Cat C15 Engine with ACERT™ Technology
A combination of proven systems and innovative new technologies, ACERT engines optimize
performance while meeting EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIa engine exhaust emission regulations.
Cylinder Head and Piston Technology.
The C15 ACERT engine has a cross-
flow cylinder head with refined port
geometry, which provides improved
breathing and better combustion.
The Monotherm/steel pistons have
a forged steel design, which offers
high strength, light weight and tighter
tolerances. The result is better oil
control, minimal blow-by and long
liner life.
Advanced Diesel Engine Management
(ADEM) A4 Engine Controller.
The ADEM™ A4 electronic control
module manages fuel delivery to get
the best performance per liter or gallon
of fuel used. The engine management
system provides flexible fuel mapping,
allowing the engine to respond quickly
to varying application needs. It tracks
engine and machine conditions while
keeping the engine operating at peak
efficiency.
Fuel Delivery. Multiple injection
fuel delivery involves a high degree
of precision. Precisely shaping the
combustion cycle lowers combustion
chamber temperatures, generating
fewer emissions and optimizing fuel
combustion. This translates into more
ACERT Technology. The Cat® C15
ACERT™ engine introduces a series of
evolutionary, incremental improvements
that provide breakthrough engine
technology built on systems and
components developed by Caterpillar
with proven reliability. The technology
capitalizes on Cat expertise in four core
engine systems: fuel, air, electronics
and after treatment. ACERT technology
is a unique and revolutionary systems
solution that enables Cat engines to
meet today’s clean air regulations, thus
establishing the building blocks for
attaining tomorrow’s more stringent
standards.
C15 Block. The one-piece, gray iron
block features generous ribbing for
stiffness and heavy bearing bulkheads
for rigidity and strength as the crankshaft
turns. Straight O-ring connection points
reduce the loss of engine oil and fluids.

Performance and Productivity – Power Train
Integrated power train with more power, greater performance and lower fuel consumption –
the power to do more work.
Mechanically Actuated Electronic Unit
Injection (MEUI). A highly evolved fuel
system with a proven record of reliability
in the field. It combines the technical
advancement of an electronic control
system with the simplicity of direct
mechanically controlled unit fuel
injection. It excels in its ability to control
injection pressure over the entire engine
operating speed range. These features
allow the C15 to have complete control
over injection timing, duration and
pressure.
Air-to-Air Aftercooling (ATAAC).
ATAAC keeps air intake temperatures
down and, in concert with the tight
tolerance combustion chamber
components, maximizes fuel efficiency
and minimizes emissions. Significant
improvements in air flow are generated
by a turbocharger, unique cross-flow
head and a single overhead camshaft.
Controlled Throttle Shifting (CTS).
Significantly reduces power train stress
and clutch wear by controlling engine
speed, torque converter lock-up and
transmission clutch engagements.
Caterpillar Engine Compression Brake.
Provides extra braking effort on downhill
grades. It is an excellent match for the
C15 ACERT engine, turning it into a
power absorbing air compressor. It has
very fast response time and produces
no additional heat, so it can be used
continuously.
Wastegate Turbocharging.
Single wastegate turbocharger
provides higher boost over a wide range,
outstanding low-end performance with
improved peak torque and engine
response.
Engine Overspeed Inhibitor. Electronic
Engine Overspeed Inhibitor. Electronic
Transmission Control (ETC) protects
against engine overspeeding by shifting
the transmission up one gear at specified
rpm settings. If the transmission is in its
highest gear, torque converter lockup
disengages.
Usable Rimpull. Power train components
work together to offer more usable
rimpull at higher speeds on effective
grades. In first gear, the torque converter
overcomes grade resistance by sending
more torque to the wheels and preventing
engine lugging. On downhill grades, the
engine compression brake works like
a brake by slowing the machine.
Electronic Transmission. The Caterpillar
seven-speed electronically controlled
transmission is designed specifically for
the articulated truck and its applications.
It features anti-hunt shift shift strategy
for speed continuity. It also incorporates
Individual Clutch Modulation (ICM)
to ensure constant shift times even
when the oil is cold.
Directional Shift Management.
Regulates engine speed during directional
shifts to prevent damage caused by
high-speed directional changes.
Hydraulic Fan. The remote-mounted
hydraulic fan is temperature sensitive
providing variable speeds when needed,
which minimizes power requirements.
The result is more power to the ground
and faster cycle times.
Two Reverse Gears. The transmission
arrangement provides a second reverse
gear for improved performance when
operating in longer rear hauling
applications. First gear reverse is now
of a lower ratio for increased rimpull
on wet or steep grades.
Programmable Top Gear Selection.
Electronic Transmission Control lets
you electronically limit top gear selection
without the use of additional service
tooling or mechanical limiting of
the shift cane.

To determine performance, read from
Gross Weight down to % Effective Grade.
Effective Grade equals actual % favorable
grade plus 1% for each 10 kg/metric ton
(20 lb/ton) of Rolling Resistance. From this
point, read horizontally to the curve with
the highest attainable speed range. Then, go
down to Maximum Speed. Retarding effect
on these curves represents full application of
the retarder.
