ACERT Technology
Lack of a hyphen in the model number indicates an
Engine with ACERT Technology:
Multiple technologies
Varies by engine family
Varies by engine application
Design strategy
What Does ACERT Technology Look Like?
•Uses Cat ET
•Common electronics
from C7 to C32
•Full machine
integration (Canbus,
J1939, etc.)
How is ACERT Technology Different
• Fuel Delivery
• Air Management
• After treatment
• Noise reduction
Electronic Control ADEM 4
• Processing speeds and
memory increased
• New 120 Pin engine
connector
• Retains 70 Pin OEM
connector
• More fuel maps to optimize
ACERT technology
HEUI Fuel Delivery C7-C9
Intake and
exhaust ports on
opposite sides of
the head
Air Management
C27-C32 Cylinder Head
Crossflow design
• Improved breathing
• Reduce pumping loss
• Better combustion
• Improved performance
• Improved power
density
• Improved efficiency
C27, C32 Intake Manifold
Smooth direct airflow
• Reduced air resistance
• Reduce pumping loss
• Enhanced turbulence
in cylinder
• Improved performance
and efficiency

Design Strategy
C15, C32 Connecting Rod
Increase rod diameter
Drilled rod for lubrication
4 bolts improve clamping
Designed for durability
Compliments ACERT
Design Strategy C27, C32
C27, C32 Design Strategy
Leverage C15 / C18 technology
• MEUI fuel system
• Valve train comp.
• Increased PCP designs
• ACERT technology
Benefits of new technology
• Emissions capability
• Fuel efficiency
• Power density
C27, C32 Front Gear Train
Pendulum damper
• Proven design (used
since ’94)
• Used on non-driven
end of cam
• Reduces gear noise
• Dampens cam flex to
maintain optimal
injection timing
Design Strategy C27, C32
Increased compression ratio
Component changes to increase peak
cylinder pressure capability
• C27 - 18:1 compression ratio
• C32 - 16.5:1 compression ratio
Improves cold start characteristics
Improves white smoke clean up time
Optimizes ACERT performance
C27, C32 Rear Gear Train

Is Extra Maintenance Required?
500 hr. oil change interval with CAT DEO
(or oil meeting CAT ECF-1 spec) below
6000 ft. altitude.
250 hr. change interval above 6000 ft.
High load factors and high fuel sulfur
content will affect oil change intervals.
Equipped with Cat’s new high efficiency
oil filter
S.O.S. sampling
