Featuring a modular design and integral construction, the 16-cylinder 16CM43 engine generates up to 14.4 MW of power and is designed for simplified maintenance, high efficiency and low emissions. The engine is equipped with semi-dry wear-resistant liners with calibration inserts, pistons with forged steel crowns and aluminum skirts, inlet-outlet valves outfitted with armored seats, and a high-efficiency turbocharger. Its one-piece dry engine block is made from high-strength cast iron and operates free from cooling water with an underslung crankshaft.
