Clean
We call it our "semi open deck construction", and it is a feature of all
our direct injection TNE engines. When combined without super-thin full
metal head gasket and high top piston ring design, it means that dead
spaces and cool air pockets (places the flame front finds hard to reach,
and which are a major source of unburned exhaust gases) are reduced.
We've also worked on our water galleries to further cool any hot spots
in the piston area of the block and improved the swirl characteristics
in and around our combustion chamber. When these are teamed with the
extremely close matching of injection pumps and nozzles, the resulting
exhaust gas is impressively clean.
Silent
The TNE engines have significantly lower noise levels, especially
mechanical noises. Timing gears and injector drive gears are two areas
which have received intense design effort. Helical profile gears are
quieter, and the use of stiffer shaft material has reduced flex allowing
finer bearing tolerances. No crankshaft bearing will be a perfect fit on
a shaft if the dimensions of the bearing's back are incorrect. On
Yanmar's TNE line, each block and bearing cap is measured, and the
closest fit bearing set is selected from available stock. This adds
further to accuracy and reduces noise. Flywheel noises, usually created
by air turbulence, are sealed inside the flywheel housing by a special
flange (4TNE94 and 4TNE98).
Compact and powerful
The TNE series marks a whole new generation of Yanmar industrial diesel
engines. They are an ideal choice for many areas of compact engine use.
The TNE engines most notable features are: high thermal and efficiency
and improved mountability. |

Durability and
Reliability
The TNE engines now proudly take up the running as Yanmar's premium
small industrial diesel. They offer even more enhanced durability due to
better block cooling, due to stiffer crank and pistons, also due to
finer journal and other tolerances.
Asbestos Free
Yanmar uses no asbestos products in its TNE engines, manufacturers in a
freon-free plant, washes its parts with liquids that are not major
threats to the environment - in short Yanmar believes that being a good
neighbour on planet earth goes deeper than just exhaust gas regulations.
Convenient "One-Side" Maintenance
All parts that require regular checking and replacement are conveniently
grouped on the same side of the engine. They are positioned for easy
maintenance and are a significant advantage, especially when engines are
to be installed in locations where space and access is at a premium.
Mountability and Flexibility
TNE series engines are suitable for generator use, for general
industrial machinery, agriculture, materials handling, construction,
mowing, pumping etc. These units are achieving wide acceptance by
distributors, dealers and OEM's for their superior mountability when
coupled with various machinery. |
