The S3L2 comes from Mitsubishi. Production: 2012-2025. The fuel is 7-15 ppm Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel. The rated output is 14 kW. The engine is naturally aspirated. The engine meets emissions stage Tier 4 (Final or Phase In). Fuel reaches the combustion chamber through indirect injection. It is a four-stroke diesel engine. The cylinders are arranged in line. Rated output across the Mitsubishi range ranges from 11 to 2,150 kW; the S3L2 sits at the bottom of that range with 14 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the L3E below it with 11 kW and the L3E3 above it with 15 kW. 1264 Mitsubishi models across 48 series are on record.

Mitsubishi – further nonroad diesel engines: the collective page for the L and S series outside the named models, two- to sixteen-cylinder units from 11 to 2,150 kW, model years 2012 to 2026

Mitsubishi builds industrial diesel engines in Japan in the L and S series for construction machinery, generator sets and marine applications. This page gathers 32 variants that the register could not assign to any named main series, from the small L2E and L3E engines through the S3 and S4 series to the large V12 and V16 S12R-PTAW and S16R-PTAW engines.

The register lists 32 variants here rated from 11 to 2,150 kW at 1,750 to 3,600 rpm, two- to sixteen-cylinder engines (27 inline, 5 V-configuration) with a bore of 76 to 170 mm and a stroke of 70 to 180 mm. Maximum torque ranges from 30 to 9,284 Nm at 1,350 to 2,700 rpm, model years from 2012 to 2024 (final model year up to 2026). The 8–19 kW, 19–37 kW and 37–56 kW power categories are equally represented with 8 variants each, followed by 560–2,237 kW with 6; among emission tiers, Tier 4 (Final or Phase-in) leads narrowly with 13 variants ahead of Interim Tier 4 with 12.

The engine range thus spans small construction machinery units in the low double-digit kW range as well as standby generator sets in the megawatt range; the near-even split across the three lower power categories points to a broadly diversified line-up without one dominant focus.

When buying used, small naturally aspirated engines call for a check of cold-start behaviour and glow plugs, while the large turbocharged V-configuration engines additionally need boost pressure and turbocharger condition checked; oil consumption also matters, and, for engines with model years from 2012 onward, the running hours accumulated so far. Spare parts run through the Mitsubishi dealer network.

What to check before buying

  • Match the data plate against the order: frame size, mounting and rating have to agree.
  • For used units, ask about winding condition and bearing play.
  • Ask about parts availability for this series — the running costs hang on it.
