ENGINE F4

General
The new family of F4 engines is the result of a project developed on the basis of an agreement
forged between several of the worlds major OEMs: IVECO New Holland - Cummins, in order
to provide an answer to new and more exacting requirements of customers and the more strin-
gent environment protection regulations.
In addition to offering higher ruggedness, power, efficiency reliability and durability than the pre-
vious series, the new engines comply with emissions standards and the regulations defining
permissible noise levels, while also meeting the requirements of the most restrictive future di-
rectives and standards without requiring substantial modification.
The achievement of the foregoing engine characteristics was possible thanks to the use of new
materials, new technology and technical solutions including: electronically controlled high pres-
sure injection system (common rail), cylinder head with four valves per cylinder, intake / exhaust
manifolds that improve the dynamic flow of air and exhaust gas, and pistons with revised ge-
ometry of the combustion chamber.
Reliability and cost savings were further enhanced by reducing the number of engine parts and
using the same parts for IVECO application engines and for engines produced by the other
partners participating to the project.

HIGH PRESSURE ELECTRONIC INJECTION SYSTEM (COMMON RAIL)

Introduction
Extremely high injection pressures are necessary in order to reduce PARTICULATE emissions.
The common rail system makes it possible to inject fuel at pressures of up to 1450 bar, while
the injection precision obtained by electronic control of the system serves to optimise operation
of the engine while limiting emissions and fuel consumption.

Description of system
The injection system is composed of an electrical part and a hydraulic part.

Electrical system
The electronic control unit monitors engine control parameters by means of the various sensors
on the engine.

43
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH

EDC electronic control

Engine preheating element control


Pre-post heating is activated when even just one of the water, air or fuel temperature sensors
detects a temperature < = 5 C.

Phase recognition
By means of signals transmitted by the camshaft and crankshaft sensors, the cylinder into which
fuel must be injected is determined at the time of starting.

Injection control
On the basis of information transmitted by the sensors, the control unit administrates the pres-
sure regulator and modifies the pre-injection and main injection mode.
On F4 engines pre-injection is activated at all engine speeds.

Injection pressure closed loop control


On the basis of the engine load, as determined by processing of data transmitted by the various
sensors, the control unit administrates the regulator to maintain injection pressure at constantly
optimal values.

Pilot and main injection advance control


On the basis of signals transmitted by the various sensors, the control unit determines the
optimum injection point on the basis of internal mapping.

Idle speed control


The control unit processes signals transmitted by the various sensors and adjusts the quantity
of fuel injected.
It also controls the pressure regulator and modulates injection duration of the electro-injectors.
Within specific limits, the control unit also monitors battery voltage.

Overheating protection
If the water temperature reaches 110 C, the control unit reduces engine performance.
When the temperature returns below 100 C, the engine resumes normal operation, (in some
applications, the over boosting temperature is the reference temperature).

Maximum engine speed limiting


Depending on the application, the control unit memory can contain appropriate engine speed
limits. When the engine speed surpasses these limits the control unit activates power reduction
strategies by controlling energization time of the electro-injectors. In some applications the
maximum limiting response consists in stopping the engine.

44
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH

Cut Off
Fuel cut-off in release phases is managed by the control unit with the following logical interven-
tions:
- disconnection of fuel supply to electro-injectors
- reactivation of electro-injectors immediately prior to arrival at idle speed
- control of fuel pressure regulator.

Smoke control under acceleration


With intense load demands, in accordance with signals received from the air inlet meter and the
engine speed sensor, the control unit manages the pressure regulator and modulates the
activation time of the electro-injectors to prevent the emission of smoke from the exhaust.

After Run
After the engine is stopped, the control unit microprocessor saves various parameters to the
EEPROM memory, including the faults log so that they will be available the next time the engine
is started.

Control of working speed in normal operating conditions (Crowler Excavators)


The user establishes engine working speed (power torque) according load (heavy or
light) and the system reacts maintaining the engine at these values as load varies.
The engine always operates with maximum power while the hydraulic power required during
use is managed by varying the speed of the hydraulic fluid and not its pressure.
Each time work load varies, the control unit adjusts torque so as to maintain the engine in
maximum power conditions. If the load causes a reduction in power, the control unit increases
torque i.e. it increases the amount of fuel injected in order to restore the engine to maximum
power.
If, after setting working speed, the operator does not invoke any command within a pre-set time,
the system returns to idling.

Recovery strategies
Recovery strategies are characterized by certain differences as application varies, i.e. loaders
or excavators.

