The Cat 329D engine, C7 with ACERT technology delivers higher engine power and runs at lower speeds, resulting in improved fuel efficiency and reduced wear. Cat C7 uses electronic controls to manage the mechanical electronic unit injector (MEUI) system. Multi-point injection fuel delivery provides high-precision injection. Precisely tailoring the combustion cycle can reduce the temperature of the combustion chamber, reduce emissions and obtain the best combustion efficiency. This can convert fuel cost inputs into higher output.
