Additional Notes
The MAN 48/60 is a medium-speed marine engine series available in multiple inline and V-cylinder configurations for marine propulsion and power-generation applications. Engine output, dimensions, weight, fuel specification, emission configuration and auxiliary equipment vary according to the specific engine version and installation. Filter requirements should therefore always be matched to the applicable engine configuration and installed systems. For technical identification and maintenance, OEM documentation, engine type, cylinder configuration and equipment specification should be verified before selecting replacement components
