Hailin Power – other nonroad diesel engines: the collective page of EPA-certified single-cylinder HL178FA and HL186FV outside the named ranges, 4 to 6 kW, Interim Tier 4, 2011/2012 model years
Hailin Power certifies small air-cooled single-cylinder diesel engines with the US EPA for generator sets and work equipment. This page gathers the HL178FA and HL186FV versions that the register could not assign to a named range. The type numbers 178 and 186 match the cylinder bores of 78 and 86 mm listed in the register, a numbering scheme common across the Chinese small-diesel industry.

The register lists here 2 versions from the 2011 and 2012 model years, with 4 to 6 kW rated output at a constant 3,600 rpm, from single-cylinders with 78 to 86 mm bore and 64 to 75 mm stroke – the stroke stays shorter than the bore, a short-stroke design. Both run direct injection and low-sulphur diesel (300 to 500 ppm) and are certified to the Interim Tier 4 emission stage, in the EPA power category below 8 kW. Maximum torque ranges from 10.6 to 16.7 Nm, again at 3,600 rpm.
Engines of this type mainly drive portable generator sets, water pumps and small construction equipment, where low weight and simple maintenance matter more than high output per litre. The 178F/186F format is among the most widely built small-diesel platforms worldwide.
When buying used, what counts on these air-cooled single-cylinders is the condition of the cooling fins and fan wheel, the tightness of the injection pump, and the action of the decompression lever where fitted; corrosion on the fuel tank and frame is common on generator sets run outdoors. Spare parts for this widely used format are available through the general trade for Chinese small diesel engines.
