Maintenance reduced
From October 2013 CLARK will use the new DEUTZ engine TD 3.6L in its C40- 55sD diesel forklift series. CLARK will also equip both the C20-35D (DEUTZ 2.9L) series as of 2014, and the C60-80D (DEUTZ 3.6 TCD) series as of 2015 with DEUTZ engines, which meet the European exhaust emission standard IIIB.
The DEUTZ engine with DVERT oxidation catalytic converter (exhaust gas aftertreatment) dispenses with a high-maintenance diesel particle filter system (DPF).
The switch from the Kubota to the DEUTZ TD 3.6L engine means increased productivity for the C40-55sD. No idle time is required for filter cleaning and potential downtime due to burning out of the DPF is eliminated.
In addition to price benefits, compared to the Kubota with DPF, the C40- 55sD model series equipped with the DEUTZ TD 3.6L (power: 55.4 kW/rated speed: 2,200) also offers around 5% more peak torque, and a reduced noise level thanks to closed fans and optimised cooling.
