Fact Sheet D9A340, EM-EC01


The D9A340 is a straight, six-cylinder, 9.4 litre 340 hp
metric diesel engine with a turbo compressor and intercooler.
The engine meets EU regulations regarding exhaust and
noise emissions according to Euro 3.

The D9340 is based on the same fundamental concept as


the larger D12D engine and has an overhead camshaft, four
valves per cylinder, unit injectors and fitted cylinder head.
The design has a very low weight.
The engine functions are controlled completely
electronically by Volvo’s EMS (Engine Management Sys-
tem), which contributes to low fuel consumption and low
exhaust emissions. The system also provides advanced
capabilities for diagnostics and troubleshooting.
The highly efficient combustion is achieved by the high
charge pressure from the turbo compressor combined with
precision-controlled injection.
The transmission is on the flywheel side of the engine,
giving the engine a compact installation and allowing a rear
power take-off to be installed.
The D9A340 generates high torque at low engine speeds,
resulting in very good lugging capability. This, combined
with a wide engine speed range, gives the engine very good
drivability. The D9A340 is characterised by the following
features:
• Electronic engine management (EMS) with precise fuel
injection results in low fuel consumption and low emis-
sion values.
• Electronically controlled fuel injection with centrally
located vertical unit injectors.
• Electronic oil level transmitters which provide readings
on the driver information display.
• Maximum torque in a wide range of engine speeds prov-
ides good driving characteristics and low fuel
consumption.
• High engine braking power with VEB*. Power, kW
• Engine rear power take-off for directly running a
