Designed for off-highway applications in both static and mobile industrial equipment and generators, JCB’s new engines are available in four power nodes spanning from 81kW (108hp) – 129kW (173hp) and boost peak torque outputs from 516Nm to 690Nm.
Building on the hugely successful transition to Stage V power in the <56kW range with the 430 engine, the new higher powered 448 models feature the same highly efficient performance with a simple, flexible aftertreatment solution and common customer connection points to enable easy integration with a wide range of OEM equipment designs.
The engine packages have been engineered to be as small as possible while featuring engine mounted aftertreatment – which comprises a diesel oxidation catalyst with a selective catalytic reduction urea injection system for NOx reduction as standard, to simplify engine integration. Exhaust aftertreatment can also be supplied loose for bespoke installations where height limitations call for an alternative to the engine-mounted arrangement.
The development of these Stage V 448 units will enable JCB Power Systems to continue to support new and existing customers in off highway applications across markets with Stage V regulations and then further territories as emissions legislation evolves.
The new Stage V range builds upon its predecessor, the 448 JCB engine, proven in OEM installations across Europe, North American and the global market. Efficiency is the key focus and the new models deliver low fuel consumption, thus lowering CO2 and other exhaust emissions.
The versatility of these engines makes them suitable for a wide range of uses, from propulsion of off-highway equipment to the mechanical power behind a variety of stationary equipment. They are ideal for heavy duty environments due to the high power density of the engines, with its robust design withstanding the environmental factors that are seen in these applications – such as dust and vibration.