Accelerator pedal
When the accelerator signal is not available to the control unit for the excavators, it brings
the engine to maximum power because its movement is hydraulic and the vehicle can
therefore be controlled in complete safety while, in the case of loaders, the system responds
by setting engine speed to idling.

Control of fuel leaks


In the case of fuel supply problems, the system controls the engine with suitable constant
power values obtained with a low number of revs and high torque values in order to inject
the maximum quantity of fuel.

45
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH
Control of pressure in the rail
When the pressure in the rail exceeds safety values, the engine still working in derating
mode.

Synchronism problems
In the case of synchronism problems, faulty rev sensors, the system controls the engine by
increasing the number of revs in order to improve interpretation of the signals.

Power restrictions as operating temperature increases


When the temperature of the supercharging air rises above 88C, power reduction is started;
when a temperature of 120C is reached, performance is further reduced and is comparable
to that of the same engine if it were aspirated.

Reduction of power as reference temperature varies


In normal operating conditions, the system knows the supercharging air, oil and water tem-
peratures.
If the temperature of the engine water is not available, the system takes the temperature of
the oil as reference and when this reaches the threshold of 103C, it starts to reduce the
power available. On reaching 113C, power is reduced to 50%.

46
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH

Fuel supply system


The common rail system features a special pump that constantly keeps the fuel supply at a very
high pressure, irrespective of the phase of the cylinder destined to receive the injection charge;
the high pressure fuel is accumulated in a pipeline that is shared by all electro injectors (the
common rail).
This means that there is always a supply of fuel available at the electro injector inlet at the in-
jection pressure determined by the electronic control unit.
When the solenoid valve of one of the electro injectors is energized by the control unit, fuel
arriving directly from the common rail is injected into the corresponding cylinder.

The hydraulic system is composed of a low pressure circuit and a high pressure circuit.
The high pressure circuit is composed of the following pipelines:
- pipe connecting the high pressure pump outlet to the common rail;
- pipes from the common rail to the electro injectors.
The low pressure circuit is composed of the following pipelines:
- fuel pipe from fuel tank to prefilter;
- pipes supplying the mechanical feed pump via the control unit heat exchanger, the manual
priming pump and the prefilter;
- pipes supplying the high pressure pump via the fuel filter.
The fuel system is completed with a circuit to drain fuel from the common rail and the injectors,
and with the high pressure pump cooling circuit.

required on the low pressure system. Subsequently the high pressure pump supplies fuel at
the correct pressure to the common rail. This solution, in which only the required amount of
fuel is pressurized, improves energy efficiency and limits heating of fuel in the system.
Limiter valve 2, which is installed on the high pressure pump, serves to maintain pressure at
the pressure regulator inlet at a constant 5 bar.
Limiter valve 3, which is mounted on the cylinder head and inserted in the electro-injectors re-
turn line, regulates the fuel return flow from the electro-injectors to a pressure of between 1.3
and 2 bar.
There are two by-pass valves installed in parallel with the mechanical fuel feed pump.
By-pass valve 18 serves to allow fuel from the outlet of the mechanical pump to return to the
relative inlet, when pressure at the fuel filter inlet exceeds the permissible value. By-pass valve
17 makes it possible to fill the fuel system by means of the manual priming pump 10.

MAIN MECHANICAL COMPONENTS OF THE FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM


Fuel prefilter
The fuel filter, of the high water separation type, features a sensor 4 on the base of cartridge 3,
responsible for signalling the presence of water in the fuel.
The filter support also carries the manual priming pump 5 and the fuel system air bleed screw 2.
Warning
If the fuel contamination warning light illuminates, act instantly to remedy the cause; the
components of the common rail system will be rapidly damaged if the fuel contains water or
other impurities.

Fuel filter
The fuel filter is located in the engine crankcase on the fuel circuit between the feed pump and
the high pressure pump (CP3).
The following components are located on the support: fuel temperature sensor and heating re-
sistance.
The heater is activated if the fuel temperature is < = 0 C and it continues to operate until the
fuel reaches + 5 C.
The fuel temperature, as signalled to the EDC 7 control unit by the relative sensor, enables
highly accurate calculation of the flow rate of fuel to inject into the cylinders.

Mechanical feed pump

Normal operating condition


The mechanical feed pump is a gear pump installed on the rear of the high pressure pump,
which it supplies with pressurized fuel. The feed pump is driven by the high pressure pump
shaft.
In normal operating conditions the flow of fuel in the feed pump is as shown in figure.

