Normal Operation
SMCS – 1405

The field winding uses DC voltage to create a magnetic field. The magnetic field is used to magnetize the rotor. The stator is a stationary component that surrounds the rotor. When the rotor rotates voltage is produced. The stator will then send the voltage to the rectifier. The rectifier changes the AC voltage into DC voltage. Part of the DC voltage returns to the field winding in order to maintain the magnetic field. The remainder of the DC voltage is supplied to the battery. Electrical components on the machine will then receive the voltage from the battery. The regulator limits the DC voltage at the battery terminals to 28 ± 1 volts by controlling the current in the field winding.

Illustrations 1 and 2 show the electrical schematics for the N3 series alternators.

The alternator has two circuits: the charging circuit and the excitation circuit. The charging circuit functions during normal operation. The excitation circuit functions during normal operation and during start-up. An independent circuit exists for each phase of the stator. Phases are noted as “U”, “V”, and “W”. The 50 amp alternator has two extra diodes. Diodes are connected to the neutral point of the stator. Diodes also add extra current to the output. However, the 35 ampere alternator lacks the extra diodes.

The descriptions that follow show the N3 series alternator (35 ampere).

Charging Circuit
The charging circuit supplies current to the battery and to the electrical systems during normal operation. Stator windings in the alternator generate three-phase AC voltage. Positive diodes and the negative diodes change the AC voltage into DC voltage. DC voltage allows the current to flow to the battery terminals.

The flow of current at a 120° phase angle is shown in Illustration 3. The polarity for the stator winding is described below:

Positive at the output of winding “V”

Negative at the output of winding “W”

Excitation Circuit (Normal)
The N3 series alternator is self-excited. The excitation circuit supplies current to the field winding (exciter) during normal operation. The rotor contains an iron core that acts as a rotating magnet. The rotating magnetic field induces voltages in the stator windings. Stator windings generate three-phase AC voltage. Exciter diodes and negative diodes change the AC voltage into DC voltage. DC voltage allows current to flow in the field winding. The current induces a stationary magnetic field in the field winding that will keep the rotor core magnetized. This process continues as the rotor operates normally.

The operation of the Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector (HEUI) fuel system is completely different from any other type of fuel system that is actuated mechanically. The HEUI fuel system is completely free of adjustment. Adjustments to the components that are mechanical can not be made. Changes in performance are made by installing different software in Engine Control Module (ECM) (15) .

This fuel system consists of six basic components:

Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector (HEUI) (7)

Engine Control Module (ECM) (15)

Unit injector hydraulic pump (1)

Injection Actuation Pressure Control Valve (10)

Fuel Transfer Pump (35)

Injection Actuation Pressure Sensor (6)

Note: The components of the HEUI fuel system are not serviceable. These fuel system components must not be disassembled. Disassembly will damage the components. If the components have been disassembled, Caterpillar may not allow a warranty claim or Caterpillar may reduce the warranty claim.

Component Description

Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector
The HEUI fuel system utilizes a hydraulically actuated electronically controlled unit injector (7) .

All fuel systems for diesel engines use a plunger and barrel in order to pump fuel under high pressure into the combustion chamber. This fuel is pumped into the combustion chamber in precise amounts in order to control engine performance. The HEUI uses engine oil under high pressure in order to power the plunger. All other fuel systems use a fuel injection pump camshaft lobe in order to power the plunger. Because the HEUI is much different, a technician must use different troubleshooting methods.

The HEUI uses engine lubrication oil that is pressurized from 6 MPa (870 psi) to 27.5 MPa (4000 psi) in order to pump fuel from the injector. The HEUI operates in the same way as a hydraulic cylinder in order to multiply the force of the high pressure oil. By multiplying the force of the high pressure oil, the HEUI can produce injection pressures that are very high. This multiplication of pressure is achieved by applying the force of the high pressure oil to a piston. The piston is larger than the plunger by approximately six times. The piston that is powered by engine lubrication oil under high pressure pushes on the plunger. This engine lubrication oil under high pressure is called the actuation pressure of the oil. The actuation pressure of the oil generates the injection pressure that is delivered by the unit injector. Injection pressure is greater than actuation pressure of the oil by approximately six times.

Low actuation pressure of the oil results in low injection pressure of the fuel. During conditions of low speed such as idle and start, low injection pressure is utilized.

High actuation pressure of the oil results in high injection pressure of the fuel. During conditions of high speed such as high idle and acceleration, high injection pressure is utilized.

There are many other operating conditions when the injection pressure is between the minimum and the maximum. Regardless of the speed of the engine, the HEUI fuel system provides infinite control of injection pressure.

Engine Control Module (ECM)
Engine Control Module (ECM) (15) is located on the left side of the engine. The ECM is a powerful computer that provides total electronic control of engine performance. The ECM uses data from engine performance that is gathered by several sensors. Then, the ECM uses this data in order to make adjustments to the fuel delivery, injection pressure and injection timing. The ECM contains programmed performance maps (software) in order to define horsepower, torque curves and rpm. This software is commonly called the personality module.

Some engines use Engine Control Modules (ECM) (15) with a replaceable computer chip. The software has already been installed in the replaceable computer chip. The 3126B and 3126E diesel truck engines do not have a replaceable personality module. The 3126B and 3126E diesel truck engine’s personality module are a permanent part of the ECM. The 3126B and 3126E diesel truck engine’s personality module can be reprogrammed. Reprogramming of the personality module requires the use of Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET). The flash function of Cat ET will be used during the reprogramming.

ECM (15) logs faults of engine performance. Also, the ECM is capable of running several diagnostic tests automatically when the ECM is used with an electronic service tool such as the Cat ET.

INJECTOR SYNCHRONIZATION
Injector synchronization is setting of all injector racks to a reference position so each injector gives the same amount of fuel to each cylinder. This is done by setting each injector to the same position while control linkage is in a fixed position (called the synchronizing position). Control linkage is at synchronizing position when cylinder No. 1 injector is at fuel shutoff. Since injector No. 1 is reference point for other injectors, no synchronizing adjustment is made to injector No. 1.
Always synchronize an injector when it has been removed and reinstalled.
1. Turn off engine and shut off engine’s electrical system. Remove fuel shutoff solenoid to allow injector rack control linkage to move freely during injector synchronization. Remove fuel shutoff solenoid using Spanner Wrench (4C4734). See Fig. 2.
2. Remove valve cover from intake manifold. Remove 4 bolts and cylinder No. 1 rocker arm assembly. See Fig. 3.

3. Apply a small amount of clean engine oil to top of injector. Install Injector Spring Compressor (1U6675) to cylinder head and injector. See Fig. 4. Tighten bolt on Spring Compressor (1V6675) which is threaded into cylinder head hole for rocker arm assembly. This compresses injector. Tap lightly with a soft hammer on spring compressor directly above injector to ensure free movement of injector rack bar.
