Engine weight
The weights of the engines (without gearbox) are given in the following table:
Engine weight (dry, without gearbox) in kg
V8−1200 1875
V12−1800 2365
The weights are based on the engine without lube oil and coolant. To determine the weight of the engine
ready for operation, the weight of the lube oil and coolant must be added.

V8−1200 62 litres 56 kg 85 litres 90 kg
V12−1800 92 litres 83 kg 113 litres 120 kg
Maximum permitted angle of inclination for engine
If the engine is to be installed at an inclination on its longitudinal axis, the maximum permitted angle of
inclination must not be exceeded. The max. permitted angle of inclination is the largest angle that can be
expected when the ship is underway, i.e. installation inclination plus max. trim angle of the ship.

An angle β of 5_ as compared to the side opposite the flywheel may only occur during engine
operation. The installation angle as compared to the side opposite the flywheel is 0_
