Meet EPA/EURO standards today

The United States Environmental Protection Agency will implement diesel engine gaseous emissions Tier 3 standards starting with engines built after January 1, 2005. Similar exhaust emissions standards for Stage IIIa will be implemented within the EEC countries in 2006. Stationary, railway, and underground mining engines are exempt. EPA has defined stationary as an engine that does not move from a given location for one year or more. The regulation covers engines on tracks, rubber tire vehicles, deck or propulsion, skids, or offshore portable platforms. Caterpillar offers diesel engines in three product lines: those certified to meet the new EPA, the current Tier 2 standards, and the standard non-certified.
ISO 9001 Certification

In 1992, Caterpillars Mossville Engine Center received ISO certification. Today, 23 Caterpillar departments or facilities have been ISO 9001 certified including our Large Engine Center in Lafayette, Indiana. This company-wide commitment to quality has translated into high customer acceptance in the diesel and gas engine markets worldwide.

Cat 3500 engines (3508, 3512, and 3516) are the best-selling power units of their size in the world. One reason is their design simplicity. We build them to be easy to install, maintain, and service. Service Efficiency Reduces Operating Costs Consider service access. Two inspection openings per cylinder make it easy to get at everything from the camshaft to the main bearings. Individual cylinder heads let you open up and work on a single cylinder. To minimize parts inventory and potential assembly errors, we build 3500 engines with many common parts. For example, intake and exhaust valves, valve seat inserts, and valve springs are all identical. Superior Fuel Economy Cat 3500 engines incorporate several proven fuelsaving design features such as four-stroke cycle design, unit fuel injectors and four valves per cylinder. Additional savings are provided by performance-matched turbochargers and chargeair cooling. At the factory, we set individual scroll-type unit injectors for consistent, precise fuel delivery to each cylinder. Fuel is injected at 1240 bar (18 000 psi) for superior atomization. And by producing injection pressure at the cylinder, high-pressure fuel lines are eliminated. In competitive testing, Cat 3500s are typically five to 15 percent more fuel efficient than other sameclass engines. In one test that pitted a 3512 against an identically rated competitive engine, the Cat engine burned 6.5 percent less fuel. After 5000 hours of operation, the 3512 would have saved 56 800 liters (15 000 gallons) of fuel. Savings at Repower Time The high efficiency of 3500s makes them a very attractive repowering alternative. This is especially true when you consider the cost of repairing and overhauling an old, inefficient engine. Count on 3500 engines to deliver higher production with less fuel consumption.

3500B engines feature mechanical enhancements and advanced electronic control systems that combine to offer significant improvements in fuel efficiency and emissions control, while increasing horsepower ratings and improving responsiveness. All ratings are optimized for fuel efficiency while meeting Tier 1/Stage I emissions. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls the 3500B engines by collecting operating condition information from engine sensors, analyzing that information, and constantly adjusting injection timing and duration to optimize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. This level of control is also responsible for the engines virtually smokeless operation even during startup and rapid acceleration. Larger camshafts provide increased injection pressure and shorter injection duration. New, electronically controlled unit injectors improve fuel atomization and injection timing pressure. A new deep-crater piston design helps increase turbulence in the combustion chamber for better air/fuel mixing. Reduced crevice volume minimizes wasted charge air. Cooler aftercooler water temperature and streamlined exhaust manifolds also contribute to engine efficiency. Electronic Advantage Electronic control provides engine protection. Three protection strategies alarms, deratings, and shutdowns are programmable by the equipment operator to help prevent serious downtime incidents without interfering with safe machinery operation. With the derating feature selected, the engine will automatically derate itself gradually in steps as little as 2-3 percent if it enters a dangerous operating zone resulting from air inlet restriction, insufficient cooling, high exhaust temperature, overspeed, or any other cause. Automatic derating does not occur if the operator reacts first to move the engine out of the dangerous operating zone.

Since their introduction in 1985, 3600 engines (3606, 3608, 3612, and 3616) have delivered more than five million working hours in wide-ranging equipment and industrial applications. Many customers are repeat buyers, indicating that 3600 engines meet and exceed expectations. Confidence to Run Harder and Work Longer Available in in-line 6- and 8-cylinder configurations and V-12 and V-16 models, Cat 3600 engines feature a one-piece block casting of heavily ribbed, weldable gray iron. The intake plenum runs the full engine length, providing even air distribution to the cylinders. The crankshaft is a press forging that is induction hardened and regrindable. Bearings are steel-backed aluminum with a copper-bonded, lead-tin overlay for longer life. Cylinder liners are high alloy iron castings, waterjacketed over their entire length. Pistons are twopiece, with a steel crown for strength and an aluminum skirt to reduce weight. Both cylinder liners and pistons are designed for 80 000 hours using No. 2 fuel. Overall, 3600 engines are designed to run 40 000 hours between major overhauls, and 20 000 hours between minor overhauls using No. 2 fuel. A New Standard for Fuel Efficiency Cat 3600 engines put 45 percent of the heat generated to work, a dramatic increase over the engineering rule of thumb of 30 percent. Brakespecific fuel consumption of the engine with two water pumps, a fuel pump and an oil pump is as low as 187 g/bkW-hour (0.307 lb/bhp-hour).

