Volvo Penta D6-330 – Marine Diesel Engine 330 HP

Description

Using a turbocharged and aftercooled 5.5L inline six-cylinder diesel configuration, the Volvo Penta D6-330 produces 330 hp at 3,500 rpm. Common rail injection, a 17.5:1 compression ratio, and EN 590 or ASTM D975 diesel define the supplied fuel-system specification. Hydraulic marine gear, HS63AE or HS80AE drive configurations, SAE 4 flywheel housing, and Electronic Vessel Control form the listed propulsion interfaces.

The supplied dry weight is 656 kg, while heat-exchanger cooling holds 16L coolant and the water-cooled manifold forms the stated exhaust configuration. Pressure-feed wet-sump lubrication uses 20L oil capacity. Alternator options include 12V 150 amps or 24V 80 amps, and the listed emissions ratings include EPA Tier 3, IMO II, and RCD II.

Key Specifications of the Volvo Penta D6-330 Marine Diesel Engine

• The 5.5L inline six-cylinder engine produces 330 hp at 3,500 rpm through turbocharged and aftercooled common rail diesel operation.
• Common rail injection supports the supplied EN 590 or ASTM D975 fuel requirement with a stated 17.5:1 compression ratio.
• HS63AE or HS80AE drive options require drivetrain confirmation alongside the hydraulic marine gear and SAE 4 flywheel housing.
• Electronic Vessel Control requires compatibility planning between the engine, helm controls, propulsion package, and vessel electrical system.
• Alternator options include 12V 150-amp or 24V 80-amp outputs for the listed electrical-system configurations.
• Heat-exchanger cooling holds 16L coolant, while the water-cooled manifold defines the specified exhaust-system arrangement.
• Pressure-feed wet-sump lubrication uses 20L oil capacity, requiring service access for scheduled maintenance and fluid inspection.

Engine Configuration and Service Access

This Volvo Penta marine diesel engine uses 103 by 110 mm bore and stroke dimensions in an inline six-cylinder, four-stroke layout. The turbocharger, aftercooler, common rail fuel system, heat exchanger, water-cooled manifold, alternator, and hydraulic gear should remain accessible after installation.

The supplied 656 kg dry weight, Electronic Vessel Control, drive interface, cooling system, lubrication arrangement, and electrical connections should be assessed together. Final engine-bed loading and service clearance depend on the completed propulsion installation.

Why Choose the Volvo Penta D6-330 Marine Diesel Engine

The D6-330 marine diesel engine combines 330 hp at 3,500 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 options, Electronic Vessel Control, and dual-voltage alternator configurations. The supplied 656 kg weight, 16L coolant capacity, and 20L oil capacity provide additional engine-room planning data.

Installation and Compatibility Considerations

Confirm engine-bed capacity for the supplied 656 kg dry weight and verify the final propulsion package, SAE 4 flywheel housing, hydraulic marine gear, HS63AE or HS80AE drive configuration, and Electronic Vessel Control compatibility. Plan shaft alignment, propeller matching, fuel supply, cooling-water intake, water-cooled manifold routing, alternator voltage, ventilation, and service clearance before installation.

Use fuel meeting EN 590 or ASTM D975 requirements. Confirm provisions for 16L coolant capacity, 20L wet-sump oil capacity, hydraulic gear servicing, and access to the common rail system, turbocharger, aftercooler, cooling system, exhaust manifold, and electrical components.

Warranty and Support

Warranty coverage should be confirmed against the current Volvo Penta warranty policy applicable to the exact engine, purchase market, installation, and operating use.
