Engine Features
Improved Shift Strategy
Tier 3 transmission software changes incorporate an anti-hunt

strategy and lower shift point parameters. Lowered by
approximately 200 rpm these new shift points allow smoother
shifting for improved performance due to faster hauling, in
addition, there is the added advantage of improved fuel usage and
reduced in-cab noise levels.

Engine Features
Higher Power Density and Engine Durability

With the change from Tier 2 engines to Tier 3 engines, Caterpillar
offers engines with ACERT technology with larger displacement
configurations and air-to-air after cooling while providing additional
horsepower. Larger displacement contributes to longer life engines,
extended repair and maintenance intervals, lower repair and
maintenance costs resulting in lower cost per ton. Caterpillar can
attribute approximately 750 hours of improvement to engine durability
directly related to lower engine speeds and larger displacement
engines.

The C15 ACERT electronic unit

injectors require calibration after
installation or after an ECM
replacement


Timing calibration is normally performed

after the following procedures:
1. ECM replacement
2. High Speed/Timing Sensor replacement
3. Timing Wheel replacement




Ether Start Control

Continous instead of one shot. No start control relay.
The ECM energizes the ether solenoid in a The ether injection system is enabled when all
continuous flow for a predetermined amount of of the following conditions occur:
time that is based on the coolant temperature
• Engine speed is 0 rpm.
and the intake manifold air temperature.
• Coolant temperature or intake manifold air
temperature is less than 0 °C (32 °F).










PRESSURE CALCULATIONS
MEASUREMENT MEASURED BY RESULT
1. Atmospheric pressure Atmospheric sensor Ambient press (absolute)
2. Air filter differential Atmospheric - turbo inlet Filter D pressure
3. Boost Turbo outlet – atmospheric Boost (gauge press)
4. Manifold press. Abs. Turbo outlet sensor Boost (absolute press)
5. Oil pressure Oil press - atmospheric Oil press (gauge press
These measurements are used to determine:
1. Automatic Altitude Compensation
2. Automatic Air Filter Compensation and Restriction Indication(if so equipped)
3. ET Boost Measurement
4. Caterpillar Monitoring System Oil Pressure Indication(Lubrication)
5. Altitude
NOTE: D pressure = differential pressure

Elevated Idle Speed Feature

The elevated idle speed feature allows the operator to maintain an engine speed that is
between the values of the low idle and high idle without the need for operator input. This
feature allows the engine to run at elevated idle for extended periods while an implement such
as a water pump is being operated.
The elevated idle speed can be set to any value between low idle and high idle, but the default
value is 1500RPM. The elevated idle speed is set through the Configuration Window in
Electronic Technician.
The elevated idle speed feature will be ON when all of the following conditions are met.
•The accelerator control is in the low idle position.
•The transmission is in NEUTRAL.
•The parking brake is ON.
The elevated idle speed feature will be OFF when any of the following conditions are met.
•The input from the accelerator control is greater than 11%.
•The transmission is not in NEUTRAL.
•The parking brake is OFF.

Caterpillar Engine Compression Brake for 735 & 740
With the introduction of the Caterpillar C15 ACERT engine

arrangement comes the Caterpillar Engine Compression Brake. A
system specifically designed and manufactured by Caterpillar for
excellent retardation capabilities. Engine mounted, the engine
compression brake is a system that is used to slow the machine
during descents on grades or when coming to a stop prior to any
service brake application. The Caterpillar Engine Compression
Brake offers an additional 60 braking horse power at 1600 rpm and
an additional 20 brake horse power at 2300 rpm compared to the
Tier 2 engine compression brake offering.

Without a CAT Compression Brake

(1) The intake valve opens and air is forced into the cylinder by boost pressure from the
turbocharger.
(2) Air is compressed by the engine piston. The energy required to compress this air is
produced by the vehicle's driving wheels.
(3) When the piston passes over top dead center and begins its downward stroke, the
energy is returned to the piston (and to the driving wheels). Essentially no energy is
absorbed and no net retarding work is done.
(4) Normal exhaust stroke.

With a CAT Compression Brake
(1A) The intake valve opens and air is forced into the cylinder by boost pressure from the
turbocharger.
(2A) Air is compressed to approximately 500PSI by the engine piston. The energy required to
compress this air is produced by the vehicle's driving wheels. Near top dead center, the
Compression Brake opens the exhaust valves, venting the high pressure air and dissipating the
stored energy through the exhaust system.
(3A) On the downward stroke, essentially no energy is returned to the piston (and to the driving
wheels). There is a loss of energy. This loss is how the retarding work is done.
(4A) Normal exhaust stroke.
