Specifications
| Gross Mechanical Output | 275-358 kWm |
| Typical Electrical Output | 292-386 kVA (234-309 kWe) |
| Emissions | U.S. EPA Tier 3 |
Benefits & Features
Dependable power
1506D series delivers greater productivity through an improved power to weight ratio.
The world-class power density has been achieved from an 8.8 litre turbocharged engine using a hydraulic actuated
unit injection (HEUI) fuel system; making this engine robust for all markets due to its ability to cope with the variation
of fuel quality around the world.
Lower operating costs
The 1500 Series in designed to provide low cost of ownership, simple maintenance and reduced downtime. Oil change intervals are set at 500 hours as standard.
World class product support
