Milton CAT 24M - Manual (Page 8)

ACERT™ Technology. ACERT™
Technology allows Cat engines to supply
more power per unit of displacement
without causing premature wear.
This breakthrough technology reduces
emissions during the combustion process
by using advanced technology in the
air and fuel systems, in conjunction
with integrated electronics. ACERT
Technology enhances overall engine
performance while dramatically
reducing exhaust emissions. Fuel Delivery. The C18 engine with
ACERT Technology uses multiple
injection fuel delivery to precisely shape
the combustion cycle. Several small
ignitions lower combustion chamber
temperatures, generate fewer emissions
and optimize fuel combustion. Bottom
line: more work output for your fuel cost.
Superior Lugging Performance.
The Cat C18 engine meets specific
performance requirements for 24M
applications. Its superior torque and
lugging capability can pull through
sudden, short-term increases in loads,
maintaining consistent, desirable
grading speeds to get the work done
faster without downshifting.
Hydraulic Demand Fan. The hydraulic
demand fan automatically adjusts
cooling fan speed according to engine
cooling requirements. This system
reduces demands on the engine, putting
more horsepower to the ground and
improving fuel efficiency.
Compression Brake. The optional
three phase compression brake enables
higher travel speeds downhill, while
reducing wear on brake components.
This improves overall productivity
and lowers maintenance costs.
Exhaust Emissions Compliant.
The Cat C18 with ACERT Technology
meets or exceeds all U.S. EPA Tier 3
and European Union Stage IIIa
emissions control standards.
Ether Starting Aid. This standard feature
helps cold-weather startups in extreme
temperatures. The system monitors engine
coolant temperature to prevent ether
from being injected into a hot engine.
