3.084-3.393 bhp (2.300-2.530 bkW)
Speed range
900 rpm
Emissions
IMO II
The durability and reliability of its platform are the hallmarks of the C280-8 engine. As with the entire C280 engine line, it complies with IMO II standards and benefits from the latest capabilities of the EUI fuel system and the innovative ADEM™ A3 electronic control unit (ECU). As with most Caterpillar engines, the C280-8 delivers great power combined with extraordinary fuel efficiency. It comes with extended maintenance intervals and a worldwide Caterpillar service and parts network.
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 JI939 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 remote throttle speed input • Marine alarm and protection
Electronic Unit Injectors
- “Drop-in” installation • No threaded fuel connections • High pressure only inside the injector • No double-walled fuel line or leak catcher required • No injector synchronization required
