Pulse width
The variation of the signal is in response to a change
in some specific system of the equipment. The
ECM sees the input sensor signal as information
about the condition, environment, or operation of the
equipment.

A electronic control module (ECM) receives the


input signals. Electronic circuits inside the control
component evaluate the signals from the input
components. These electronic circuits also supply
electrical energy to the output components of the
system. The electrical energy that is supplied to
the output components is based on predetermined
combinations of input signal values.

An output component is one that is operated by a


control module. The output component receives
electrical energy from the control component. The
output component uses that electrical energy in one
of two ways. The output component can use that
electrical energy in order to perform work. The output
component can use that electrical energy in order to
provide information.

Fuel Injection Electronic Unit Injector Mechanism


The ECM controls the amount of fuel that is injected
by varying the signals that are sent to the injectors.
The ECM sends a high voltage signal to the solenoid
in order to energize the solenoid. The injectors
will inject fuel only while the injector solenoid is
energized. By controlling the timing and the duration
of the voltage signal, the ECM can control injection
timing and the amount of fuel that is injected.

The ECM sets certain limits on the amount of fuel that


can be injected. FRC is a limit which controls the
amount of air and of fuel for the purpose of emission
control. This limit is based on the boost pressure.
When the ECM senses a higher boost pressure, the
ECM increases the FRC limit. Rated Fuel Pos is
a limit that is based on the horsepower rating of the
engine. This is similar to the rack stops and to the
torque spring on a mechanically governed engine.
Rated Fuel Pos provides horsepower and torque
curves for a specific engine family and for a specific
engine rating. All of these limits are programmed g01092960

programmable by the service technician. Typical examples of Electronic Unit Injector fuel systems.

for each cylinder. Two lobes operate the inlet and
exhaust valves, and the other lobe operates the
unit injector mechanism. Force is transferred from
the unit injector lobe on the camshaft through the
lifter to the pushrod (4). The force of the pushrod
is transferred through rocker arm assembly (2) and
to the top of the unit injector. The adjusting nut (1)
allows setting of the unit injector adjustment. Refer to
Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, Electronic
Unit Injector - Adjust for the correct setting of the
unit injector adjustment.

Systems Operation Section

Electronic Unit Injector As the electronic unit injector mechanism transfers


the force to the top of the electronic unit injector,
spring (1) is compressed and plunger (4) is driven
downward. This action displaces fuel through the
valve in solenoid valve assembly (3), and into the
return manifold to the fuel tank. As the plunger travels
downward, the passage in barrel (5) is closed by the
outside diameter of the plunger. The passages within
body (10) and along check valve (11) to the injector
tip already contain fuel for injection. After the passage
in the plunger barrel is closed, the injector is ready for
injection at any time. The start of injection relies on
the software in the Electronic Control Module (ECM).

When the solenoid valve assembly is energized


from a signal across solenoid connection (2), the
valve closes and fuel pressure is elevated in the
injector tip. Injection begins at 34500 1900 kPa
(5000 275 psi) as the force of spring (8) above
spacer (9) is overcome. The check valve begins
to lift from the valve seat. The pressure continues
to rise as the plunger cycles through a full stroke.
After the correct amount of fuel has been discharged
into the cylinder, the ECM removes the signal to the
solenoid connection. The solenoid valve assembly
is de-energized and the valve in the solenoid valve
assembly is opened. The high pressure fuel is then
dumped through the spill port and into the fuel return
manifold. The fuel is then returned to the fuel tank.
The check valve in the injector tip seats as the
pressure in the tip decreases.

The duration of injection meters the fuel that is


consumed during the fuel injection process. Injection
duration is controlled by the governor logic that is

The coolant is pumped through engine oil cooler Temperature Regulator Housing
(9). The coolant then flows to the supply manifold.
The supply manifold, which is located in the cylinder
block, distributes coolant around the upper portion
of the cylinder liners. At each cylinder, the coolant
flows from the cylinder liner to the cylinder head.
The cylinder head is divided into single cylinder
cooling sections. In the cylinder head, the coolant
flows across the center of the cylinder and across
the injector seat boss. At the center of the cylinder,
the coolant flows around the injector sleeve over
the exhaust port. The coolant then exits into return
manifold (3). The return manifold collects the
coolant from each cylinder and the return manifold
directs the flow to temperature regulator housing
(5). When the coolant temperature regulator is
in the closed position, the coolant flows through
the coolant temperature regulator. This allows the
coolant to flow directly back to the water pump for
recirculation by bypassing the radiator. When the
coolant temperature regulator is in the open position,
the coolant is directed through the radiator and back
to the water pump inlet. g01085915

to open directing some of the coolant to the radiator
and bypassing the remainder to the water pump inlet.
At the full operating temperature of the engine, the
coolant temperature regulator moves to the open
position. This allows all the coolant flow to be directed
to the radiator. The coolant then goes to the water
pump. This route provides the maximum heat release
from the coolant. A vent line is recommended from
the manifold to the radiator overflow tank in order to
provide venting for the cooling system.

