From the frozen snow plains of Hulun Buir to the vast highlands of E'la Mountain, the complex road conditions of ice and snow, low temperatures and oxygen deficiency pose a challenge. How does the Cummins 16N natural gas engine handle extreme transportation environments with its hexagonal strength?
Cold start in low temperatures without assistance
In the cold winter mornings or on the high plateau, cold starting used to be a headache for truck drivers. The Cummins 16N natural gas engine adopts innovative mixed intake technology and precise control of the air-fuel ratio, ensuring stable air-fuel mixture in thin air. In high-altitude and cold environments, cold starting does not require assistance.
High power in high altitude
The winding mountain roads, continuous steep climbs and the thin oxygen environment of the plateau require only strong power to ensure transportation efficiency.
16N engine
Maximum planned power: up to 720 horsepower
Maximum torque: 3600 Nm
Equipped with a dedicated turbocharging system for natural gas engines, through the precise coordination of deep Miller cycle and optimal valve timing, it ensures rapid response in transient conditions while maintaining high power output. In high-altitude and extremely cold conditions, it can handle steep slopes and acceleration with ease.
In addition, with a braking power of up to 400kW and the application of dynamic downhill braking control system, driving is safer and more comfortable.
Online system status, reliable in all aspects
The new smart brain 3.0 enables deep interaction between the engine, transmission and after-treatment system. Real-time combustion state detection and dynamic adjustment ensure high-precision torque output. Intelligent gear selection matches the engine's optimal economic zone, allowing smart navigation through complex road conditions and truly achieving tailoring to the road.
Intelligent diagnostic technology, combined with digital tools such as e-Cummins, transforms passive services into proactive prevention, ensuring high availability.
Whether it's the oxygen deficiency of the plateau or the bone-chilling cold, we adhere to stricter standards in the manufacturing of every component and verification of every process to help customers win with efficiency and reliability.
