Cummins lance un nouveau groupe électrogène marin protégé contre l’allumage

Cummins Inc. (NYSE : CMI) a dévoilé son nouveau groupe électrogène marin Onan de 7,5 kilowatts (kW) protégé contre l’allumage lors du 2019 Miami International Boat Show. Le groupe électrogène marin MDKBJ Onan est conforme aux exigences 33 CFR183 de la Garde côtière américaine et est certifié conforme aux normes d’émission Tier 3 de l’Agence américaine de protection de l’environnement (EPA).

“There is an increasing need for auxiliary power on small to mid-sized recreational boats and our new 7.5kW Onan ignition-protected genset provides safe, reliable power whether you are out for a cruise with your family or spending the day fishing offshore,” explained Scott Malindzak, Global Marine Segment Director for Cummins.

The MDKBJ ignition protected diesel genset is designed to supply auxiliary power to a vessel with gasoline propulsion engines. Onan gensets pairs dependable power generation with the quietest operation in the maritime environment. Utilizing an advanced design and development processes, Onan marine generators use sound shields and an optimized mounting system which lowers sound and vibration. 

The Back Cove 34O is the first boat to pair the MDKBJ with an outboard propulsion system.

"Like other Back Cove models, the 34O's systems are built to be robust, capable, and reliable. The 34O needed a power generation system appropriate for serious cruising, but which also included the ignition protection features required for safety and peace of mind aboard a gasoline outboard-powered boat," explained Kevin Burns, VP Design and Product Development for Back Cove. "Onan has for many years been Back Cove's supplier of choice for quiet and reliable onboard power generation, and the new Ingress Protected (IP) rated generators ensure we will be able to continue to offer Onan systems to our owners on our new outboard cruising models like the 34O."
