ABOUT MWM TCG 3016

Gas Engine Features

All Gas Engines
1

More
Profit

The optimised maintenance concept with cylinder units simplifies accessibility and, along with reduction of the number of different parts, minimises the time required for maintenance.

2

Longer
Run Times

Thanks to the extended service intervals, runs up to 200 hours longer per annum than comparable products. The major overhaul is scheduled after 80,000 operating hours

3

Generator Reliability

The particle-free combustion, with pre-chamber spark plugs, extends the service intervals for the exhaust gas heat exchanger and reduces service costs compared to other combustion methods.

4

Optimum
Efficiency

All components relevant for efficiency and power output are monitored by the TEM. The new, upgraded wastegate in particular ensures a more efficient operation with changing conditions.

5

Turbo
Power

The high-pressure turbocharger A140, with an improved wastegate, allows operation with a broader air intake temperature range and up to higher altitudes.
