PowerTech 9.0L engines offer exceptional levels of power and fuel economy, and feature the high-pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel system that provides higher injection pressures, variable timing control, and more precise control of fuel injection. Fuel delivery in the HPCR system is controlled by an electronic control unit that maximizes fuel efficiency by regulating fuel delivery for various loads and speeds. Directed top-liner cooling reduces liner temperatures as much as 130 degrees, improves power cylinder durability and head gasket life, and reduces oil consumption and emissions.
Electronic controls monitor critical engine functions and can reduce power or shut the engine down to prevent potential damage. These controls eliminate the need for costly engine warning components.
SAE J1939 standard communication link lets the engine interface with other vehicle systems: transmission, hydraulics, accessory drives, etc., reducing the installed cost.
