MAN Energy Solutions' service brand, MAN PrimeServ, and Makita Corporation have signed a three-year agreement to intensify their cooperation.
The common goal of the partnership aims to offer customers worldwide the best possible service within SCR-HP (Selective Catalytic Reducation-High Pressure) systems from MAN Energy Solutions on two-stroke engines license-built by Makita Corporation.
IMO Tier III emission
MAN’s SCR-HP is used on MAN B&W two-stroke engines to meet IMO Tier III emission levels.
More and more vessels are entering service with MAN Energy Solutions’ SCR-HP systems
The smallest and most compact of its kind, it has very low operating costs and is particularly fuel-efficient as the existing exhaust-gas temperature is sufficient and no additional burner is required.
Yu Makita, President of Makita Corporation, said: "We are pleased to take the next step in our cooperation with MAN Energy Solutions and intensify our collaboration with MAN PrimeServ for the benefit of our customers.”
