Why Choosing It

ECU A3

 

• CAN J1939 data link • Waterproof connectors • Maintenance free • Backup ECU for redundant regulation

 

Advantages Electronic System

 

• Load Feedback • Programmable Droop • Adjustable Gain • Adjustable Air/Fuel Ratio Control • Engine Operation Histograms • Cat Messenger Display with Engine and Diagnostic Parameters

Benefits of Data Via J1939 Link

 

• Engine speed • Boost pressure • Throttle position • Fuel consumption rate • Intake manifold temperature • Diagnostic codes and events • Configuration • Desired engine speed • Battery voltage • Engine load • Running totals – engine hours, fuel burned, fuel idle, idle hours • Trip totals – average fuel flow, idle fuel, idle hours, engine hours, fuel burned, trip reset

 

User Interface Panel

 

Interfaces with Cat® Marine monitoring system (PLC in price list) • Provides visual indication of ECU functionality • Accepts 4 – 20 mA or PWM input for remote throttle speed • Alarm and protection for marine engines

 

Electronic Unit Injectors

 

• “Drop-in” installation • No threaded fuel connections • High pressure only inside the injector • No double-walled fuel lines or leak catch device required • No injector synchronization required

Standard Equipment

The engine includes standard equipment, already included in the purchase package. They are:

 

AIR INTAKE SYSTEM

• Aftercooler, fresh water, with corrosion resistant coating (air side)

• Stopping the air intake

• Breather, base, top mounting

• Turbocharger, lubricated with engine oil

CONTROL SYSTEM

• Dual Caterpillar A-III engine electronic control modules with electronic unit injection fuel system

• Hard wire harness (10A 24V power to engine electronic control modules)

COOLING SYSTEM

• Engine coolant water drains

EXHAUST SYSTEM

• Exhaust manifold, gas-tight, dry

FUEL SYSTEM

• Distillate fuel (requires a viscosity between 1.4 cSt and 20 cSt at 38°C)

• Fuel delivery pump (left side mounted)

• Double fuel filters

• Electronically controlled unit injectors

LUBRICATION SYSTEMS

• Centrifugal oil filters with single exclusion. Side service engine mounted on engine block check covers. Includes installed oil lines and single shutoff valve. The filters centrifuge the bypass oil from the main lube oil pump. Maintenance can be performed with the engine running.
