Yanmar 6LF530 – Inboard Diesel Engine 530 HP
Cruising heavy planing hulls at 3000 RPM, a Yanmar 6LF530 auxiliary diesel pairs a turbocharged 6.7L inline-6 block with KMH61A hydraulic gears, generating 530 HP and 120 Amps charging across a 1720-lb frame.
- 6.7L block produces 530 continuous horsepower
- Turbocharged intercooler maintains high air density
- Hydraulic marine gear ensures positive prop engagement
- Heat exchanger loop isolates raw corrosive seawater
Pushing 530 horsepower at 3000 RPM from a 6.7-liter inline 6-cylinder block, the Yanmar 6LF530 delivers high continuous torque for luxury motor yachts and commercial craft. High-pressure common-rail fuel injection cuts mechanical clatter at idle, while turbocharged intercooled air management maintains intake air density during continuous high-speed cruising.
