MTU reveals sulphur tolerance solution for lesser regulated markets

A high-sulphur fuel capability has been announced by MTU for its industrial engines. The move enables OEM’s to adopt the latest MTU engine technology in countries where ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) is not available. MTU’s sulphur tolerance solution will be available in mid-2014 for Tier 4 Interim 900, 500 and 460 series engines. This will be followed by the company’s complete line up of Tier 4 Final certified engines in the 1000-1500 series in the future.

A high-sulphur fuel capability has been announced by 7648 MTU for its industrial engines. The move enables OEM’s to adopt the latest MTU engine technology in countries where ultra-low sulphur diesel (ULSD) is not available.

MTU’s sulphur tolerance solution will be available in mid-2014 for Tier 4 Interim 900, 500 and 460 series engines. This will be followed by the company’s complete line up of Tier 4 Final certified engines in the 1000-1500 series in the future.

The solution involves recalibration of the engine ECU to isolate the after-treatment system. Once disabled, the SCR catalyst does not need to be removed, said the company.

MTU said this new capability should simplify design, ordering and installation processes for OEMs and repower customers around the world.

    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.

    Volvo Construction Equipment’s new extractor for bituminous fumes will be shown at bauma, where it has been shortlisted for an Innovation Award. The company says the design improves the operator environment on the company’s ABG pavers by substantially reducing fumes without significantly increasing fuel consumption, noise or affecting visibility into the auger channel. The system, which is available as an option on Volvo CE’s C-Series ABG pavers, is said to introduce a new way of removing fumes from the ope
