The MAN B&W L16/24 engine series was successfully launched during 1995 as a compact four-stroke generator set for marine applications and has gone on to become one of the most successful small-bore medium-speed diesel engines in the maritime industry, with more than 3,000 units sold by the mid 2010s. With a bore of 160 mm and a stroke of 240 mm, the L16/24 engines have a power output between 450 kW to 900 kW at speeds between 1,000 to 1,200 rpm. The L16/24 engines are the smallest engine in their power output class. The L16/24 engines are used as auxiliary engines on all sorts of small to medium sized modern commercial vessels such as containers, tankers, bulkers and cargo vessels. The L16/24 engines have several features that made it a success with vessel owners such as a compact bore-cooled engine block, a stiff crankshaft for smooth operation, a cross-flow cylinder head designed for optimised air/fuel mixing, HFO compatibility, an extremely compact build, fuel pumps designed with an integrated roller guide and low engine emissions. The L16/24 engine has also regularly been updated with new parts and designs, with the major one being the Mk 2 update around 2012.
