VOLVO PENTA MARINE DIESEL
D49A MS
880 – 970 kW (1197 – 1319hp) crankshaft power
Powerful and reliable
engine for demanding
operation in commercial
applications
The Volvo Penta D49A MS engine is
designed to meet the most demand-
ing requirements, such as marine
main propulsion or marine generator
drive. Its compactness and durability
applies the most advanced technolo-
gies and engineering know-how; all
this to benefit the operator.
The Volvo Penta D49A MS diesel
engine is built to the highest quality
standards recognized by all the major
marine classification societies, such
as Germanischer Lloyds, Norske
Veritas etc. as well as the national
Shipping Inspections.
Volvo Penta is continuously making
intensive research work on the ma-
rine application of the engine to pro-
duce an engine with a compact de-
sign, which gives many advantages,
such as low running costs in relation
to high output.
