How does the Caterpillar C9 air management system work?

How does the Caterpillar C9 air management system work?

Improved air management uses a series of turbochargers to force more cool, clean air into the combustion chamber instead of cooled-EGR technology. The C9 also uses variable valve actuation to control air where electronic control valve actuation complementary to camshaft actuation. A diesel oxidation catalyst further reduces emissions.

When did Caterpillar stop using the C9 engine?

This included Clean Gas Induction (CGI) and a particulate filter with Cat Regeneration System (CRS). In 2008, Caterpillar has announced that they will not be updating their engines for EPA 2010 certification, and will exit the on-highway engine business entirely. The C9 has been discontinued as of 2010. Max. Power Max. Torque

What kind of industries are powered by C9 diesel engines?

More importantly, they’re backed by the world-class Cat dealer network ready to service and support every Cat industrial engine. Industries and applications powered by C9 engines include Agriculture, Ag Tractors, Aircraft Ground Support, Bore/Drill Rigs, Chippers/Grinders, Combines/Harvesters, Compactors/Rollers, Compressors]

What kind of emissions does a C9 engine have?

C9 engines, with ratings: 205-280 bkW (275-375 bhp) @ 1800-2200 rpm, meet China Stage II, EPA Tier 3 equivalent, EU Stage IIIA equivalent emission standards.
