How many cats are in a Caterpillar 3208 cat?

Lots of experience with 3208 Cats. Three different boats. 45 Californian, 53 Defever POC, and now 40 Hatt MY. Some DD along the way with a 46 Bertram and 43 Hatt. As opposed to most, greatly prefer the Cats.

How much power does a Caterpillar marine engine have?

Marine Engine. 3208. 157-324 bkW/210-435 bhp. 2800 rpm Power produced at the flywheel will be within standard tolerances up to 50° C (122° F) combustion air temperature measured at the air cleaner inlet, and fuel temperature up to 52° C (125° F) measured at the fuel filter base. Power rated in accordance with NMMA procedure as crankshaft power.

Can a bad cat make an engine less efficient?

A bad cat will make an engine less efficient due to the increased backpressure and buildup of contaminants in the exhaust. While federal law prohibits removing a functioning converter, you can replace a defective one with a high-flow performance converter that is less restrictive to exhaust flow.

How much fuel does a cat turbo engine use?

Fuel (tankered 1100 gal with the Defever) could make a difference with the speed, but not the fuel consumption. 2200 rpm power usually ran about 22-23 gal/hr. This was the lowest rpm setting to keep on plain. good luck. Thank you all very much for the help. I have no personal knowledge of cat turbo engine….just great reports from natural owners.

What should the temperature be in a Caterpillar engine?

Ratingsare based on SAE J1228/ISO8665 standard conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in Hg), 25° C (77° F), and 30% relative humidity. These ratings also apply at ISO3046/1, DIN6271/3, and BS5514 conditions of 100 kPa (29.61 in Hg), 27° C (81° F), and 60% relative humidity.
