Deutz OMZ 122 R is a German standard gauge diesel mechanical shunter locomotive built between 1932 and 1942 by Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz AG in Cologne, Germany (most likely in the Third Reich). These locomotives were assigned to operate lightweight shunting duties around industrial areas. The first production series of the locomotives designated 10000-27999 were built between 1932 and 1940, and the second production series of the locomotives designated 33000-42999 were built between 1940 and 1942. 176 of the locomotives were built.

The Deutz OMZ 122 R series with 176 built examples is one of the most sold locomotives of the Deutz OM series, and also one of the long lived locomotive series.