Outlet overpressure condition


By-pass valve 1 opens in the presence of overpressure at the pump outlet B. In these circum-
stances, the pressure of the fuel overcomes the force exerted by spring 1 thereby placing the
pump outlet in communication with the inlet by way of passage 2.

Bleed conditions
The by-pass valve 2 opens when, with the engine stopped, the fuel circuit must be filled using
the manual priming pump. In this situation the by-pass valve 2 opens, due to the effect of the
pressure at the inlet, and the fuel flows out of outlet B.

control unit. During the plunger compression phase the fuel reaches sufficient pressure to open
the common rail delivery valve 2 and is thus forced through outlet 1 to the common rail.

Pump inlet pressure regulator


Located at the inlet to the high pressure pump, the regulator modulates the quantity of fuel with
which to supply the high pressure pump on the basis of instructions transmitted by the engine
control unit.
The regulator is basically composed of the following parts:
- poppet;
- core (control);
- pre-load spring;
- coil.
In the absence of a control signal, the pressure regulator is normally open so the high pressure
pump operates in maximum flow conditions.
The engine control unit transmits a PWM signal to the regulator to vary the high pressure pump
fuel inlet cross section to a greater or lesser extent.
This component cannot be replaced independently and must therefore not be disassembled.

5 bar limiter valve


Installed in parallel to the pressure regulator, the limiter valve serves to maintain constant fuel
pressure at the inlet to the regulator, this being a necessary prerequisite for correct operation of
the system.

001251t

When the pressure regulator is partially closed at the fuel outlet by the PWM control signal, the
pressure at the inlet tends to rise.
When pressure at the regulator inlet exceeds 5 bar, cylinder 8 overcomes the resistance offered
by the spring and travels upwards thereby placing the regulator inlet into communication with
the drain. The fuel is therefore able to flow to the drain side thus reducing the pressure at the
regulator inlet so the cylinder tends to return to its closed position. In relation to engine load
demands, with the pressure regulator partially closed the cylinder assumes a position of dy-
namic balance such as to assure constant pressure of 5 bar at the regulator inlet.

When regulator coil 1 is not energized, core 2 will be in its rest position due to the effect of
preload spring 3. Poppet 4 is in the maximum delivery position.
In these circumstances, the regulator feeds the high pressure pump with the maximum available
fuel flow rate.
The cylinder 8 controlling opening and closing of the 5 bar pressure limiter discharge passage is
in its closed position. Clearance between the internal parts is such as to allow a minimum flow
of fuel towards the outlet passage in order to lubricate the pump.

When the engine is at slow running idle speed, the control unit drives the regulator with a pulse
width modulation (PWM) signal to energise the regulator coil and hence displace the coil core 2.
In its movement, the core causes poppet 4 to assume the maximum closed position thus
allowing the minimum flow of fuel to the high pressure pump.
The pressure regulator is in its maximum closure position because the common rail must be
maintained at a relatively low pressure (350 - 400 bar). Cylinder 8 of the 5 bar limiter valve, re-
sponsible for controlling opening and closing of the discharge port, will be in its maximum
opening position to allow excess fuel to flow through discharge outlet 9.

Rail (pressure accumulator)


1. Common Rail
2. Flow limiters
3. Fuel inlet from high pressure pump
4. Pressure sensor
5. Relief valve

The common rail has a reduced volume to allow rapid pressurization at the time of engine
starting, engine slow idling, and in the case of high flow rates.
The volume is, however, sufficient to minimize the bellows effect caused by opening and closing
of the injectors and operation of the high pressure pump. This function is further aided by the
presence of a calibrated orifice downline from the high pressure pump.
Fuel pressure sensor 4 is screwed to the end of the common rail. The pressure sensor sends a
feedback signal to the electronic control unit, on the basis of which the pressure in the common
rail is monitored and adjusted when necessary.

000929t

Dual-stage relief valve


Assembled at one rail end, it protects the system components from failure of the rail pressure
sensor or of the CP3 pump pressure regulator, caused by an excessive pressure increasement
in the high pressure system.
Strictly mechanical this valve has a dual operational threshold 1750 and 800 bar dual-stage.
When the pressure is in the high pressure system reaches 1750 bar, the valve initially acts as a
single stage valve so as to enable the fuel to flow and consequently reduce the pressure to
safety values and then mechanically adjusts the pressure in the rail to about 800 bar.
This valve enables the engine to work at limited performance for extended periods of time and
avoid excessive fuel overheating thus safeguarding the gas exhaust pipes.
When the valve is tripped, the control unit stops of operation of the pressure regulator, the pump
is configured in the condition of maximum delivery to the rail, and stores failure 8.4.

