Loader Offers Emissions Control Options

Caterpillar reported the Cat R2900 Underground Loader offers configurations to meet the strictest diesel engine emissions standards, including those in Europe and North America, and delivers the high performance and 17.2-metric-ton (mt) payload of its proven predecessor.
The R2900 is powered by the Cat C15 engine. The six-cylinder engine is turbocharged and air-to-air after cooled, and produces 305 kilowatts (kW) in standard configuration and 293 kW in European Union (EU) Stage V compliant form, Cat reported. The loader is available with high ambient cooling capability. It leverages an efficiency radiator, which features a modular design with individual tubes that can be serviced independently to reduce maintenance time. The radiator also is resistant to clogging and allows faster cleaning and longer service intervals, the company reported.
The engine end frame design features new, simple structures that extend durability and accommodate modular components, which facilitate maintenance and repair, Cat reported. The in-cab display enables machine health monitoring through Cat Product Link Elite. A range of bucket sizes and configurations are available.
