Benefits and Features

World-class manufacturing capability and processes coupled with proven core engine designs assure reliability, quiet operation, and many hours of productive life.

Simple and efficient turbocharger with balance valve provides optimal air management and improved fuel efficiency.

Fuel consumption optimized to match operating cycles of a wide range of equipment and applications while maintaining low operating costs.

Tier 4 Final, Stage IV engines require Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel containing a maximum of 15 ppm sulfur, and new oil formulations to support the new technology. Cat® engines are designed to accommodate B20 biofuel. Your Cat dealer can provide more information regarding fuel and oil.

Industry-leading range of factory configurable ratings and options for agricultural, materials-handling, construction, mining, forestry, waste, and other industrial applications.

Exceptional power density enables standardization across numerous applications. Multiple installation options minimize total package size. Ideal for equipment with narrow engine compartments.
