HD Hyundai Infracore extends DX Electronic Generator Engine Series with new DX15 Model

HD Hyundai Infracore, the company behind the DEVELON brand, has announced the official launch of its new DX15 generator engine, delivering powerful performance and outstanding efficiency. The newly unveiled DX15 is the fifth model in the company’s latest electronic generator engine line-up, the DX Series.

Built on a 15.1-litre V-type 8-cylinder configuration, the DX15 delivers an impressive 457–662 kWm of output and meets EPA Tier 2 and Tier 3 emission regulations, making it suitable for a wide range of global markets. Compared to mechanical engines of the same class, output has increased by 16%. The engine features high-efficiency combustion technology and an electronically controlled fuel injection system, further enhancing performance.

Despite its compact design, the DX15 delivers high power density and exceptional performance. Electronic control ensures improved speed stability and reliability, while its robust design enables consistent output even under extended operation.

The engine is also compatible with eco-friendly fuels such as HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) and GTL (Gas-to-Liquid), and can operate for up to 500 hours without oil refills, reducing maintenance intervals and costs.

“The official launch of the DX15 completes our full line-up up to 1 MW of electronic generator engines,” said Hyungtaek Lim, Executive Vice President and Head of Engine Sales at HD Hyundai Infracore’s Engine division. “With its powerful performance, eco-friendly technology and proven durability, the DX15 is set to earn customer trust and satisfaction across the global generator market and diverse application sites. We will continue to expand our line-up into the 1 MW+ large-scale engine segment, leading the global generator engine market.”

Earlier in March, HD Hyundai Infracore successfully launched the marine version of the DX15, based on the same platform. This engine delivers 551–870 HP and complies with IMO Tier 2, Tier 3 and EPA Tier 3 emission regulations, further proving the company’s technological competitiveness in the marine market.