Unlike many electronic systems of the past, this


engine is tolerant to common external sources of
electrical noise. Buzzers that use electrical energy
can cause disruptions in the power supply. If buzzers
are used anywhere on the machine, the engine
electronics should be powered directly from the
battery system through a dedicated relay. The engine
electronics should not be powered through a common
power bus with other keyswitch activated devices.

Systems Operation Section

The rotor assembly has many magnetic poles that


look like fingers with air space between each of the
opposite poles. The poles have residual magnetism.
The residual magnetism produces a small magnetic
field between the poles. As the rotor assembly
begins to turn between the field winding and the
stator windings, a small amount of alternating current
(AC) is produced. The AC current is produced in the
stator windings from the small magnetic field. The
AC current is changed to direct current (DC) when
the AC current passes through the diodes of the
rectifier bridge. The current is used for the following
applications:

increased. As the magnetic field becomes stronger,
more AC current is produced in the stator windings. Starting System Components
The increased speed of the rotor assembly also
increases the current and voltage output of the
alternator.
Starting Solenoid

The voltage regulator is a solid-state electronic


switch. The voltage regulator senses the voltage in
the system. The voltage regulator switches ON and
OFF many times per second in order to control the
field current for the alternator. The alternator uses
the field current in order to generate the required
voltage output.

NOTICE
Never operate the alternator without the battery in the
circuit. Making or breaking an alternator connection
with heavy load on the circuit can cause damage to
the regulator.

Systems Operation Section

When two sets of solenoid windings are used, the


windings are called the hold-in winding and the
pull-in winding. Both sets of windings have the same
number of turns around the cylinder, but the pull-in
winding uses a wire with a larger diameter. The wire
with a larger diameter produces a greater magnetic
field (1). When the start switch is closed, part of the
current flows from the battery through the hold-in
windings. The rest of the current flows through the
pull-in windings to the motor terminal. The current
then flows through the motor to ground. Solenoid
(2)is fully activated when the connection across the
battery and the motor terminal is complete. When
solenoid (2) is fully activated, the current is shut

The starting solenoid (2) is an electromagnetic switch


that performs the following basic operations:

The starting solenoid (2) closes the high current


starting motor circuit with a low current start switch
circuit.

The starting solenoid (2) engages the pinion of the


starting motor (4) with the ring gear.

Solenoid (2) has windings (one or two sets) around


a hollow cylinder. A plunger that is spring loaded is
inside the cylinder. The plunger can move forward
and backward. When the start switch is closed and
electricity is sent through the windings, a magnetic
field (1) is made. The magnetic field (1) pulls the
plunger forward in the cylinder. This moves the shift
lever in order to engage the pinion drive gear with the
ring gear. The front end of the plunger then makes
contact across the battery and motor terminals of
solenoid (2). Next, the starting motor begins to turn
the flywheel of the engine.

When the start switch is opened, current no longer


flows through the windings. The spring now pushes
the plunger back to the original position. At the same
time, the spring moves the pinion gear away from
the flywheel.

Air Inlet Restriction


There will be a reduction in the performance of the
engine if there is a restriction in the air inlet system.

1. Inspect the engine air cleaner inlet and ducting


in order to ensure that the passageway is not
blocked or collapsed.

2. Inspect the engine air cleaner element. Replace


a dirty engine air cleaner element with a clean
engine air cleaner element.

3. Check for dirt tracks on the clean side of the


engine air cleaner element. If dirt tracks are
observed, contaminants are flowing past the
engine air cleaner element and/or the seal for the
engine air cleaner element.

Hot engine components can cause injury from


burns. Before performing maintenance on the
engine, allow the engine and the components to
cool.

Making contact with a running engine can cause


burns from hot parts and can cause injury from
rotating parts.

When working on an engine that is running, avoid


contact with hot parts and rotating parts.
