P ress R elease - FPT Industrial

Paris, April 2012
FPT Industrial is present at Intermat (Paris, April 16 – 21, Pavilion 5A, stand J
144) with its full range of Tier 4 Final/Stage IV engines for construction
applications. The booth of the Italian company, one of the most important
producers of engines for industrial applications, is located inside a 3,600sqm
exhibition area totally dedicated to the Fiat Industrial Group.
The FPT industrial offer in the construction sector is based on the F5, NEF and
CURSOR engine families, ranging from 40 to 500 kW (55 – 680 HP). The
technological excellence and lean design of these products result, for the
customer, in top performance, low operating costs and high reliability.
To comply with the forthcoming Tier 4 Final/Stage IV regulations on emissions,
FPT Industrial’s choice is the “SCR-Only” technology for engines in off-road
applications.
Thanks to combustion optimization and development in the exhaust gas aftertreatment system, the new engines will occupy a leadership position in terms of
efficiency, robustness and quality, whilst at the same time improving its
environmental impact. FPT Industrial has achieved a reduction of more than 95%
of NOx emissions, thanks to the implementation of a specifically developed
software in combination with the High Efficiency SCR after-treatment hardware.
The company's commitment to continuous innovation to satisfy the needs of its
customers brings considerable benefits. In addition to a reduction in operating
costs throughout the lifecycle of the product, FPT Industrial's “SCR-Only”
technology guarantees one of the most reliable and fuel efficient engines. Great
attention has also been given to ease of installation and system flexibility.
In case of packaging constraints typical for small sized industrial machines and
for low displacement engines, the Company can adopt a different approach,
using a small SCR system together with a light externally cooled EGR (Exhaust
Gas Recirculation).

FPT INDUSTRIAL PRESENTS ITS FULL RANGE OF TIER 4 FINAL/STAGE IV
ENGINES FOR CONSTRUCTION APPLICATIONS AT INTERMAT 2012.
Also in this approach, the absence of the DPF filter, in line with our aftertreatment philosophy, allows for reduced maintenance costs and easier
integration of the powertrain.
Diesel engines, because of the chemistry of combustion, produce pollutants like
NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) and Particulate (PM) that are damaging the environment.
The possible strategies for reducing them are:
- A combination of EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) together with
DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) and SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction).
- A combination of EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) together with
DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) and SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction).
- A combination of DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) and SCR
(Selective Catalytic Reduction).
The use of the EGR system reduces the NOx emissions in the combustion
chamber, through exhaust gas recirculation with a consequential increase in the
production of particulate, a reduction in combustion efficiency and the need for a
a DOC or DPF.
FPT Industrial has chosen instead to increase the engine efficiency and reduce
the particulate produced by the combustion, due to the absence of recirculated
exhaust gasses. NOx is then reduced in the exhaust system, thanks to the High
Efficiency SCR System, while improving fuel consumption, performance and
reliability.
FPT Industrial's High Efficiency SCR is able to reduce the NOx levels more than
95%, without having to resort to other systems, such as EGR.
The system is composed of:
- The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)
- The AdBlue dosing module.
- The AdBlue mixer
- The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
- The Clean Up Catalyst (CUC)
The whole system is fitted with a network of integrated sensors to control the
NOx and any excess of NH3 (ammonia) emitted.

FPT Industrial’s High Efficiency SCR system:
•
•
•
•
"Closed" control to allow precise dosing of AdBlue in order to cut the level
of NOx emissions.
Adaptive AdBlue dosing system thanks to control technology based on
the use of NOx and ammonia sensors to provide accurate information on
the composition of the exhaust gases.
Thermally insulated high turbulence mixing, to allow homogeneous
hydrolysis of urea and correct distribution in exhaust gas flow.
Improved thermal management to speed up SCR light-off in the cold part
of emission cycle
The use of these patented new technologies allows to achieve reductions of more
than 95% in NOx levels, over the entire engine cycle.
The main advantages for customers can be summarized in:
•
•
•
•
•
Reduction in operating costs over the entire product lifecycle.
Reduced engine cooling system.
No PM after-treatment resulting in higher reliability and lower
maintenance costs.
Higher power potential without a mandatory sophisticated air handling
system.
Compact system allowing to optimize the space available and minimize
the weight impact, as many components are integrated.
FPT Industrial offer for construction applications
•
The F5 series, a 4 cylinder, 3,4 liter Common Rail engine, featuring a
compact layout and a customer oriented design, stands out for low
operating costs and extremely easy maintenance thanks to single engine
side servicing. These benefits are combined with excellent performance,
which allows these engines to be used for the most demanding missions
(e.g. high engine inclination, cold starting at temperatures down to -25°C).
•
The NEF Series includes a 4,5 liter engine with four cylinders and a 6,7
liter engine with six cylinders; they cover a power range from 75 to 210
