CURSOR engines are the result of the unrelenting

research process IVECO devotes to continuous product
improvement.The unrivaled power output standards stem
from cutting edge technologies and effective solutions
providing, with minimum displacement and undisputed
reliability, performance levels that are typical of engines of
far greater size and weight. Their environmental performance, wholly compliant with the requirements set
out by current and future exhaust gas and noise emission regulations, was a primary goal of the design.

A PRODUCT OF THE MOST ADVANCED ENGINE

DESIGN, CREATED BY IVECO EXPERIENCE,
MADE EXCEPTIONALLY EFFICIENT
BY METICULOUS FINE TUNING.

AT THE TOP OF THE PYRAMID

IN 8 TO 13 LITER CATEGORIES

Millions of IVECO engines at work all over the world

in all possible applications are the bedrock of experience
on which the design of this new range is built. CURSOR
engines do not inherit any elements from previous models,
and the choice to redesign them from the ground up has
eliminated any compromise that might lead to an even
minimal reduction in their best performance, as well as
to provide them with exceptional reliability and
durability.

By fully exploiting the potential of modern electronic control

technologies, new tradeoffs were achieved between
performance and efficiency, made evident by the availability
of the highest levels of torque and power in a broad
range of engine rpm. With the adoption of electronically
controlled turbochargers, this characteristic is emphasized
even further, allowing not only highly reduced fuel and
lubrication oil consumption, but veritable operating
economies.

The high technological level of the design, complemented

by cutting edge machining and mounting solutions and
processes, have expanded the range of the operating rpm
of an engine characterized by minimal displacement, high
power and low operating costs.

CURSOR engines adopt solutions able to guarantee

the utmost in installation flexibility and top operating
performance. By making the most of the potential offered
by modern electronic control technologies, already
intrinsically efficient engines were provided with the
ability to customize performance for each specific operating profile. The adoption of variable geometry
turbochargers provides the engines with unequalled
elasticity capabilities and a more effective decompression
exhaust brake. Equipped with turbocompound, the
CURSOR 13 enhances its already considerable performance,
leaving engine component stresses unchanged.The power
takeoffs clutch-coupled to the timing system can be
engaged, even with the engine running. Through the CAN
bus interface, the Central Unit communicates with other
electronic units present in the application to integrate the
requirements of the different systems. The wide availability
of set-up options further enhances versatility.

AN ENVIRONMENTALLY
FRIENDLY ENGINE
IS CREATED

GAS AND ACOUSTIC EMISSION REDUCTION

PRIMARY DESIGN GOAL

The new design allowed for an intrinsically clean engine,

and the meticulous optimization of the combustion process
was made possible by the high efficiency of the injection
system. Compliance with the EPA CARB, EURO and
EC directive standards expected over the next few years
is possible without adopting devices such as exhaust gas
recirculation or gas post-treatment.Total blow-by recirculation
and the perfect combustion achieved in them not only
minimizes hydrocarbon and nitrous oxide emissions, but
also limits the consumptions and concur in the reduction
of the greenhouse effect. The exceptional quietness, 95
dB(A) at maximum power, is assured by the rigid structure
of engine block and sub-block with the adoption of rubber
sealing gaskets on lid and sump. The gradual, progressive
injection control avoids typical Diesel knock and reduces
engine wear, extending its working life.

UNPARALLELED
PERFORMANCE

EXCELLENT SOLUTIONS BRING

OUT THE BEST IN THE ENGINES

EUI pumping injectors with total electronic control,

mounted at the centre of the combustion chambers, able
to operate at pressures exceeding 1600 bar and cross
flow intake ducts are the core reasons for the extraordinary
thermodynamic efficiency and excellent fuel consumption
levels of these engines.The electronic control of the Variable
Geometry Turbocharger, VGT, allows the supercharging
pressures to be independent from engine rpm for constant
torque and power over a wide range of engine rpm. The
effectiveness of the decompression exhaust brake, IVECO
Turbo Brake, has been improved by the joint control of
brake and VGT. The constant electronic monitoring of
environmental conditions and of the engine operation
ensure constant top level performance.

TOTAL ELECTRONIC
CONTROL

Control of all parameters, such as air, fuel and engine

operation by the Electronic Unit, allows for the utmost
flexibility in injection management, driving fuel delivery
as required by the mission profile.

Instantaneous injection management, independent for each

cylinder, is accompanied by control over other possible
engine equipment, such as the variable geometry
turbocharger and the exhaust brake or PTO rpm.

TOP EFFICIENCY IN ENGINE

AND ACCESSORY CONTROL
UNDER ALL OPERATING CONDITIONS

Electronic control also monitors the operating conditions

of the engine and its equipment, providing a user friendly
tool for troubleshooting, to keep performance unchanged
until the engine overhaul.

ENGINE COMPETENCE
FOR EXTRAORDINARY PRODUCT
COMPETITIVENESS

Engine configuration was designed for compactness,

component reduction and accessibility to every part;
the tangible result is the 20% weight reduction with respect
to engines of equal performance. The clean combustion
achieved in the engines and the effectiveness of cooling
and filtering limit lubrication oil deterioration, extending
maintenance intervals to 3,000 hrs. The check of valverocker arm play is set to 6,000 hrs; the automatic tensioning
of the auxiliary organ drive belt excludes the need for
adjustment.The diagnostic check, realized by ECU and used
to store information on the most significant operating
events, allows service centers to plan maintenance
intervals with precision and accuracy.
