- MAN Diesel & Turbo, now MAN Energy Solutions, has a long history in engine manufacturing, developing the world's first diesel engine between 1893 and 1897. The L32/40 engine series is a well-established design, with its basic architecture also forming the foundation for later engines like the 32/44CR, which was launched in 2006.
- The L32/40 is positioned as a high-power GenSet within MAN Energy Solutions' auxiliary engine range, offering outputs from 3,000 to 4,500 kW. It sits above models like the L21/31 (1,000-1,980 kW) and L27/38 (1,500-3,150 kW) in terms of power output.
- The L32/40 is chosen for its optimal combination of capital cost, performance, and reliability, particularly its ability to run on inexpensive heavy fuel oil (HFO) from standby to full load. Its twin camshafts provide flexibility for balancing output/fuel ratio and emissions, and it is designed for long, trouble-free operation.
