FLEXIBLE ENGINE MOUNTS

The torque of an engine is one of the deciding factors for determination of the load applied to the engine mounts. When more
powerful engines are installed, it is important to use the following formula to define the load per support in kg (4 supporting
points).

engine weight in kg + kW x 487 x reduction of gearbox = max. load per support in kg
number of supports engine revs/min. x centre to centre spacing
in metres of the longitudinal engine bearers

Type K25V and K35V

For small engines and generator sets with 1 or 2 cylinders
These flexible mounts contain a special rubber compound with excellent vibration damping properties. They are suitable for marine
engines in the power range between 4 and 15 kW (6-20 hp).

Type K40A
For 3-cylinder marine diesel engines
Type K40 has a relatively soft, rubber compound which fulfills
the requirements of light-weight vessels with a modern
3-cylinder marine diesel engine. The rubber elements create
optimum vibration dampening. Type KSTEUN40 features
internal buffers which limit the engine movements when
started or stopped. It is also secured against overload and
shearing off.
KSTEUN40A
Type K
For smaller engines up to ± 60 kW (80 hp)
This type is suitable for smaller engines up to approximately 60 kW (80 hp).
