Tonkee Machinery Logo
Engine Model: CAT C18
Manufacturer: Caterpillar
Engine Type: Diesel – fueled, four – stroke, turbocharged (in most configurations) and aftercooled engine, designed for a wide range of industrial applications such as heavy – duty construction equipment, power generation, and marine propulsion.
2. Specifiche di performance
Power Output
Rated Power: The rated power output of the CAT C18 engine can range from approximately 447 KW (600 hp) A 708 KW (950 hp), A seconda della configurazione specifica, application, and operating conditions such as altitude and ambient temperature.
Maximum Power: In some applications with short – term power demands, the engine can provide a higher peak power output, usually through advanced turbocharging and fuel injection strategies.
Speed
Rated RPM: In genere, the rated speed is around 1800 – 2100 revolutions per minute (RPM). This speed range is optimized for efficient power delivery and fuel economy in industrial applications.
3. Mechanical Specifications
Configuration
Cylinder Arrangement: V – 18 configuration (18 cylinders arranged in a V – shape). This design provides a compact footprint for the high – power output and relatively smooth operation due to its inherent balance characteristics.
Bore and Stroke: The bore diameter is usually around 145 mm and the stroke length around 183 mm. These dimensions directly influence the engine's displacement and combustion characteristics.
Spostamento: The displacement of the CAT C18 engine is approximately 34.5 litri. Calculated using the formula V = π/4 × (bore)²× stroke × number of cylinders.
Peso
Dry Weight: The dry weight of the engine (without coolant, fuel, and oil) is approximately 1900 – 2200 kg. The weight can vary depending on additional components such as the turbocharger, aftercooler, and other accessories.
Wet Weight: With all fluids (coolant, fuel, and oil) filled to the recommended levels, the weight can increase to around 2200 – 2500 kg.
Dimensions
Length: Circa 1700 – 1900 mm.
Width: Around 1100 – 1300 mm (including external components like manifolds and turbochargers).
Height: Roughly 1400 – 1600 mm. These dimensions are approximate and can vary based on the specific installation requirements and additional equipment attached.
