Description – MWM Gas Engine TCG 2016

Consumes up to 15 Percent Less Gas than Comparable Gensets Thanks to Its Best-of-Class Efficiency

  • Special piston variants with different compression for biogas and natural gas operation
  • Optimized gas exchange and camshaft, spark plugs with integrated pre-combustion chamber
  • Even load balancing over the individual cylinders enables higher load level and maximum utilization of the engine reserves in terms of output and efficiency
  • New closed crankcase ventilation optimizes combustion and increases efficiency by utilizing the blow-by gas
  • Consistent downsizing of dead spaces improves complete combustion of the gas mixture, resulting in reduced fuel consumption and HC- and CO-emissions and higher efficiency

Long Service Intervals

  • Longest time interval until major overhaul compared to competitors
  • Use of Xchange components enables time savings of up to 75 percent during the major overhaul, resulting in reduced costs
  • Turbocharger for TCG 2016C series, depending on application with water-cooled bearing housing, thus reducing maintenance costs for turbocharger
  • No contamination of the turbocharger compressor thanks to improved separation of gas and liquid phase, resulting in long maintenance intervals

Very Low Lubricant Consumption

  • With its lubricant consumption of only 0.1 – 0.2 g/kWh, TCG 2016C sets competitive standards
  • Lubricant savings of up to 50 percent compared to competitors

Lower Investment Costs – MWM Gas Engine TCG 2016

Niedrige Installationskosten dank kleiner Abmessungen

Low Installation Costs Thanks to Smaller Dimensions

  • Compact genset design saves investment costs through smaller engine space and fewer plant peripherals
  • Setup space up to 50 percent smaller than for comparable gensets

High Flexibility – MWM Gas Engine TCG 2016

TEM Control Enables Use of Diverse Gas Types

  • Same electrical output with natural gas and biogas
  • Further information on the TEM control
