Diesel Engine CAT C7

The CAT C7 engine from Caterpillar is a versatile and widely used power unit designed for a broad range of applications, including mobile compressors, generators, drilling rigs, excavators, loaders, and cranes. Its inline 6-cylinder configuration and 7.2-liter displacement deliver between 225 and 360 horsepower, with peak torque reaching up to 925 lb-ft. This makes the engine suitable for both auxiliary and heavy-duty mining equipment.

Engineered with ACERT™ Technology, the CAT C7 features an advanced Common Rail Fuel System, enabling precise electronic fuel control. This boosts efficiency and improves combustion by maintaining optimal injection timing regardless of crankshaft position. The Variable Nozzle Turbocharger ensures efficient airflow and contributes to increased power and torque across a wide RPM range.

For cleaner operation, the Clean Gas Induction (CGI) system recirculates post-treatment exhaust gases back into the combustion chamber after filtration, enhancing fuel economy and reducing emissions. A diesel particulate filter with self-regeneration ensures low-maintenance emission control in all operating conditions.

Key Advantages

  • Broad compatibility with drilling, excavation, and auxiliary equipment
  • Efficient turbocharging and intercooling for better performance
  • Advanced Common Rail fuel injection with intelligent electronic regulation ensures maximum fuel efficiency
  • CGI and particulate filtration systems ensure environmental compliance
  • Designed for extended operation, the engine offers impressive durability with a B50 lifespan reaching approximately 500,000 miles
