瓦锡兰34DF双燃料发动机，瓦锡兰，海洋产业的领先解决方案和服务提供商，已获得来自美国环境保护署（EPA）认证，符合排放标准。它将使瓦锡兰船用发动机技术，提供运营商和业主选择使用柴油或天然气作为燃料进入美国市场。获得该认证于2013年17月1日。Itron爱创减压阀 B42R调压器，B42调压器，B42R天然气减压阀

  安德烈Bochicchio，总监，产品管理与工程，产品中心4冲程力成介绍，瓦锡兰瓦锡兰34DF“第一双燃料发动机的履行环保局的要求，这是一个非常重要的法定认可的瓦锡兰双燃料技术。”

  通过这符合里程碑，瓦锡兰预期范围双燃料发动机在美国市场的需求将进一步加大。首批发动机将装备哈维能源，近海供应船建造的哈维湾国际海洋。四姐妹船将在短期内提供相同的瓦锡兰发动机，从而进一步展示了作为船舶燃料及船舶所有者和经营者之间的日益普及液化天然气（LNG）的可行性。LNG燃料船舶提供令人信服的运营成本节约和显着环境效益。

  “经济和环境因素对航运业造成巨大冲击，瓦锡兰，我们坚信，灵活的燃料选择是一个积极的步骤，减轻这些挑战。我们的双燃料发动机技术，使环境立法方面的要求在必要的情况下，同时保持能够使用传统的柴油燃料，在不受限制的领域，说：“主任Giulio Tirelli的，瓦锡兰船舶动力，四冲程组合与应用。

  EPA认证适用于美国国旗的船只。瓦锡兰双燃料发动机的能力，不论是传统的海洋液体燃料或LNG船舶操作。燃料之间切换，可无缝无损耗的功率或速度。这样的的燃料灵活性使符合排放法规的控制区，同时也让运营商确定燃料成本和可用性的选项。

  Wärtsilä, the marine industry’s leading solutions and services provider, has obtained certification of emission standard compliance from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its Wärtsilä 34DF dual-fuel engines. It will enable Wärtsilä to enter the American market with marine engine technology that offers operators and owners the option of using either diesel or natural gas as fuel. The certification was obtained on 17 January 2013.

  Andrea Bochicchio, Director, Product Management & Engineering, Product Centre 4-stroke, Wärtsilä PowerTech describes the Wärtsilä 34DF as “the first dual-fuel engine fulfilling the EPA requirements and this is a very important statutory recognition of Wärtsilä dual-fuel technology.”

  With the passing of this compliance milestone, Wärtsilä anticipates that market demand in the USA for its range of dual-fuel engines will further increase. The first engines will equip the ‘Harvey Energy’, an offshore supply vessel built for Harvey Gulf International Marine. Four sister vessels will shortly be supplied with the same Wärtsilä engines, thus further demonstrating both the viability of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a marine fuel and its growing popularity among ship owners and operators. LNG fuelled vessels offer compelling operational cost savings and significant environmental benefits.

  “Economic and environmental factors are having a tremendous impact on the shipping industry, and at Wärtsilä we firmly believe that flexible fuel options are a positive step in alleviating these challenges. Our dual-fuel engine technology enables environmental legislation to be met where necessary, while maintaining the ability to use conventional diesel fuel in unrestricted areas,” says Giulio Tirelli, Director, Wärtsilä Ship Power, 4-stroke Portfolio & Applications.

  EPA certification applies to United States flagged vessels. The Wärtsilä dual-fuel engine capability enables ships to be operated on either conventional liquid marine fuels or LNG. The switch between fuels can be made seamlessly without loss of power or speed. Such fuel flexibility enables compliance with emission regulations in controlled areas, while giving operators the option of determining the fuel according to cost and availability.
