Cummins 2013 Engines

Same NOx and PM emissions regulations as 2010– 0.2g NOx and 0.01g PM

Same base engine and aftertreament as 2010 - 2012– New ECM

• Integrated engine and aftertreatment controls

– Intake air throttle for closed loop control (emissions)

OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) required – Diesel Only– New fault codes added to monitor emissions sytems

What is OBD?

On-Board Diagnostics– Monitors nearly every component that can affect the

emissions control system

– Tests emissions-related components and systems to detect malfunctions

– Similar to passenger car systems or Cummins Turbodiesel in RAM Pick-up / Chassis Cab which have OBD-II systems for many years

What Does OBD Mean For The Transit Industry?

Better monitoring of emissions systems

Increased accuracy in determining the root cause of emissions-related faults

Provides early warning of malfunctions

Maintenance Changes for 2013

Fuel Filter change intervals (now at every oil change)

– NanoNet fuel filter medium

Inspection intervals reduced

– Radiator cap and SCA levels (20K to 15K miles)

– Engine drive belts & tensioner (40K to 30K miles)

– Air compressor discharge line (80K to 60K miles)

Aftertreatment servicing

– Frequent regeneration faults

OEM Coolant Recover Tanks

– Add Coolant to recovery tank, not top tank

OBD Fault Codes

– New fault codes all added for emissions compliance

– Cummins Insite / Generic Scan Tool21

Service Tools

22

INSITE – Maintains ability to perform Cummins specific special tests whereas a generic scan tool cannot.

QSOL (QuickServe OnLine)

EDS – Next Generation Diagnostic Tool product offered through Cummins certified repair locations.

OBD connector style will be the same 9-pin connector used previously

Future Regulations

2014 GHG Standards

– CO2 Limits: Reduce by 3% in 2014 to 9% total in 2017 over a 2010 industry baseline

– N2O and CH4 Limits (already met in 2010)

Cummins EPA 2013 compliant engines meet 2014 Greenhouse Gas and Fuel Efficiency standards

OEM (TVM) needs to use tires that are certified for compliance with GHG reduction (rolling resistance)

24

Page 25: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Hybrid Engine Regulations

Cummins will offer Hybrid engines that meet both EPA and ARB 2013 certification requirements.

Hybrid ratings will be distinct from conventional (non-Hybrid) ratings

Hybrid ratings with Engine Start Stop (ESS) capability will be distinct from non ESS Hybrid ratings and will be limited to one ISB Transit Bus rating. (First availability: July 2013)

LBT Mission Long Beach Transit is

in business to provide public transportation services that enhance and improve the quality of life for the people in our community.

We serve Long Beach, along with 11 other cities – 98 square miles

29 million ridership

Page 31: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Quality of Life Sustainability – drives our decision to clean

up emissions on our vehicles Diesel Coaches – all purchases prior to 2003

– Installed particulate traps on diesel buses in 2001

– Early adopter of ultra-low sulfur diesel

2003 made a decision to go gas hybrid– Procured 89 gasoline hybrid electric buses to date

– Staff and operations vehicles are actively being replaced with hybrids

2010 – completed alternative fuel study with WVU – essence maintain diverse fuel choice

Page 32: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

CNG Plans LBT planned on CNG for 2015 CNG economically good vs gas hybrid

– Lower Operating Costs w/ tax credit– Infrastructure costs - break even point at one

property for 40 coaches & other 70

ISE bankruptcy in late 2010 CNG purchases moved to 2012

– Must build a CNG station within one year– Modify both facilities to accommodate CNG– Procure 64 buses with CNG engines

Page 33: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Project Plan

Page 35: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

CNG Project Goals Provide CNG fueling station able to fuel

77 – 95 coaches Upgrade infrastructure to accommodate

repairs in entire shop & fuel island Prepare utilities for CNG (gas &

electricity) Buy 64 CNG buses Get LBT transitioned to CNG Environmental understanding - ESMS

Page 36: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Project Constraints Goal 1 year – anticipating delivery of

new CNG coaches Budget for station was tight – need to

keep within $6.2 million Heavy workload on facility team

– Limited Staff Experience for CNG – Limited Staff Time for Project

Need City approval & cooperation (including LB Fire Department) – avoid EIR if at all possible

Page 37: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

CNG Station Contract Awarded 4 qualified proposals received ranging

Page 38: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Maintenance Impact Station Need Daily inspections & scheduled

PM’s LBT chose to contract out

– Amtek – 1 year maintenance agreement– Clean Energy – doing daily & oversight

Going out to bid to award long-term contract, still need some facility training

Need to train all employees on Safety & Maintenance on fueling

CNG Coach Purchases Piggy Back - contract with Gillig for 64

coaches (after full evaluation)– Cummins Engine – ISL G - 280– ZF Transmission – Eco Life 6AP 1400B– CNG Tanks & Fueling System– Gas Detection w/ Fire suppression

Page 40: 1 APTA Bus Maintenance Webinar Part 1 Introducing the 2013 Diesel Engine Speaker: Tom Hodek, Cummins, Inc Part 2 Long Beach Transit: Embracing CNG Speaker:

Maintenance Impact Buses Fluids resulting from CNG / ISLG:

– A low ash engine oil– A premium long life coolant

Material Review & order Preventative Maintenance Impact

– Gas detectors & system health

– Inspection of CNG components, valves, piping, leak detection, filter draining & replace

The Future of Training Continued course development of

advanced technology More Partnerships with Vendor

– Vendor use of SCRTTC to develop course will provide standardized, transit approved courses

– Standard material (pre/post test, objectives, student material/exercises, instructor material)

Sharing of Material & TTT with non-regional members - expansion
