Cummins launches SCR only Stage IV/Tier 4 engines

Cummins used bauma to reveal the QSF3.8 – a four-cylinder engine platform delivering a power range of 63-89kW – which is ready to meet Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions regulations. Using only SCR for its exhaust after-treatment process, the QSF3.8 avoids the need for either DOC or DPF as a result of using a high-efficiency catalyst to convert oxides of nitrogen at lower exhaust temperatures while requiring only low doses of DEF, said the company.

Cummins QSF3.8 uses an SCR-only after treatment system.
196 Cummins used bauma to reveal the QSF3.8 – a four-cylinder engine platform delivering a power range of 63-89kW – which is ready to meet Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions regulations.

Using only SCR for its exhaust after-treatment process, the QSF3.8 avoids the need for either DOC or DPF as a result of using a high-efficiency catalyst to convert oxides of nitrogen at lower exhaust temperatures while requiring only low doses of DEF, said the company.

The high-efficiency SCR system also reduces the amount of cooled exhaust gas being recirculated through the engine, simultaneously reducing engine loading and placing lower demands on the cooling system.

“The QSF3.8 has the highest power output of any sub-four litre engine in its class,” said Tom Linebarger, Cummins chairman and CEO.

Although the new QSF3.8 is larger in displacement and meets stricter emissions standards than the QSB3.3, it achieves a similar fuel efficiency to its smaller stablemate while providing 10% more power and 18% more torque.

    CIFA is widening its range of innovative Carbotech concrete pumps with three new additions to the line-up. The firm introduced the first two truck-mounted models with carbon-fibre booms three years ago and the first two models in the range were the 45m class K45H and 62m class K62H. The new 29m class MK25H, 39m class K39H and 80m class K80H significantly broaden the Carbotech range. The most notable of these is the highly advanced K80H, which is now the concrete pump with the longest boom available for the

    John Deere’s K Series wheeled loaders have adopted Tier 4 Final emissions standards through the use of John Deere PowerTech engines. The company has also improved machine durability through the addition of standard axle cooling and filtration, the use of brake retractors and automatic adjusters to prevent wear and cut fuel consumption through brake drag. The K Series utility wheeled loaders also feature a standard five-speed lock-up torque converter transmission that is said to cut fuel use by 5-8%.
