Cummins achieves stage V certification with B6.7 and L9 engines

Cummins has announced that its latest B6.7 and L9 engines are fully EU Stage V emissions certified and in full production at its Darlington engine plant in the UK. “The latest emissions compliant specification has resulted in higher power and torque in a smaller, lighter overall package that has become cheaper to run,” said Eric Neal, executive director of Cummins off-highway business.

Cummins B6.7 and L9 engines are EU Stage V emissions certified

196 Cummins has announced that its latest B6.7 and L9 engines are fully EU Stage V emissions certified and in full production at its Darlington engine plant in the UK.

“The latest emissions compliant specification has resulted in higher power and torque in a smaller, lighter overall package that has become cheaper to run,” said Eric Neal, executive director of Cummins off-highway business.

And, he added, “Cummins’ ability to tailor engine power and torque curves and make full use of our in-house equipment such as turbochargers and exhaust after-treatment packaging, is enabling OEM’s to be more competitive.”

Top rated power for the B6.7 has increased to 243kW, with a peak torque of 1375Nm representing an increase of 30% over that achieved at EU Stage IV levels. The larger L9 engine has increased from 291kW up to 321kW, together with a 13% increase in peak torque, to achieve 1846Nm.

“The higher capability of these engines is delivering down-sizing opportunities for our equipment manufacturers,” he said.

    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.
