Design Features
Crankshaft with thrust bearing
Generously sized trunnions capable of bearing the single-part gearwheel for the control drive.
Camshaft
The camshaft is, as built, equipped with vibration dampers.
Cylinder liner with calibration ring
Robust cylinder liner protected from wear that has longer oil change intervals thanks to reduced dirt intake.
Multifunctional cooling water ring
Cooling water ring catering action during assembly of cylinder liner and head and protects cylinder head bolts from corrosion.

Piston
First ring with chromium ceramic-plated running surface
High-efficiency turbocharger
Corrosion-free turbocharger with low temperature level of components surrounding the combustion chamber.
Cylinder head
Complex component in nodular cast iron, stiffness from twin-bottom design.

Injection Pumps
Monobloc designed injection pumps with constant-pressure valve and integrated low-pressure damping preventing high pressure pulses.
