Every Alternative.

ISL G (International).

Natural Gas Engine for Truck and Bus.

ISL GThe ISL G natural gas engine not only meets EEV emissions levels today, it also sets a new benchmark for lower alternative fuel vehicle life cycle costs. In high fuel use applications, the lower alternative fuel costs, improved fuel economy and lower incremental maintenance costs of the ISL G make it possible to save valuable fleet dollars.

Features

  • Stoichiometric Cooled Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)—Uses high EGR rates in combustion process in place of excess air (Lean Burn) that improves fuel efficiency and creates an oxygen free exhaust allowing for the use of a Three-Way Catalyst
  • Cummins Cooled EGR—lowers in cylinder temperature and reduces oxygen concentration
  • New Electronic Control Module—provides full monitoring and control of engine sensors, fuel system and ignition system
  • Three-Way Catalyst—simple passive device, highly effective hydrocarbon, CO, and NOx control with no exhaust system related maintenance costs
  • Low installed weight—highest power to weight ratio in its class
  • Improved clutch engagement torque
  • LNG, CNG, or Biomethane capable
  • Meets EEV
