Compatible Marine Engines

This solenoid clutch assembly is typically found on Volvo Penta marine diesel engines with supercharger/compressor setups, including:

KAD Series: KAD32P-A, KAD42, KAD42P-A, KAD43P-A, KAD44P, KAD300-A
KAMD Series: KAMD42, KAMD43P, KAMD44P, KAMD300-A
D4 Series: D4-260 engine variants

it fits Volvo Penta sterndrive applications, provided the boat uses one of the supercharged (KAD or D4 series) marine diesel engines paired with a drive unit.

How It Works in Sterndrive Applications

Supercharger Engagement: The solenoid clutch is mounted directly on the engine\'s mechanical supercharger (kompressor). It engages at lower RPMs to deliver low-end torque for hole-shot performance and getting heavy sterndrive boats up on plane.
Sterndrive Compatibility: It is commonly found on KAD-series engines (e.g., KAD32, KAD42, KAD43, KAD44, KAD300) paired with DP (Duoprop) sterndrives (such as the DP-C, DP-D, DP-E, and DP-G), as well as D4-260 sterndrive setups (DPR/DPH).
