Purpose-built for demanding light-industrial assemblies and multi-unit residential grids, the Baudouin 63kW Diesel Engine 4M10G70/5 introduces a larger displacement platform to your generator lineup. Stepping up to a robust 4.1L inline four-cylinder architecture, this turbocharged G-Drive workhorse delivers a substantial increase in torque reservation. It is perfectly scaled to act as the primary power source for 63kVA prime to 69kVA standby gensets, ensuring excellent transient recovery times when heavy structural block loads hit the circuit.

Operating comfortably at 1500 RPM, this mid-displacement diesel block is distinguished by its exceptional cold-starting capabilities, firing instantly down to minus 15°C without auxiliary intervention. It features an expanded oil sum capacity, a heavy-duty 12V starting layout with an 80A charging alternator, and an inline configuration built to handle rigorous regional duty cycles.

LiFeTIDE bridges the gap for local equipment builders by pairing this premium French-engineered platform with direct technical support, rich warehouse inventories, and reliable pan-African distribution networks.

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Baudouin 63kW Diesel Engine

The Baudouin 4M10G70/5 represents a significant step up in structural design, utilising a 4.087-litre vertical inline configuration with an expansive 105mm x 118mm bore and stroke profile. Operating on a 17.5:1 compression ratio, the rigid cast-iron engine block is heavily ribbed to suppress physical structural deflection under heavy loading conditions. The cross-flow overhead architecture accommodates a highly efficient intake system that maximises volumetric efficiency while preventing the concentrated thermal hotspots common in smaller, overworked engine designs.

Industrial Power Architecture & Reliability

This robust 4.1L block leverages premium metallurgy and tier-one internal balancing components to ensure continuous service availability during prolonged outages. By shifting to a larger displacement matrix, the engine reduces stress on internal moving components, extending mean time between overhauls (MTBO). The simplified overall layout minimises external pipework, lowering maintenance friction for local technicians and safeguarding operation in unventilated or high-dust environments.

Baudouin 63kWm Engine Technical Features

  • Deep-Sump Lubrication Architecture: Features a high-capacity system holding up to 14 Litres of oil, drastically extending service intervals and offering superior internal cooling properties under full thermal load.

  • Unmatched Cold-Start Velocity: Advanced cylinder geometry allows immediate, unassisted starting down to minus 15°C, expanding down to minus 25°C with a water jacket heater for absolute operational readiness in extreme winter climates.

  • High-Output Charging System: Equipped with a standard 3.8 kW starter motor and an upgraded 80 Amp battery-charging alternator, ensuring rapid voltage recovery for automated standby panels.

  • Rigid Class G3 Governing: Controlled via an ultra-precise electronic governor meeting ISO 8528-5 Class G3 standards, restricting steady-state frequency variations to 0.5% or less for sensitive electronic networks.

  • Tropicalized Cooling Capacity: Integrated with a heavy-duty mechanical radiator and a belt-driven pusher fan absorbing 1.5 kW, rated to maintain optimal heat dissipation up to 50°C ambient temperatures.
