5-cylinder turbo diesel with boost intercooling
and variable turbo charging
This engine impresses with high torque figures already at low
engine speeds thanks to variable turbo charging. Another

that is already silent by nature.
The engine was designed from scratch-up to accommodate
a second alternator, which means that engine dimensions hardly
change if a second, optional alternator is installed. This can be a
24 V alternator of 80 or 110 amp, but we also offer complete 230 V
power generation packages with this engine which offer alternatively 3,5 kW of 5,0 kW of household electricity whenever the
main engine is turning.

The TDI 230-6 “Blue Water” is based on our TDI 265-6, a
mechanically identical engine for powerboats, but reaches
maximum power already at 3,500 rpm. For particularly performance oriented offshore sailing yachts, the low weight of the engine
at only 325 kg is a positive factor as well. Additional alternators
on the TDI 230-6 are side mounted and available either for 24 V
