The Xinchai A498BT7 is a machine built by Xinchai. Production: 2011. The fuel is 300-500 ppm Low Sulfur Diesel. The rated output is 30 kW. The engine is naturally aspirated. The engine meets emissions stage Interim Tier 4. Fuel reaches the combustion chamber through direct injection. It is a four-stroke diesel engine. The cylinders are arranged in line. Rated output across the Xinchai range ranges from 27 to 36 kW; the A498BT7 sits in the lower part of that range with 30 kW. Its immediate neighbours are the A498BZD2 below it with 27 kW and the A498BT6 above it with 31 kW. 8 Xinchai models are on record.

Xinchai – other nonroad diesel engines: continued certifications of the A498 range, four-cylinder with 27 to 36 kW, model years 2011 and 2012

Xinchai builds small and mid-size diesel engines for agricultural machinery, generators and light construction equipment. This page gathers versions of the A498 range the register could not assign to a named model, with certifications from model years 2011 and 2012. The recorded engine family codes appear in pairs, for example CZHXL3.17XCD together with BZHXL3.17XCD – a sign that the same technical version was recertified unchanged across two consecutive model years.

The register lists here 8 versions with 27 to 36 kW rated output at 1,800 to 2,400 rpm, all inline four-cylinder engines with 98 mm bore and 105 mm stroke and direct injection. The fuel entered is low-sulphur diesel (300 to 500 ppm), the emission stage is consistently Interim Tier 4, the power category is 19 up to under 37 kW. Maximum torque runs from 143 to 191 Nm at 1,680 to 1,800 rpm.

Engines of this small power class drive compact generators, small farm machines and entry-level light construction equipment; the continuation of the same certification across two model years shows how long small-displacement diesel engines of this class can stay in the line-up without technical changes.

On a used purchase, the condition of the injection pump and glow-plug system, cold-start behaviour, and the tightness of crankshaft seals and valve cover all matter. Since these are early model years, it is also worth checking the operating hours already accumulated; spares run through the relevant importer.

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.
