C15 Tractor Engine. The Cat C15
Electronically Controlled Unit Injection
(EUI) diesel engine powers the tractor.
With dual horsepower capability,
it provides high power and torque rise
for excellent lugging in tough loading
conditions. The C15 is designed for
long hours of continuous operation with
high displacement and low RPM ratings.
C9 Scraper Engine. The 627G is tandem
powered by the Cat C9 scraper engine
for peak performance and high
productivity in self-loading applications.
The C9 has a smaller physical envelope
than the Cat 3306 it replaced, weighs
less, and delivers more horsepower.
In addition, all daily inspection points
are located on the right hand side for
easier maintenance.
Dual Horsepower . Electronic engines
deliver increased power when the auger
is engaged or when the machine is in
the roading gears, providing quicker
acceleration on the haul road.
ACERT Technology. The C15 and the
C9 electronic engines with ACERT
technology meet US EPA Tier 3 and
EU Stage III emission regulations.
ACERT technology reduces emissions
during the combustion process by using
advanced technology in the air and fuel
systems, in conjunction with integrated
electronics. Caterpillar meets emission
regulations at the combustion source
rather than recycling exhaust gases.
Electronic Control Module (ECM).
The ECM responds to operator
commands and engine sensor input
to optimize engine and machine
performance. This advanced engine
management software controls and
protects the engine at all times against
cold starts, high altitude operations and
air filter plugging by monitoring:
• injection timing and pressure
• engine cooling fan speed
• ether starting aid
• hydraulic pumps
ADEM™. The ADEM controls engine
speed by adjusting the fuel duration,
resulting in quicker starts in hot and
cold weather, better fuel economy,
better operator response, and automatic
compensation for altitude and filter
plugging.
Air-to-Air Aftercooling (ATAAC).
Reduces air inlet temperature for
enhanced combustion efficiency,
reduced emissions levels, higher
altitude capability, and more power.
Greater Reliability. The EUI system
has fewer moving parts than mechanical
unit injection and requires few
adjustments. ECM communicates with
the monitoring system (EMS) to warn
the operator of potential problems,
preventing major damage from occurring.
Maintenance. EUI engines have
virtually no mechanically controlled
parts to wear or adjust. These have
been replaced by electronic controls,
reducing maintenance costs and
increasing machine availability.
Control Throttle Shifting (CTS).
Automatically synchronizes engine
speed to transmission speed when
shifting gears. CTS reduces power train
stress and increases component life, as
well as providing a smoother ride for
the operator.
Automatic Ether Injection. ECM
activates the ether injection system
during engine cranking to help ensure
reliable engine start-up in extreme cold
operating conditions.
Directional Shift Management.
During directional shifts or shifts
from neutral during high engine speed,
engages speed clutches before directional
clutches to reduce power train energy
and increase power train life.
Automatic Altitude Compensation.
The ECM automatically matches
fuel delivery to barometric pressure.
Auto deration protects against excessive
combustion temperatures that could
result in component damage.
