Large Engines For power plants & ship drives
Battery-powered drives, alternative fuels, hybrid systems, and fuel cells - large stationary engines and ship drives are rising to the challenges of the transition to alternative energy. As a system supplier and service partner, HYDAC supports engine manufacturers, system operators, and ship owners worldwide.
Your certified partner for large-engine applications with worldwide know-how
High-speed engines
High-speed engines are used as gensets in CHP plants, in ships, and often in standard containers. As a development partner, HYDAC is on hand to help you and can offer all-inclusive diesel conditioning: from dewatering the day tank to cleaning the fuel in filters located at the engine.
Medium-speed engines
As they can be started up quickly and frequently, medium-speed engines are used in decentralized power plants. The distinctive feature of these engines is their provision of a control reserve. Their high efficiency and low emissions also support the transition to alternative energy. Work with HYDAC to optimize your fuel and lubrication oil systems for efficient and sustainable operation.
Low-speed engines
Low-speed engines provide the energy needed to power large transport ships. For these engines that work according to the 2-stroke principle, fluid conditioning is a key focus. HYDAC takes care of efficient cleaning and dewatering of your operating fluids for reliable and environmentally friendly use under extreme conditions. We can help you to save investment costs and service costs.
Sustainability & standardization
Never lose sight of efficient and safe operation of your large engine—we work with you to optimize your system and find the custom solution for you. Use the potential of standardization: retrofitting with optimized components and systems can help you to achieve long-term savings in lubrication oil conditioning and fuel treatment.

HYDAC automatic filter module
Whether it’s continuous flushing or intermittent: our automatic filters clean your fluids efficiently. Benefit from our solutions for all kinds of requirements for the cleanliness class of your fluids. Together we can optimise your engine operation sustainably.
Functional safety
A large engine in decentralized power plants or as a prime mover for ships needs to meet very strict safety requirements. HYDAC is your point of contact for the successful implementation of all statutory safety regulations. Our product solutions focus on SIL-enabled components, SOLAS and IMO requirements, and classification regulations, for example.
Functional safety for large engines: our product solutions
HYDAC shut-off device for duplex gas filters
For duplex gas filters, we use double block & bleed technology to clean toxic fuel gases. This makes it possible to perform maintenance work during operation without jeopardizing human health or machine condition—100% availability combined with maximum safety.
HYDAC lubrication oil conditioning
Sustainable conditioning of your lubrication oil thanks to the tried-and-tested Sludge Treatment Unit in conjunction with our automatic filters. Increase both the safety and the availability of your engine and benefit from the time-efficient and cost-efficient HYDAC solution without separators.
HYDAC hydraulic oil cleaning
Your 2-stroke engine hydraulic components are in safe hands with us: our automatic filters ensure that the lubrication oil used meets the strictest cleanliness requirements—to protect your hydraulic systems and guarantee sustainable engine operation.
Balance of Plant
Recognizing when action is needed early on calls for coordinated sensors and systems to monitor the condition of your large engines. This enables you to increase the availability and productivity of your system in the long term. For smooth operation of your engine with optimized service and maintenance intervals, HYDAC is your point of contact. With worldwide expertise in the monitoring, analysis, and conditioning of your fluids.
