MINIMUM PRE-INSTALLATION COMPATIBILITY (PIC) ASSESSMENT (Stationary Engines)

Form Number: SEC-EN-F-014

  • General Information

  • MM slash DD slash YYYY
  • CANDIDATE ENGINE EVALUATION

    (For Stationary Engines the PIC can be performed after instillation of the CRT(+).
  • 1) Non-EGR
    2) PM output of 0.2 g/hp-hr or less
    3) NOx/PM ratio of 16 or more
    This information is available on the EPA or CARB Engine Certification databases or in the engine specifications from the engine manufacturer. In addition, the engine family may appear on the CARB approved verified engine family list found on this web site: http://www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/verdev/vt/stationary.htm
  • Max exhaust temp. from engine does not exceed 600°C (1112°F)
  • ACTIVE Engine Codes (related to engine performance and/or emissions) Must be diagnosed with corrective action repairs to clear the codes. – see APPENDIX I : Section A
  • It is strongly recommended that the installer obtain a copy of the engine ECM printout showing engine fault history. Retain copy and address relevant faults.
  • Must appear to be uncontaminated (not black or cloudy with visible contaminates): Document with a photograph – see APPENDIX I: Section B
  • Is there any engine miss/knock/abnormal noise present? Describe and document:
  • Check all that apply and document with supporting photographs and document discrepancies (significant leaks or defects require documented repair):
  • Note:

    After the CRT(+) has been installed, the following procedure must be followed to document the required load points:
  • 1) Install the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst and Filters into the DPF, and ensure that the CRTdm has been installed and is operating properly.
    2) Run the engine at zero load until a steady exhaust temperature is reached. The temperature must be monitored by the Johnson Matthey supplied thermocouple and CRTdm, measuring at the inlet flange of the CRT(+) device.
    3) Record the engine Load, and Backpressure & Temperature (from the CRTdm), on this form.
  • 1) Increase the load until an exhaust temperature of 370°C (698°F) is reached. The temperature must be monitored by the Johnson Matthey supplied thermocouple and CRTdm, measuring at the inlet flange of the CRT(+) device.
    2) Record the engine Load, and Backpressure & Temperature (from the CRTdm), on this form.
    Refer to Owner’s Manual section on “Regeneration of Filters”.
  • IMPORTANT NOTES:

    • All PIC items 1 through 7 must be performed no more than 15 days prior to installation.
    • All PIC data must be retained by installing distributor for the warranty period of the JM emission control device.
    • Any change in the duty cycle (i.e. pattern of use) used to measure the exhaust gas temperature profile of the candidate engine may cause the diesel emissions control strategy to fail to meet the requirements of the strategy’s Executive Order and may adversely affect the performance of the strategy, including but not limited to premature filter failure / plugging.
    • The Pre-Installation Compatibility Assessment performed thereunder, is not an exhaustive evaluation of all potential engine issues that may adversely affect the operation of an installed diesel emission control strategy and shall not be construed as expanding the warranty coverage provided by JMI to the owner of the installed diesel emission control strategy.
  • (“PASS” is achieved when all PIC items 1-7 are “PASS” and documented and engine and CRTdm data is recorded for items 8a, and 8b)
  • MM slash DD slash YYYY
  • END USER MAINTENANCE EVALUATION

  • Customer acknowledges compliance responsibilities which include:
    • Use of ULSD fuel
    • Use of CJ-4 oil (see NOTE 1)
    • Fuel additives are not to be used
    • Blended fuel requires JM approval.
    • Oil consumption must not exceed engine manufacturers specification
    • Has a maintenance program for compliance with engine manufacturer’s including overhaul schedules and regeneration.
  • IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS:

    • Lube oil, or other oil must not be mixed with fuel.
    • Proper engine and CRT(+) maintenance is critical for the proper functioning of the JM emission control device. The owner/operator of the engine is strongly advised to adhere to all good engine and CRT(+) maintenance practices. Failure to document proper engine and CRT(+) maintenance, including keeping records of engine’s oil consumption, and regeneration standards, may be grounds for denial of warranty claim.
    • Any change in the duty cycle (i.e. pattern of use) used to measure the exhaust gas temperature profile of the candidate engine may cause the diesel emissions control strategy to fail to meet the requirements of the strategy’s Executive Order and may adversely affect the performance of the strategy, including but not limited to premature filter failure / plugging.
    Note 1: Use of other engine oils other than CJ-4, may result in more frequent filter service intervals.

    TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDANCE NOTES

    A. ENGINE ECM FAULT CODES
    Below are some codes to look at and there may be others where dealers should use their experience to determine if a code will impact engine emissions:

    • Any ECM fault codes below either inactive or active within the last 300 hours requires investigation
    • EGR faults including temperature, hardware, and valves
    • Turbo Charger related faults (e.g. temperature, VGT function, etc.)
    • Intake Manifold Temperature (may be related to CAC and turbo health)
    • Intake Manifold Pressure (may be related to CAC and turbo health)
    • Any coolant system faults
    • Any engine sensor faults (e.g. intake manifold temp, engine speed, etc.)
    • Any fuel injector faults
    • Any single engine derate condition within the last 300 hours requires investigation

    B. FUEL ANALYSIS

    NOTE: Black fuel may be OK for Cummins ISX as long as it is not oil in the fuel

  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
