Cummins Inc. recently launched a Tier 4 website to provide equipment users with an early insight into the performance and operation of field test installations ahead of the January 2011 effect date for EPA Tier 4 Interim and EU Stage IIIB low emissions engines above 173-hp (129-kW).
Located at www.tier4.info, the website content is based on more than 40,000 hours accumulated experience of Tier-4-powered equipment on customer field tests and evaluation tests by equipment manufacturers.
“The clear message from our field test customers is that they prefer using equipment repowered with Cummins Tier 4 engines, compared with the equivalent Tier 3 engines they replaced,” said Hugh Foden, executive director of Cummins Off-Highway Business.
“The www.tier4.info website provides an ideal way of sharing the experiences of Cummins field test equipment operators with others in the industry who would like to understand more about the performance of Tier-4-powered equipment compared with Tier 3,” said Foden.
The website will continue to be populated with additional information as Cummins approaches the milestone of 100 completed Tier-4 installations, varying from wheeled loaders to a yard spotter, snow groomer and excavators to a rock drill.
The website is designed to provide an educational resource for OEM dealers, rental companies and equipment operators. Visitors to the website can learn about the next generation technology, including details about Cummins exhaust aftertreatment and direct flow air cleaner.
Other features of the website include a customer testimonial video, the latest product brochures, regulatory details and a Tier-4 fuel saver calculator.
Cummins Inc. is a corporation of complementary business units that design, manufacture, distribute and service engines and related technologies, including fuel systems, controls, air handling, filtration, emission solutions and electrical power generation systems.
