Did you know

The MAN B&W ME-B engine series was introduced in mid-2006 with the S35ME-B and S40ME-B designs, expanding in early 2007 with the S50ME-B. This series builds upon the established MC-C and ME-C engine ranges.
The S80ME-B is a 'super long stroke' electronically controlled engine, where 'B' signifies a mechanical/electronic hybrid control system with electronic fuel injection and camshaft-operated exhaust valves. This positions it as a less compact design compared to the 'C' type engines, which feature fully electronic control of both fuel injection and exhaust valves.
The S80ME-B offers optimal engine performance with a focus on being powerful, economic, and weight-saving. Its design allows for lower propeller speeds, improved fuel economy, and reduced lifecycle costs due to electronically controlled fuel injection.

Model	Bore × Stroke (mm)	Power/Cyl (kW)	RPM (L1)
S80ME-B	800 × 3200	3880 (approx.)	76 (approx.)
S80ME-C9	800 × 3450	4510	78
