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.

    The forthcoming Tier 4 emissions legislation represents a great leap forward in technology, Mike Woof reports A high-profile focus on sustainability and reduced environmental impact is sweeping the construction sector in the European Union (EU) and the US. The EU and the US will implement regulations for the lowest emission off-road machines in history, with Canada and Japan expected to release similar regulatory programmes this year. The legislation being introduced will transform the construction indu

    JCB is now fitting its new Tier 4 JCB Ecomax diesel engine to its latest rough terrain forklift range. The engine delivers the same 55kW output as the previous Dieselmax motor, but meets the Tier 4 emissions regulations without the need for a diesel particulate filter or an SCR exhaust after-treatment system. This reduces running costs for customers and the Ecomax engine is being fitted to all four models in JCB’s RTFL range: the 926, 930, 940 and 950.
