Model 12AYM-WET
For Harmonious Living with Global Environment MARINE DIESEL ENGINE Type V-type, vertical, water-cooled, 4-cycle diesel engine

Normally, when NOx emissions are reduced, the fuel consumption and smoke generation will increase, No. of cylinders, Bore× stroke mm 12, 155 × 180
adversely affecting both the environment and management. As a solution to this, YANMAR has developed “Eco Diesel”, Displacement lit. 40.76
which is designed so as to comply with marine environmental protection.
Rated output kW ( hp) / rpm M: 1220 ( 1659 ) / 1900 ( at flywheel ) H: 1140 ( 1550 ) / 1840 ( at flywheel )
It improves the fuel consumption and smoke generation in addition to reducing NOx emissions.
