il'I'.Ml jjSffrSI |nj •TOSI / ^-"^pS and torop NP Circle 271 on Reader Service Card
