Kirloskar engines: Prime movers to the Indian nation.
Kirloskar Oil Engines Limited founded in 1946 and popularly known as KOEL is India’s leading manufacturer of the finest and widest Low Operating Cost:
range of diesel engines - from 3 hp to 800 hp, and from 2400 hp to 8000 hp. The engines are branded as ‘Kirloskar’. The Kirloskar engines Low specific fuel consumption, low lube oil consumption and extended lube oil
are manufactured in both air-cooled and water-cooled versions. The main engine manufacturing plant is at Pune, and other manufacturing change period of 400 hrs (with recommended lube oil grade) reduces the
locations are Nashik, Ahmednagar, Rajkot, Indore and Kolhapur. In the year ending March 31, 2001, KOEL manufactured 187,000 engines. operating cost. Lube oil consumption is less than 0.6 % of fuel consumption,
Kirloskar engines are used as prime movers in Industrial, Agriculture, Power Generation as well as Marine Application. which is very low in its class and hence, does not call for frequent top-ups.
The engine manufacturing facilities are continually upgraded and improved to ensure the requisite quality at competitive cost. Piston cooling nozzles:
Critical components like crankcases, crankshafts, camshafts, gear casing, cylinder heads and connecting rods are manufactured in-house. Engines are provided with Piston Cooling Nozzles [Jets spraying lube oil
