OVERVIEW
YANMAR 8LV FEATURES AND
APPLICATIONS
The 8LV series are four-stroke direct injection
diesel engines equipped with liquid coolant
systems.
The 8LV series is V-8-cylinder and turbocharged
with an air cooler and equipped a common rail fuel
injection system.
This engine is designed for pleasure craft use.
It is recommended that new vessels be propped so
the engines can operate at 95 % load at 3800 min
-1
(rpm).
Failure to do so can lead to reduced vessel
performance, lead to increased smoke levels and
cause permanent damage to your engine.
The engine must be installed correctly with coolant
lines, exhaust gas lines and electrical wiring. Any
auxiliary equipment attached to the engine should
be easy to use and accessible for service. To
handle the drive equipment, propulsion systems
(including the propeller) and other onboard
equipment, always observe the instructions and
cautions given in the operation manuals supplied
by the shipyard and equipment manufacturers.
The 8LV series engines are designed to be
operated at maximum throttle (3600 to 3800 min
-1
(rpm)) for less than 5 % of total engine time (30
minutes out of every 10 hours) and cruising speed
(3600 min
-1
(rpm) or less) for less than 90 % of
total engine time (9 hours out of every 10 hours).
The laws of some countries may require hull and
engine inspections, depending on the use, size and
cruising area of the boat. The installation, fitting
and surveying of this engine all require specialized
knowledge and engineering skills. See Yanmar’s
local subsidiary in your region or your authorized
Yanmar Marine dealer or distributor.
