Volvo Penta D6-300 – Inboard Diesel Engine 300 HP
Keel cooling options on commercial displacement vessels protect the Volvo Penta D6-300 tournament engine, which burns EN 590 diesel across an aftercooled 5.5L 6-cylinder block, producing 300 HP and 115 Amps charging across an HS63AE transmission at 1446 lbs.
- 5.5L block sustains 3300-RPM continuous output
- Keel cooling integration suits shallow working waters
- 115-Amp alternator maintains house battery charge
- Common rail direct injection lowers exhaust emissions
- SAE 4 housing fits standard marine gears
With 300 hp at 3,300 rpm, the Volvo Penta D6-300 uses a turbocharged and aftercooled 5.5L inline six-cylinder diesel configuration with common rail injection. The supplied specifications identify EN 590 or ASTM D975 diesel and a 17.5:1 compression ratio. Hydraulic marine gear, HS63AE or HS80AE drive options, SAE 4 flywheel housing, and Electronic Vessel Control define the listed propulsion-system arrangement.
The supplied dry weight is 656 kg, with a 12V 115-amp or 24V 80-amp alternator option. Heat-exchanger or keel cooling holds 16L coolant, while a water-cooled manifold forms the stated exhaust configuration. Pressure-feed wet-sump lubrication uses 20L oil capacity, and listed emissions ratings include EPA Tier 3, IMO II, and RCD II.
Why Choose the Volvo Penta D6-300 Marine Diesel Engine
The D6-300 marine diesel engine combines 300 hp at 3,300 rpm with turbocharging, aftercooling, and common rail injection in a 5.5L six-cylinder platform. Buyers can assess its Hydraulic Marine Gear, HS63AE or HS80AE drive compatibility, Electronic Vessel Control, and alternator options. The supplied cooling choices, 16L coolant capacity, and 20L oil capacity add useful engine-room planning information.
