INTERMAT reveal for Scania’s emissions solution

Scania’s integration of XPi high pressure common rail injection and selective catalytic reduction has enabled the Swedish engine maker to meet 2014 Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions regulations without a diesel particulate filter. “Developments in metallurgy have helped to strengthen components and lead to increased injection pressures, typically up to 2400 bar,” said Scania industrial engine sales director, Bernt Gustavsson. “A compact DOC is neatly integrated into the SCR system, which saves on space needed

759 Scania’s integration of XPi high pressure common rail injection and selective catalytic reduction has enabled the Swedish engine maker to meet 2014 Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions regulations without a diesel particulate filter.

“Developments in metallurgy have helped to strengthen components and lead to increased injection pressures, typically up to 2400 bar,” said Scania industrial engine sales director, Bernt Gustavsson.

“A compact DOC is neatly integrated into the SCR system, which saves on space needed for those with installation constraints.”

Mr Gustavsson says its modular development programme for its inline five- and six-cylinder platforms, plus the 16-litre V8 engine, has enabled refinement of combustion and cooled EGR processes – it is technology that the company has a lot of experience with, and which it employs for its on-road truck and bus applications.

“We may need to add an exhaust brake on engines operating under light duty cycles to raise the exhaust temperature so that SCR remains effective at very light loads,” he said.

  • Meeting engine emission regulations challenges
    February 16, 2012
    New engine emission regulations pose major challenges for engine manufacturers - Geoff Ashcroft reports. The arrival of emissions regulations in January for engines over 130kW has meant that engine makers have adopted varied technologies to meet and exceed those goals. For the end user though, buying new kit that complies with Tier 4 Interim/Stage IIIB emissions regulations is likely to carry additional costs.

Tough regulations are in force in North America and Europe with regard to emissions, a programme introduced to help reduce pollution from off-highway machines. These technologies are also being introduced in stages in other territories, with China now rolling out tougher regulations.
