Volvo Penta TAMD72P-A EDC 430HP Marine Diesel Engine

On Sale Volvo Penta TAMD72P-A EDC 430HP Marine Diesel Engine Only US$ 6.900.00. This variant was particularly popular on European flybridge motor yachts and planing boats in the 1990s. This particular “P” variant introduced Electronic Diesel Control (EDC), replacing the traditional mechanical governor with an electromagnetic actuator to lower emissions and optimize fuel delivery.

• Engine Configuration: Inline 6-cylinder, 4-stroke diesel
• Aspiration: Turbocharged and aftercooled (TAMD)
• Crankshaft Power Output: 430 HP (316 kW) at the flywheel
• Rated Engine Speed: 2600 RPM
• Displacement: 6.73 Liters (6,730 cc / 411 cu in)
• Bore & Stroke: 104.77 mm × 130.0 mm
• Compression Ratio: 14.1:1
• Injection System: Direct injection with an electronically controlled injection pump (EDC) 

• Engine Oil Capacity: Approximately 30 Liters (max capacity depends on the hull’s engine installation angle).
• Recommended Oil Type: Volvo Penta VDS 4.5 or high-quality equivalent high-performance diesel marine oil.
• Cooling System Type: Fresh-water cooled via a heat exchanger and raw-water pump.
• Coolant Requirement: Standard Volvo Penta Green Coolant. Never mix it with newer VCS Yellow coolant, or it will gel and cause cooling system failures. 

• Electronic Diesel Control (EDC): Features a central engine control unit (ECU) that translates electronic throttle positions into precise fuel adjustments, smoothing out acceleration and reducing soot.
• Integrated Smoke Limiter: Unlike older mechanical variants that used an external pneumatic smoke limiter, the TAMD72P-A handles smoke limitation digitally through its EDC system software map. 
• Saltwater Defense: Built with corrosion-resistant component coatings and heavy-duty casting to tolerate demanding marine bilges
