Fuel-ecient.
Emissions-compliant.
Compact power.
Narrow footprint.
Easy to maintain.
GE’s new L250 inline engine oers a streamlined
design that is fuel-ecient and delivers continu-
ous power from 1498 to 2330 kw. The L250 is
specically engineered for marine applications
with its accessories mounted on the engine for
maintenance ease.
The L250 oers an average 9% fuel savings when
compared to the V228 engine. The L250 is marine-
class compliant, meeting U.S. EPA Tier 2 emissions
requirements and is upgradeable to Tier 3 require-
ments — a proactive approach to fuel savings and
emissions reduction that is natural to GE.
The engine, available in 6- and
8-cylinder models, also oers
ease of re-power as its narrow
inline footprint takes in mind
marine engine room con-
straints where space
is at a premium. The
narrower frame uses
a similar footprint as
competitive engines for
minimum design change.
GE designed the L250 engine based on the suc-
cessful V250 engine platform using the Six Sigma
Quality design process. Together, with exible in-
stallation and maintenance options, proven parts
performance and support from GE’s worldwide
distribution network, the L250 oers customers
reliability and limited downtime.
