Volvo Penta D4-175 175HP Inboard Diesel Marine Engine
Heavy displacement trawlers and commercial passenger vessels maintain low-RPM continuous propulsion with a Volvo Penta D4-175 commercial diesel, which extracts 175 HP from a turbocharged 3.669L block with 115 Amps charging at 1058 lbs.
- 3.669L turbocharged block produces 175 horsepower
- Low 2800-RPM rating suits heavy displacement hulls
- 115-Amp alternator sustains auxiliary commercial loads
- Closed-loop heat exchanger prevents saltwater scaling
During engine-room layout planning, the Volvo Penta D4-175 requires consideration of its 1,058-pound engine-only dry weight, 3.669L inline four-cylinder configuration, and 12V 115-amp alternator. Turbocharging, charge-air cooling, and common rail direct injection support the stated 175 hp output at 2,800 rpm. The thermostatically controlled heat-exchanger system, EVC network, transmission selection, and access around service components should be defined before final installation.
The supplied application data identifies low-RPM auxiliary propulsion or core mechanical drive for specified heavy-displacement motor yachts, passenger tenders, and trawlers. The stated fuel requirement is EN 590 or ASTM D975 No. 2-D diesel, and listed emissions include EPA Tier 3, IMO Tier II, and EU RCD 2. Final vessel suitability depends on the complete drivetrain, hull, shaft, propeller, and installation design.
Why Choose the Volvo Penta D4-175 Marine Diesel Engine
The D4-175 marine diesel engine combines 175 hp at 2,800 rpm with turbocharging, charge-air cooling, and common rail direct injection in a 3.669L four-cylinder layout. Buyers can assess its EVC control network, 12V 115-amp alternator, thermostatically controlled heat-exchanger cooling, and supplied 1,058-pound engine-only dry weight. The stated heavy-displacement application context provides an additional comparison point for propulsion planning.
