CUMMINS<br />

VOCATIONAL ’07 ISL<br />

RATINGS UP TO 365 HP IN 8.9-LITER DIESEL<br />

Cummins says that its 2007 ISL, an<br />

8.9-liter diesel, offers the highest powerto-weight<br />

ratio in its class, in<br />

ratings up to 365 hp and<br />

torque of 1,250 lb ft. A new<br />

option allows mixer<br />

operators to monitor the<br />

engine oil level from inside<br />

the cab, eliminating the<br />

need for daily manual<br />

inspection. The ’07 ISL<br />

will also feature an<br />

enhanced high-pressure<br />

common-rail<br />

fuel system that<br />

delivers higher injection<br />

pressures for lower<br />

emissions. It will continue to<br />

feature the same patented,<br />

variable-geometry turbocharger<br />

used in current engines.<br />

The ISL engine will also employ cooled<br />

exhaust gas recirculation technology and<br />

Cummins<br />

2007 ISL<br />

an integrated Enviroguard particulate<br />

filter to meet the U.S. Environmental<br />

Protection Agency emissions standards<br />

for 2007. The combination of cooled-<br />

EGR and exhaust aftertreatment will<br />

be consistent across all<br />

Cummins 2007 onhighway<br />

diesel engines.<br />

The particulate filter<br />

is designed to last the<br />

life of the engine, the<br />

company says. It<br />

automatically<br />

collects and oxidizes<br />

particulates. When<br />

there is not sufficient<br />

heat in the exhaust, the<br />

engine control module actively<br />

controls exhaust-gas temperatures<br />

so the catalytic reaction can take<br />

place. The particulate filter will require<br />

periodic service to remove the ash<br />

content. A typical vocational truck will<br />

need this filter serviced only once every<br />

6,000 hours. See your dealer or visit<br />
