Source notes

Manufacturer-confirmed land and marine generating-station engine.

Land station ICXN continuous engine output at 1500/1800 rpm: 255/303 kW.

Marine station MCXN output at 1500/1800 rpm: 249/296 kW.

These duty codes are preserved rather than relabelled ISO PRP/ESP; frequency-specific prime/standby fields are intentionally unset.

Power_kw represents land ICXN at 1500 rpm.

Land emergency-station IXN (1000 h/year) output: 281/333 kW at 1500/1800 rpm.

Chinese manufacturer table specifies bore/stroke 128/140 mm and compression ratio 15:1; English overview instead says 120/140 mm.

Bore discrepancy remains pending the new catalogue; displacement follows the model-specific Chinese table.

Physical dimensions withheld pending confirmation.

Source: hnd.com.cn · source (reviewed 2026-10-26).

Status active means currently listed on the manufacturer or regional supplier website; factory production availability is not independently confirmed.

Follow-up verification: Explicit industrial prime/standby ratings at 1500/1800 rpm added.

Existing headline ICXN output is retained as a distinct source/duty value; V8/V12 catalogue prime figures differ from the website ICXN values.

Catalogue also supports 128 mm bore, while the English website says 120 mm; that source discrepancy remains flagged.
