摘要

Caterpillar announced January 29 that it’s unveiling a “low-emissions engine-upgrade kit” for select “G3516 LE” petroleum engines in gas-compression applications. “The upgrade kit allows operators to modify existing engines to a lower emission configuration, enabling operation at 0.5 or 1 grams per brake horsepower-hour ‘not to exceed’ NOX [nitrogen-oxide] levels,” according to Cat. “The engine upgrade is an economic, minimally invasive solution that allows the engine to offer the same power and fuel tolerance while simultaneously increasing altitude and turndown capability.
