Ricardo marine engines and generators (China)

Ricardo Marine Diesel Engine

The Chinese company Ricardo is one of the largest independent engine developers, serving the needs of dozens of European and global manufacturers of automotive, agricultural and freight equipment, as well as professional-grade autonomous power supply systems.

Ricardo diesel engines, designed specifically for use as prime movers in power plants, are in demand among the world's leading manufacturers of power generation equipment thanks to their reliability and durability. Every year the company invests a significant share of its profits in developing its own engineering and design division, which allows it to continuously improve and develop its production technologies and bring to market new engine models whose technical and operating characteristics are the best in their class. That is why some Ricardo engine models are rightly regarded as a benchmark of reliability, operating for many years in extreme conditions without serious breakdowns or major overhauls.

Today the Ricardo diesel engine line includes dozens of products in a power range from 10 kW to several hundred kW, allowing the company to easily meet the requirements of end-equipment manufacturers. The engines of the English brand are considered the most advanced in the industry and often significantly surpass competitors' products in terms of technical equipment. Ricardo power units are fitted with proprietary electronic control systems that protect the engine across all key parameters, guaranteeing not only a long service life but also low fuel consumption and compliance with the strictest environmental standards currently in force. In addition, power plants built on these engines are characterized by high-quality power output, high capacity and the fastest possible frequency recovery during load acceptance/rejection cycles.

Overall, any modern diesel generator set built on Ricardo engines fully meets European standards of reliability and durability, allowing the power generation equipment to operate trouble-free for many years in the most demanding duty cycles and under prolonged maximum load. That is why generators with engines of this English brand can be confidently recommended for installation as prime or standby autonomous power supply systems for any facility, even those with the most stringent requirements for the quality and reliability of external power, such as banks, airports, medical institutions, etc.
