Bore Size
The diameter of the cylinder Measured in inches or millimeters
Stroke
How far the piston moves from TDC to BDC Equal to twice the crank radius
Compression Ratio
Ratio between the cylinder volume with the piston at BDC and the volume with the piston at TDC
Compression ratio of our engines are approximately a 16:1 (non-ACERT) and 18:1 (ACERT)
Displacement
Engine size is expressed in liters or cubic inches
Horsepower
Horsepower is the rate of doing work (how quickly a force is applied through a distance)

Connecting Rod
A connecting rod connects the piston to the crankshaft
Crankshaft
Rod Bearing Journals
Front
Rear
Web Main Bearing Journals Counterweights There are 2 rotations of the crankshaft for each 4 stroke cycle!
Cylinder Block
The cylinder block is the central component of any engine It houses the components that make up the Serious Nucleus of the engine
Turbocharger
An exhaust driven air compressor Impeller on the left Turbine on the right Connecting shaft, free floating bearings, oil lubricated center housing
Causes of Premature Wear or Failure Poor oil quality Dirt ingestion Hot engine shut down
The wastegate is opened by the high pressure boost in the compressor side of the turbo. Some of the exhaust gas then bypasses the turbine and escapes or wastes to the exhaust stack.
Small turbo, No wastegate
Wastegate
Boost
Wastegate Actuator Spins up quicker for good engine response Regulates turbo speed & prevents over-speeding
Engine Load
Aftercooling
Heat exchanger for inlet air Series of metal tubes through which hot inlet air flows
Heat from the air flowing from the tubes is absorbed through the tube walls and carried away
2 types Air to air (ATAAC) Jacket water (JWAC)
Water Pump
Flow of the coolant begins at the water pump Pump impeller creates the flow Water pumps are gear or belt driven Water pump seals Separates engine oil from coolant
Oil Cooler
Engine coolant flows from the water pump directly into the oil cooler Oil carries heat away from critical engine parts Heat is transferred from the oil to the engine coolant
Oil Cooler
Coolant flows through copper tubes in the oil cooler housing Oil flows around the outside of the tubes Scale build-up caused by improper cooling system maintenance can be cleaned out of tubes
Engine components
Air compressor
most cooling system problems can be avoided with proper maintenance practices!
Cooling Systems
Coolant flows around cylinder liners Absorbs heat from the combustion chamber Prevents breakdown of oil film between pistons and liners
Cooling Systems
Coolant flows through passages in the cylinder block into the cylinder head Water seals between the head and block prevent coolant leaks Some engines have water ferrules to direct coolant to critical areas

End Injection
MUI System
A unit injector is positioned above each cylinder A mechanically actuated governor controls fuel rate (scroll metered) with flyweights and springs Timing is fixed
EUI System
A unit injector is positioned above each cylinder An Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls fuel rate and timing Injectors are mechanically actuated by a camshaft
Fuel flows into the injector through the fill / spill port, past the solenoid valve and into the barrel
EUI - Injection
On a signal from the ECM, the solenoid closes the fuel valve Pressure elevates at the tip to the 5,500 psi needed to unseat the valve Injection begins
EUI - Injection
Fuel continues to inject until the ECM signals the solenoid to open the valve Injection timing and duration is controlled by the ECM
HEUI System
A unit injector is positioned above each cylinder An Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls fuel rate, timing, and injection pressure The injector is hydraulically actuated

What is Remanufacturing?
Differences between RepairRebuildRemanufacture
Repair
Usually simple Fixes only a specific problem May not use genuine CAT parts depending on labor source.
Rebuild
Usually retains the component identity More than a simple repair Usually done by dealer, customer or re-builder Restores to near original condition May not use genuine Cat parts Re-builder assumes the warranty liability Requires investments in tools, equip., training, etc Rebuild and return or exchange turnaround time involved
Remanufacture
Consistent factory environment Process and quality control Upgrades to latest engineering changes Harvest components (looses its original identity) Uses 100% genuine Cat parts Cat Reman carries standard parts warranty Requires cores exchange only
