John Deere Power Systems completes engine line-up

John Deere Power Systems used bauma to complete its engine line-up for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emissions regulations. This included the arrival of the PowerTechTM PWL 4.5L engine, which meets emissions regulations without a diesel particulate filter (DPF). Spanning outputs from 63-104kW, this four-cylinder, 4.5litre engine offers reduced cost and improves engine packaging by eliminating the DPF, said Deere.

257 John Deere Power Systems used 688 Bauma to complete its engine line-up for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emissions regulations.

This included the arrival of the PowerTechTM PWL 4.5L engine, which meets emissions regulations without a diesel particulate filter (DPF). Spanning outputs from 63-104kW, this four-cylinder, 4.5litre engine offers reduced cost and improves engine packaging by eliminating the DPF, said Deere.

However, the engine uses selective catalytic reduction (SCR), a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) as part of its emissions control package.

“By eliminating the DPF, we have not compromised fuel efficiency or engine performance,” said Jean-Louis Mouchel, John Deere Power Systems’ director of engine marketing, sales and service for Europe, Africa, Middle East, Asia and Australia. “When it comes to total fluid cost – our diesel exhaust fluid consumption is around 1-3% – we have developed a cost-effective engine package for customers.

“Low diesel exhaust fluid consumption also means we can use a smaller fluid tank, minimising the installation space required on vehicles.”

In the lower power 36-55kW sector, John Deere Power Systems has introduced the three-cylinder 2.9litre PowerTech EWX 2.9L, using a two-valve cylinder head design, enabling the engine to use a combined DOC/DPF, without the need for cooled EGR or SCR.

“We are confident that all our solutions will deliver industry-leading performance and value while meeting required long-term emissions compliance,” said Mouchel.

These latest engine introductions give John Deere Power Systems a wide range of engine solutions for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV, spanning 36-448kW.

    February 7, 2013
    Scania will be showing both Euro 6 engines for its on-highway truck range and Stage IIB/Tier 4 Final powerplants for off-highway use. The company will use both exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to meet the coming regulations, as with its current Stage IIIB solution. This means the fitting of a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) but no requirement for a DPF. Scania engines are currently in use in Terex and Doosan articulated haulers, along with a number of Terex crushing ma

    Perkins has completed its line-up of four-cylinder engines for Tier 4 Final/Stage IV with the introduction of the 854F-E34TA – the latest in its 800 Series range. The compact, four-cylinder, 3.4litre engine incorporates specially developed SCR technology for the first time. Packaged separately from the DOC module, it can be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical position, giving OEMs of compact machinery greater installation flexibility in the engine bay.

    Deutz has adopted a dual SCR after-treatment system on its high output TCD Vee engines to meet Tier 4 final emissions standards. Using a dual SCR system, the water-cooled 90-degree V6 12litre and V8 16litre engines, with power outputs from 390-520kW, were found not to require cooled EGR, DOC or DPF technologies. Compared to a similar engine using cooled EGR, Deutz said its TCD12 and TCD16 can operate with a cooling package that is around 20-25% smaller, improving installation packaging for OEMs.
