Power
at declared engine speed is in accordance with
ISO3046-1:2002E. Caterpillar maintains
ISO9001:1994/QS-9000 approved engine test facilities
to assure accurate calibration of test equipment.
Electronically controlled engines are set at the factory at
the advertised power corrected to standard ambient
conditions. The published fuel consumption rates are in
accordance with ISO3046-1:2002E.
Fuel rates
are based on fuel oil of 35 API [16C (60F)] gravity
having an LHV of 42 780 kJ/kg (18,390 Btu/lb)when
used at 29C (85F) and weighing 838.9 g/L (7.001
lb/U.S. gal). Additional ratings may be available for
specific customer requirements. Consult your Caterpillar
representative for additional information.

Performance data is calculated in accordance with tolerances and conditions stated in this specification sheet and is
only intended for purposes of comparison with other manufacturer's engines. Actual engine performance may vary
according to the particular application of the engine and operating conditions beyond Caterpillar's control.
Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 49 C (120 F) combustion air temperature
measured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52 C (125F) measured at the fuel filter base. Power
rated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power. Reduce crankshaft power by 3% for propeller shaft
power.

A&I Checklist
Introduction
Fuel System
Marine engine installations require careful consideration 1. Are the fuel tanks clean, properly vented to the
to ensure reliable and economical performance. The
atmosphere, and equipped with drain plugs at the
following checklist is provided to highlight some of the bottom?
more important areas which should be considered when
applying and installing marine engines. Detailed
2. Are fuel lines clean and of sufficient size, and are they
information regarding these guidelines can be found in connected to the engine through flexible connections?
the Cat Marine Engine Application and Installation
Guide, Form LEGM4724-4737.
3. Are primary fuel filters properly installed?
For vessels required to meet standards of marine
classification societies or government agencies, the
appropriate society or agency should be consulted on
their current requirements. Brief information on the
various internationally recognized marine classification
societies with whom Caterpillar has homologation
agreements is given in the Technical Marketing
Information on- line system or microfiche.
Electrical System
1. Are engine accessory electrical circuits properly fused
or protected by circuit breakers?
2. Are wires properly grouped, identified, and securely
fastened?
3. Are dissimilar metals in contact with sea water
electrically isolated from each other?

Starting System
1. If electric starting is used, are batteries of correct
voltage and capacity for the minimum ambient
temperature expected? Are they located as near to the
starter motor as possible, adequately held down and
protected, and properly ventilated? Are cables
connecting the batteries to the starter motor of the
correct size? Is battery charging provision adequate?
Control System
1. Are auto start stop controls required?
2. Is required overload protection in place?
3. Has system been tested against maximum block
loading (if required)?

Exhaust System
Cooling System
1. Is the external water piping to and from the engine
1. Are exhaust pipes of sufficient size and free of sharp jacket water inlet and outlet of proper size? Is it
bends so recommended backpressure tolerances are connected as direct to the engine as possible, with
not exceeded?
flexible connections close to the engine?
2. Are exhaust pipes independently supported and
isolated from the engine by flexible connections?
