Scania offers Stage V-ready engines

Although Stage V emission standards will not be in force until 2019 but with Scania’s renowned modular product system and its excellence in engineering Scania can offer compliant engines well in advance.

Scania’s new range combines outstanding performance and total operating economy, and features engine-management and emission-control systems developed in-house. The new Stage V engine is based on state-of-the-art technology. All three platforms in the Scania line-up – 9-litre, 13-litre and 16-litre featuring output ranges from 202 kW to 566 kW.

• Advanced engineering lies at the heart of Scania’s well-known features, including robustness, excellent fuel-efficiency, and optimal convenience for operators.

• Scania helps radically reduce OEMs’ engineering requirements for developing Stage V-compliant off-road products.

• Scania’s Stage V solution relies on SCR technology and DPF exhaust aftertreatment.

“Scania’s industrial engines are based on our successful Euro 6 engines for on-road applications,” says Anders Liss, Vice President Sales at Scania Engines. “Our first Euro 6 truck engines were introduced in 2012, and we now have a proven track record in this area.”

Liss continues, “Because Scania is a market leader in developing power-solutions for both off- and on-road transportation, we can ensure that the new Stage V engines meet all requirements. This includes everything from performance and fuel economy to outstanding environmental performance, robustness, and convenience of operation.”

Important requirements for the industrial engine segment are high uptime, generous torque at low revs, excellent fuel economy, and prompt engine response. These demands are all met by the new Scania engine range. Scania has carefully overseen all strategic steps from basic engine development to manufacturing, with the development of the engine-management, fuel-injection and emission-control systems, all carried out in-house.

The new full range of engines is based on the same platform as earlier versions, thus minimising the investment required by OEMs transitioning to Stage V.

Key characteristics of the new engine ranges are:

• Easy-to-service, featuring Scania modular architecture with individual cylinder heads

• Scania XPI common-rail fuel injection

• Scania SCR and DPF exhaust aftertreatment

• Scania Engine Management system

• Scraper ring to prevent carbon build-up at the top of the piston. This is extremely useful in low-load applications.

Engine architecture

The new engines are built on the same platform that Scania uses for all its trucks and buses.

In-house engine management system

To ensure control of all aspects of engine performance, Scania has developed a

new generation of engine management systems. The multitude of functions controlled includes fuel injection, exhaust after treatment, charge air, and engine operating temperature. The control unit is mounted on the cool side of the engine.

Scania exhaust aftertreatment

Scania has for several years used selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology for aftertreatment on trucks and buses. Scania is currently moving towards an SCR-only approach in combination with diesel particulate filters for Scania trucks. The SCR-only solution is now being made available for industrial applications where features such as prompt engine response, generous torque at low revs, and fuel economy are in demand.

New engines available well ahead of time

To enable customers to meet the proposed 2019 deadline with a mature OEM product, Scania is offering prototype Stage V engines for installation well in advance.

Long maintenance intervals

The normal maintenance and oil change interval for the new engine range is 500 hours. Shared components between the different engine series lower the costs of stocking parts and maximise availability. The training of staff is also facilitated by commonality between the different engine ranges.