But when you choose a member of the Cat 3600 engine family, you can count on thousands of hours of trouble-free performance and the lowest possible operating costs. That was the goal when Caterpillar began research into heavy-fuel alternatives, and it remains the guiding principle today as Cat heavy-fuel engines work around the world. Made Better by Design, Proven by Research In addition to research into heavy-fuel performance, Caterpillar has conducted extensive research into the characteristics of heavy fuel. By the time the engines went into production, we knew exactly how heavy fuel affected an engines performance and durability. We tested 3600 engine performance on fuels with viscosities up to 700 dSt (at 50 C), the consistency of tar. To simulate the poorest commercially available fuel, we added 5 percent sulfur and 600 ppm of vanadium. After 10 years and 80,000 hours of testing distillate and heavy fuels, the Cat heavyfuel-burning 3600 engines were ready for release. State-Of-the-Art Componentry for Heavy Fuel Use The following special components enhance component life and enable these engines to run efficiently and economically on the heaviest fuel available. Fuel injectors optimized for high-viscosity fuel Cooling for fuel injector nozzle tips Flange-cooled cylinder liners Ceramic-coated nimonic 80A exhaust valves Water-cooled valve inserts High mass flow turbochargers Turbocharger water wash Remote-mounted, heated fuel filter

Flexibility for the Future By substituting parts, typically at overhaul time, you can convert 3600 engines from distillate to heavyfuel configurations, and vice versa. The 3600 family of engines can also burn crude oil, with engine ratings dependent upon fuel characteristics. Generally, these ratings fall between those for distillate and heavy fuel.

Gaseous Fuel Engines

Clearing the Air About Emissions As concern for air quality grows, governments and municipalities everywhere are enacting new laws to curb emissions from burning fossil fuels. This trend has made cleaner burning gas engines more attractive than ever before. In some areas and applications, a regional abundance of low-cost gases, coupled with the inherent combustion efficiency of gaseous fuels, make the economic benefits of gas engines as attractive as their low emissions. Engineering Thats Ahead of Its Time Caterpillar developed its first gas-powered engines more than 50 years ago, leveraging the quality engineering and manufacturing of its diesel engines to produce equally high performance and economy for a new segment of the industrial market. Because gas engines satisfy the need for emission control without sacrificing efficiency and economy, they have become the power source of choice for more and more users and applications. You Choose the Most Economical Fuel Unlike diesel fuel engines, Cat gas engines let you choose the most economic gaseous fuel. Natural, field, landfill, and propane gas can all be burned efficiently. Digester and other manufactured gases, many of which are free by-products of other processes, can also be used in some applications. Meeting the Challenge of Lower Emissions Specific Cat gas engine packages currently achieve emissions within the limits set by the worlds strictest air quality boards, including the United States, EPA, Europes TA Luft, and the Environmental Agency of Japan. Achieving this level of performance requires leaner combustion without sacrificing power. The open chamber design, available on engines through 1,340 bhp, was engineered by Caterpillar to meet the challenge. The larger G3600 family, along with specially designed, gallery-cooled deep cup pistons for fast, efficient combustion, uses a state-of-theart, electronically controlled pre-chamber design to obtain NOx levels as low as 0.5 gr/bhp-hr. Technical Advantages Make the Economics Even Better No matter what fuel you choose, Cat gas engines will get the most out of it. At the heart of the high performance of all Cat gas engines through 1,340 bhp is a simple open-chamber design. This open-chamber combustion, along with the specially designed pistons, low overlap cams, and an air induction system that keeps the air-fuel mixture lean, serves to increase power while minimizing NOx.

Unbeatable Versatility Cat gas engine packages can be tailored to your specific application or site-specific requirements. For example, special hardware and components are available for landfill applications and sites where only lowpressure gas supplies are available. Naturally aspirated or turbocharged and aftercooled options allow you to match emissions and dependability requirements to your specific needs. Cat gas engines are also ideal for cogeneration, chillers, air compressors, water pumps, and a variety of industrial processes. With operating ranges from 900 to 1800 rpm, youll find a comfortable match for any equipment you need to drive. Diesel Strength is Built In No matter which model of Cat gas engine you choose, you can rest assured that you will benefit from the same legendary performance, economy and value that have built on the Caterpillar worldwide reputation. One good example is the fact that Cat gas engines are built on diesel engine frames. That means greater reliability, lower maintenance and repair costs, and longer service life. Components such as blocks, crankshafts, heads, liners, and connecting rods are also common with Cat diesel engines. A Choice of Aspiration Methods Although emission regulations are increasing the use of turbocharged and aftercooled engines, many still choose naturally aspirated gas engines for their reliability and low maintenance characteristics. Less supervision makes it possible to operate Cat gas engines in very remote areas of the world with complete confidence.
