Perkins recently launched its new production 1706J-E93TA model – a 9.3 litre industrial diesel engine at Intermat, Paris – were Stage V. New Perkins 1706J-E93TA EU Stage V/U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final engine, which is now in production.

For three years, the 9.3L offering has completed a rigorous pilot and validation program, accumulating more than 100,000 hours in laboratory environments and in dozens of customer machines in the field. “It is great to see this engine performing exactly as it was designed to,” says James Schnuriger, Perkins Marketing Manager for 9-13L platforms. “The high-power output of up to 340 kW makes this engine ideal for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) wanting to downsize from larger 10-13 L engines.”

Making history with the widest range introduction

“The Perkins EU Stage V range has more models from one manufacturer than any other, so the 9.3 litre is just the beginning,” says Oliver Lythgoe, Perkins Product Concept Marketing Manager. Perkins will have 14 different engine sizes from 0.5 - 18 L and provide tailored solutions to customers to deliver 6 – 470 kW of power. Innovation and product investments never stop at Perkins. “Even after the emissions introduction, we will continue to release new models and add new features to our range,” Lythgoe says. “This gives our OEM customers power solutions that are adapted to their machines and their business models.” Real value - more than emissions Perkins has made significant investment in its EU Stage V program with the introduction of six new engine models to extend its power range with the Perkins 1700 Series, 2200, 2400, 2600 and 2800 Series and the Perkins Syncro 2.8 L and 3.6 L, which were on display at Intermat.

As Perkins products have continued to evolve, considerable upgrades have been made to offer more value to OEMs and end users. One example is the Perkins Sycnro 1.7 L, where the torque has been increased by 34% and the power by 24%, making it the most power dense (kW/L) product in its class.

Reliable off-highway technology

Meeting the EU Stage V emissions regulations has not been particularly challenging for Perkins. “The main difference between Stage IV and Stage V has been the particle number count, which is driving particle filtration exhaust aftertreatment for all engines between 19 - 560 kW,” Lythgoe says. “Although this is new technology for some companies, Perkins has been using this technology in off-highway machines for many years. In fact, we have powered more than 500,000 machines running on construction sites, which have accrued nearly 900 million hours, all fitted with this type of aftertreatment.”
