Volvo MD2010 - Presentation

General
The engines are in-line, 4-stroke, marine diesel engines
fitted with top valves. MD2010 has two cylinders, while
MD2020 , MD2030 and MD2040 have three cylinders.
The engines are of the pre-chamber type and equipped
with glow plugs which are activated before and during
starting.
The engines are fitted with thermostat regulated fresh
water cooling. The cooling system is divided into a
fresh water and a sea water system. The sea water
cools the fresh water system via a heat exchanger.
Lubricating takes place by means of an oil pressure
system where an oil pump presses oil to all the lubrica-
tion point. The oil system is provided with a replaceable
oil filter of the full-flow type.
The fuel system is protected from impurities by a re-
placeable fine filter.
