Deutz: engines are Stage V ready

Engine manufacturer Deutz says that all of its Stage IV engines are ready for the proposed Stage V emissions legislation that will come into force in 2019/2020.

Using 201 Deutz Variable Emissions Technology (DVERT), the company says that it can combine or make dedicated emissions solutions for every market in which its engines are sold.

The firm’s 2.9-3.6 litre engines use a Diesel Oxidation catalyst (DOC) with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), while larger 4.1-7.8 litre engines operate with a Diesel Particulate Filter and SCR to meet Stage IV. For Stage V, where Particulate Matter (PM) will be counted, the company concedes that a DPF will be required for every engine, a move that can be accommodated within the DVERT system.

“It will be mandatory to use a DPF, you can’t fulfil this standard without a DPF,” said chief sales officer Michael Wellenzohn.

“But Deutz is Stage V ready. We already fulfil the Stage V emissions standard and this gives our customers a very flexible transition into Stage V. Customers running our Stage IV product today will just have to get the certification for Stage V.”

Hitachi design engineers have incorporated new TRIAS II technology into the Zaxis-6 range of excavators to meet EU Stage IV emission regulations. Hydraulic loss is decreased by reducing the amount of hydraulic oil returned to the tank due to cooperative control of the pump and valve.
