Yanmar range for motor pumps, also active 24 hours a day
Power output ranging from approximately 25 to 70 horsepower. This is the range covered by Yanmar engines designed to power high and medium-flow pump systems for irrigation or construction, systems that, in most cases, are required to operate for long periods under variable loads and speeds, as well as in full autonomy, without constant or direct supervision by an operator. Dedicated Product Line A demanding operational profile, for which Yanmar has developed a specific product line based on four different three- and four-cylinder units, all Stage V compliant and offered…
Read MoreThe new “Engine Teardown Area” of Fpt Industrial
Three thousand square meters divided among areas dedicated to teardown benches (in Italian, the disassembly of engines for potential overhauls) and local and remote diagnostics, along with training areas. All of this is set between past and future, from an exhibition of the most important engines that have shaped the brand’s history over the past hundred years to the latest technologies in electrified systems. This is how the new “Engine Teardown Area,” created by FPT Industrial within its Turin plant, is presented: a space structured to meet the new assistance…
Read MoreReduced engine maintenance with Texaco oil
“Tact Von Eller-Ebersteinsche Bga Gbr” is the name of a mixed-type farm operating in northern Germany. In 2011, alongside traditional agricultural production, it started producing electricity from a cogeneration plant powered by a 250-kilowatt Man engine fueled with biogas. The electricity was entirely fed into the grid, while the heat from the engine’s cooling system was used to heat barns and residential buildings. In 2020, due to the positive results from energy production, the plant was expanded with the addition of a second Man engine, this time with a power…
