Perkins will demonstrate how its engine will meet EU Stage IV/US Tier 4 Final emissions regulations

Perkins will showcase a complete line-up of Stage IV/Tier 4 Final engine solutions at Bauma, ahead of the new legislation next year. The four cylinder 854F-E34TA will demonstrate much of the technology on offer, as it uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) with an exhaust additive, plus a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC). Both Perkins’ 3.4 and 4.4-litre engine lines make do without a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), though the larger 7 litre will use a DPF as well.

299 Perkins will showcase a complete line-up of Stage IV/Tier 4 Final engine solutions at Bauma, ahead of the new legislation next year. The four cylinder 854F-E34TA will demonstrate much of the technology on offer, as it uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) with an exhaust additive, plus a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC). Both Perkins’ 3.4 and 4.4-litre engine lines make do without a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), though the larger 7 litre will use a DPF as well.

Perkins has boosted performance of the 854F-E34TA engine to 90kW (121hp), despite retaining the 8% fuel consumption improvement that was achieved at Stage IIIB. Heat rejection is also similar, so manufacturers should not need to install larger cooling packs to cope with the move to Stage IV.

Also on show will be a 1200 Series 1206F-E70TA, with an output of 151kW (202hp). This engine packages the DOC/DPF and SCR systems in a single integrated module, which can be remotely mounted in the machine, again making it easier for machine OEMs to make the change to Stage IV standards in the coming years. Perkins says that its DPF should remain service-free for up to 8,000 hours on a 60% duty cycle. It will be possible for customers to have the DPF cleaned or replaced when the time comes and the company can check how far into the process the DPF is for used equipment sales. Perkins also claims to have a process in place for its engines to be de-Tiered, for machine resale in less regulated territories.

Stand: Hall A4, 316

    April 16, 2012
    Perkins used INTERMAT to reveal its six-cylinder solution to meet US EPA Tier 4 Final/EU Stage IV emissions regulations due in 2014. Top of the six-cylinder range is the twin turbo, 1206F-E70TTA – a 7litre engine capable of producing up to 225kW. Key to the engine’s cleanliness is a revised emissions module that now adds an SCR system to the existing DOC and DPF elements, but without increasing its physical size.

    The Cummins Engine stand this year’s Bauma will be dominated by one of the largest engines at the show, alongside one of the smallest. The firm will show a 37kW (49hp) 2.8-litre QSF2.8 alongside its giant QSK95, which delivers 3,130kW (4,200hp). These two engine highlight extensions to both ends of the Cummins offering, one of the broadest in the industry that is capable of meeting the coming Stage IV/Tier 4 Final emissions legislation.

    January 6, 2017
    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.
