The first of a new generation L16/24 MAN B&W Holeby announces the L16/24 GenSet, a family of engines that delivers 500-900 kW at 1,200 rpm they are the first of a new generation. Your first look will tell you that it is a very special GenSet. You will be surprised by its clean, stream- lined exterior, uncluttered by tubes and pipes. You will be even more surprised when you discover the many technical innovations we have built in to make it the most cost-effective GenSet in its class. State-of-the-art computer-aided engineering has been used to create a compact, easily maintained engine which uses the same inexpensive heavy fuel oil as the vessel's propulsion engines. With optimal efficiency across the entire power spectrum, from idle to full load, including the start/stop phase. MAN B&W Holeby has been producing fine diesel engines since 1910. Engines renowned for their reliability, operating economy and ease of maintenance. That is why we can say with confidence that the L16/24 sets the standard for the auxiliary diesel engines that will provide power for the world's merchant fleet lonqJutP the 21st century.
