Kubota will introduce the new 5-litre engine “V5009” at Conexpo, which will be held at Las Vegas, Nevada, USA in March 2017.
Mass production will start from 2020, and the engineering support work starts before to match the application. This engine will be supplied to manufacturer for construction and industrial machine.
Background
As the awareness for the conservation of the global environment has increased, emission standards for industrial engines have become more stringent. All industrial machinery manufacturers are now required to build their machine with emission certified engines, or to adopt after treatment device in regard to the required emission level. Kubota has taken measures to comply with the various needs from those manufacturers, to become top chosen under 100hp and decided to enforce and expand the line up to 200hp class.
Emission Certification
Kubota has been developing the engine that meets the latest emission regulation in United States, Europe and Japan. Kubota has started development and production of engines with the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) before others, which is necessary technology to comply with the most stringent requirement, EU Stage V regulation. V5009 will be ready for the new emission EU Stage V regulation that starts from 2019/2020, which limits particulate numbers.
Outline and Features of V5009 Engine
- High performance with Low Fuel Consumption
Not only optimising the combustion for the high output but also achieving the top level of low fuel consumption compared to other engines in the same power range.
- Compact design with the 4 cylinder
| Displacement | Cylinder | Output* | After treatment |
| 5.0L | 4 | 157.3kW | DPF** + SCR*** |
*Gross intermittent SAE J1995 ***DPF= Diesel Particulate Filter ***SCR= Selective Catalytic Reduction
- Flexibility of engineering design and easy maintenance
V5009 has a variety of Power Take Off (PTO) options and features for the easy maintenance.
New Concept ‘Kubota’, the Answer
By providing the seamless line up extending to 200HP class and announcement before the start of the production, which will support the engineering work for manufacturers, Kubota will give the assurance and is serious to be the answer to your requirement.