60
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH

Flow limiters
Located on the fuel outlet fittings on the common rail, the flow limiters are designed to protect
the engine and vehicle in the event of internal leakages (e.g. jet jammed open) or external
leakages (e.g. damaged high pressure pipes).
In these cases, within certain limits the system can continue to operate by means of the
undamaged components of the other cylinders.

2. Piston
3. Fuel inlet
4. Spring
5. Part screwed to common rail

Warning:
After having taken steps to eliminate the egress of fuel from the common rail with the engine
stopped, the flow limiter will automatically reset due to the effect of the spring. Note, however,
that if the cause of the flow limiters activation is not remedied, when it is restarted the engine
will display the same problems.
If the leak is of significant magnitude, it will prove impossible to start the engine because the rail
will be unable to reach the necessary pressure.

000968t

A The fuel from the Common Rail reaches the electro-injectors through the holes in the
small diameter section of the piston.
In normal circumstances, the fuel pressure is exerted on both sides of the piston, thus
maintaining the spring in the open position.

61
Common Rail NEF engines - CNH

000969t

B In the case of significant pressure drops downline from the limiter the inlet pressure
exceeds the outlet pressure and thus forces the piston to the opposite side of the
valve thereby closing the fuel outlet.

Electro-injector
The injector is similar in construction to conventional injectors, except for the absence of the
needle return springs.
The electro-injector can be considered in terms of two basic parts:
- actuator jet composed of pressure rod 1, needle 2 and nozzle 3;
- control solenoid valve composed of coil 4 and pilot valve 5.
The solenoid valve controls lift of the jet needle.

High pressure pump pressure regulator

000912t
A. Pressure regulator

The quantity of fuel supplied to the high pressure pump is metered by the pressure regulator on
the low pressure system; the pressure regulator is managed by the EDC7 control unit.

Delivery pressure to the rail is modulated between 250 and 1450 bar by the electronic control
unit by controlling the pressure regulator solenoid valve.

This component is a N.O. solenoid valve.

The solenoid is connected to the control unit on pins C5 - C7.

The solenoid valve impedance is approximately 3.2 .

DIAGNOSIS METHODS
Currently the following diagnosis systems are available:
BLINK CODE 30 pin diagnostics socket
Dedicated strumentation

BLINK CODE DIAGNOSIS


EDC state indicator.
After setting the key to start, the EDC indicator light illuminates, after which, if no anomalies
are detected, the indicator light must extinguish.
Depending on the presence or absence of possible faults, the indicator light can assume the
following states:

Light off indicator


1. No fault
2. Slight fault
no impairment of performance
fault can be interpreted with BLINK CODE and diagnostic tools.

Indicator light steadily illuminated


1. Serious fault
performance impaired in certain cases
fault can be interpreted with BLINK CODE or diagnostic tools.

Flashing indicator light


1. Very serious fault
performance impaired in many cases, otherwise engine cuts out
fault can be interpreted with BLINK CODE or diagnostic tools.

Blink code activation / interpretation


The blink code is activated by pressing the BLINK CODE button located near the U.C.I.
The BLINK CODE identifies one fault at a time without distinguishing between currently active
faults and intermittent faults. To display all codes in the memory, the Blink Code button must be
pressed several times.
The code is composed of two digits and it is displayed by low speed flashes followed by fast
flashes.
If there are no faults present in the system, the EDC indicator light will not communicate any
information, illuminating only once.
Each time you turn the key to start the EDC light must switch on; if this fails to occur, check the
wiring and the light bulb.

IMPORTANT
The control unit must be detached and reattached only when the battery positive pole is
disconnected.

TROUBLESHOOTING SW 3.3_1
Troubleshooting information is given in two clearly distinguished sections:
- the first, ordered by Blink Code, concerns faults that can be directly recognized by the EDC 7
control unit. These fault types are mainly of an electrical electronic nature;
- the second, ordered by symptom, describes the possible faults that cannot be directly
recognized by the electronic control unit. These faults are mainly of a mechanical hydraulic
nature.
- Troubleshooting is a supplementary activity that integrates rather than replaces fault
diagnosis performed with the specific electronic diagnostic instruments.

Notes for correct use.

- If the fault is among those that can be recognized directly by the control unit, consult
Troubleshooting section 1 for information and additional suggestions to assist in solution of
the problem.

- If the electronic fault diagnosis procedures indicate that there are no anomalies, although the
problem persists, consult Troubleshooting section 2 and base your research on the
symptoms reported by the customer.
