1104D Mechanical
Transient Performance Characteristics
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
Introduction
The 1104D Mechanical represents a significant achievement in providing our customers with a minimum-impact route to Tier 3 compliance and provides a market-leading level of power density & performance. However, Tier 3 emissions limits in this power range are significantly tighter than at Tier 2 and this effectively limits the range of possible ‘adjustment’ to optimise engine performance. Customers are likely to identify some changes in the response characteristics of the engine, when compared to a comparable Tier 2 model. In many cases, these changes will be insignificant, or may be overcome by fine tuning of the installation/ driveline; in other cases, the customer requirements may be more effectively satisfied through the selection of a different engine configuration.This presentation is the front piece to a package of information that sets out to: • • • • • Reinforce the positioning of the 1104D Mechanical product within the range; Define areas where customers might see a change in machine operating characteristics; Identify areas where compensating adjustments could be made to machines; Provide guidance as to the sensitivity of various application types to these issues; Suggest the most suitable engine configuration for specific customer sensitivities The objective is to ensure that the customer has enough information to make an informed selection of the most appropriate engine configuration for the application.

Customer Expectations at Tier 3
‘The next generation is always better’ ‘The engine will be more responsive at Tier 3’ ‘The engine will have less visible smoke at Tier 3’ General Customer Expectations: Driveability = Tier 2 or better Smoke = Less visible smoke Power/ Torque = Tier 2 or better Fuel Consumption = Minimal change Package Size = Drop-in solution General Performance = Improvements In reality, achieving a Mechanical offering at Stage IIIA/ Tier 3 results in some compromises (especially levels of visible smoke and low speed response)

What is Transient Response?
Responsiveness of the Machine
Load acceptance from low idle How the engine responds when applying sudden load Loaded acceleration from low idle How the machine performs accelerating from a standing start Acceleration from a loaded condition How the machine feels accelerating through the speed range
Smoke
Free Acceleration Smoke (FAS) Level of black smoke when blipping the throttle from idle with the machine in neutral and any PTO unloaded Loaded Acceleration Smoke Level of black smoke generated during acceleration with the machine loaded
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
1) Load Acceptance from Low Idle
How the engine responds when applying sudden load?
Load Acceptance from Low Idle degradation from equivalent Stage II/ Tier 2 model 1104D-44: -10% 1104D-44T: -20% 1104D-44TA: -10% The trade-off between low speed, un-boosted torque and Free Acceleration Smoke (FAS) has been optimised for all ratings by the Engineering team at IPSD Customers can increase low idle speed, or rematch machine transmission and hydraulic demands, to further improve performance
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
2) Loaded Acceleration from Low Idle
How the machine feels to the operator when accelerating from a standing start with a heavy load?
Loaded Acceptance from Low Idle degradation from Tier 2 1104D-44NA: -10% 1104D-44T: Dependent on machine loading characteristics 1104D-44TA: Dependent on machine loading characteristics Atmospheric Boost Control (ABC) will improve performance IPSD offers two variants of low pressure options to best match to application Customers can increase low idle speed, or rematch machine transmission and hydraulic demands, to further improve performance
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
3) Acceleration from a Loaded Condition
How the machine feels to the operator when accelerating through the speed range?
1104D will achieve boosted fuel at lower manifold pressure than the 1104C Stage II/ Tier 2 range The product will feel more responsive in many circumstances Naturally Aspirated product (1104D-44) will see a degradation of around 10% compared to Stage II/ Tier 2
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
4) Free Acceleration Smoke (FAS)
Level of black smoke when blipping the throttle from idle with the machine in neutral and any PTO’s unloaded?
FAS will be higher than 1104C but within legislation requirements (including Switzerland & Austria) There will be visible black smoke at Stage IIIA/ Tier 3 Mechanical Smoke acceptability is highly subjective Manage customer expectations relative to Stage II/ Tier 2 product Certain markets will be more sensitive to smoke than others The trade-off between low speed, un-boosted torque and Free Acceleration Smoke (FAS) has been optimised for all ratings by the Engineering team at IPSD Customer improvements can be made by optimising drive train inertias and managing engine acceleration
Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
5) Loaded Acceleration Smoke
Level of black smoke generated during acceleration with the machine loaded?
Loaded Acceleration Smoke will be higher than 1104C Smoke levels are highly subjective and will need to be assessed at the customer level Flag the issue to Applications if… The customer is in a highly smoke sensitive market (e.g. Scandinavia) The environment the machine is operating in requires no visible smoke (e.g. indoor) The machine will be performing a lot of complex operations (e.g. Shovel Loader)

Tier 3 Emissions Challenge
Experience from on-highway development shows that Tier 3 levels of NOx would typically require Electronic FIE strategies.
Heavy-Duty Diesel NOx-PM Trade-Off By Technologies and Legislation
Some engine manufacturers have achieved Tier 3 levels with rotary mechanical FIE, using innovative technological approaches.
IPSD will offer a full range of mechanical products between 54.5 and 83kW, from NA to TA to meet the needs of each customer.

Engine Speed [rpm]
Tier 2 Tier 3
2000 2200 Full-load torque curves are similar for Tier 2 and Tier 3 ratings However, un-boosted torque is lower on Tier 3 due to emissions control strategies The penalties of low un boosted torque have been offset to some extent by management of fuelling control to transition to fully-boosted torque at lower speed
Tier 3 Concerns:
• Low-speed load acceptance • Acceleration from low idle • Operating close to smoke limit
Tier 3 Strengths:
• Competitive mechanical strategy • More responsive from part load than Tier 2 • More lugging capability than Tier 2

Product sensitivities are application dependent. Selection of the right product, and managing customer expectations, is the key to avoiding transient issues Industrial Power Systems Division Confidential ‘Green’
Assessment of Transient Acceptability
Transient acceptability is largely subjective. The following criteria should be considered in relation to a specific customer requirement: • Level of transient operation • Customer brand proposition • Sensitivity to visible smoke

What should I be doing?
Determine if any of your customers are sensitive to smoke or response based on territory and application Make customers aware that the transient characteristics of the 1104D are different from Stage II/ Tier 2 Manage customer expectations accordingly Smoke, although highly subjective, is worse than Stage II/ Tier 2 Machine responsiveness will be different at Stage IIIA/ Tier 3 Sell the strong product benefits, there is a positive side to the transient story Steady state performance has improved over Stage II/ Tier 2 Product is more responsive from part load Product has additional lugging capability Strong position vs. other mechanical offerings in the marketplace
