AB Volvo Penta – other nonroad diesel engines: the collective page of the TAD ranges outside the named models, 105 to 784 kW from four- to six-cylinders, Tier 2 to Tier 4 Final
AB Volvo Penta is the Swedish stock company (AB stands for Aktiebolag) behind the Volvo Penta industrial-engine brand, a division of the Volvo Group headquartered in Gothenburg; it supplies diesel engines for construction machinery, cranes and generator sets under the TAD designation, short for Turbocharged Aftercooled Diesel. This page gathers the engines the register could not assign to a named range, from the four-cylinder TAD1170 and TAD1180 series to the six-cylinder TAD1350 and TAD1640 series; the four-digit number denotes the range, while the VE and GE suffixes, under the maker's logic, mark mobile and generator-set applications respectively.

The register lists here 69 versions with 105 to 784 kW rated output at 1,500 to 2,300 rpm, from four- to six-cylinders with 110 to 149 mm bore and 135 to 165 mm stroke, all with direct injection. Maximum torque ranges from 710 to 4,202 Nm at 1,200 to 1,800 rpm. Among the emission stages Tier 4 (Final or Phase-in) leads with 41 ahead of Tier 3 with 15 and Tier 2 with 12 versions; the 130 to 560 kW power category is the largest with 36 versions.
Volvo Penta industrial engines drive excavators, wheel loaders, cranes and generator sets for numerous construction-machinery makers who turn to outside engines from the Volvo group rather than developing their own large units; in the industrial-engine segment the brand competes chiefly with Cummins, Deutz and Scania Engines.
On a used purchase, operating hours and service history count, the condition of the turbocharger (waste-gate design on the majority, variable-geometry versions on some of the larger engines), the common-rail injection and its injectors, the cooling system and charge-air cooler, and on Tier 4 Final versions the exhaust aftertreatment; spare parts run through the Volvo Penta dealer network.
