Engine Range

CONQUERING THE EXTREME

Long hours underground. Hours upon hours of demanding use. This is where Volvo Penta engines can make a difference. Based on our more than 100 years of experience in engineering, our engine range will help mining operators maximize uptime through the help of durable, robust, safe and fuel-efficient engines supplemented with fast and reliable service and support.

HEAVY-DUTY PACKAGE

Volvo Penta’s optional heavy-duty package will help you increase engine uptime when working in demanding environments. External forces, vibration and dust can put a strain on the engines used in construction equipment. The heavy-duty package comes with a cooling system, wiring harness and air filter specifically designed to withstand harsh, strenuous and dusty conditions.

Uptime

LOWERING THE VENTILATION RATES

Improving underground conditions requires advanced engine technology in addition to optimized ventilation rates. But proper ventilation of an underground mine is energy-consuming – and expensive. At the industry’s forefront for low emissions, Volvo Penta engines can help operators decrease ventilation rates and improve overall air quality in the mine, leading to cleaner air – and lowered costs.

ENGINE COMMONALITY AND VERSATILITY

Our industrial engines are all engineered to be part of a common platform. This means a future-proof engine range with engine interfaces and range architecture that match the different emission stages. The platform commonality also facilitates service and parts availability. The engine’s functionality can be further improved through optional equipment such as cooling systems, remote dipsticks or oil fills.

EXTENDED SERVICE INTERVALS

To maximize uptime, most Volvo Penta Industrial engines can operate for 1,000 hours between service intervals. Productivity can be increased and uptime maximized by using the corresponding service protocol, an approved Volvo Penta Oil Analysis and genuine Volvo Penta oil filters with the appropriate oil and fuel quality.
