Engine
Built for power, reliability, economy and low emissions.
Meeting regulations... Exceeding expectations.
Environmentally Responsible Design
Caterpillar machines not only help you build a better world, they help maintain
and preserve the fragile environment.
Emissions. The Cat C7 with ACERT
Technology introduces a series of
evolutionary, incremental improvements
that provide breakthrough engine technology built on systems and components
developed by Caterpillar with proven
reliability. The technology capitalizes on
Cat expertise in four core engine systems:
fuel, air, electronics and after treatment.
By combining ACERT Technology with
the new Economy Mode, customers can
balance the demands of performance and
fuel economy to suit their requirements
and application. ACERT engines meet
EC Stage IIIA emissions regulation.
Fewer Leaks and Spills. Engine oil and
encapsulated hydraulic oil filters are positioned
vertically and are easy to reach to minimize
spillage. Service intervals are extended to reduce
the times fluids are changed and handled.
Hydraulic oil service interval can be extended
to 4000 hours with the S•O•S program.
In addition to the S•O•S program fine filtration
system attachment extends the service interval
to 5000 hours.
Cat Extended Life Coolant extends service
to 6000 h, less need for fluid disposal.
The hydraulic system is compatible with Cat
HEES hydraulic bio-oil for ecologically
sensitive applications.
Performance. The Cat C7 engine
with ACERT Technology offers more
engine power, and runs at lower speeds
for better fuel efficiency and reduced
wear. The 329D is available with two
engine power versions:
– Standard power (140 kW)
– Optional High power (152 kW)
Power Management. Optimal machine
performance for each type of application.
The operator can change the engine
power on the monitor from standard
to high. The high power mode is
recommended for extremely productive
areas and for hard digging applications.
Automatic Engine Speed Control.
The two-stage, one-touch control
maximizes fuel efficiency and reduces
sound levels.
Engine Controller. ADEM™ A4
(Advanced Diesel Engine Management)
electronic control module manages fuel
delivery to get the best performance per
liter of fuel. The controller uses sensors
in fuel, air intake, exhaust and cooling
systems and provides flexible fuel
mapping, allowing the engine to
respond quickly to varying application
needs. It tracks engine and machine
conditions while keeping the engine
operating at peak efficiency.
Fuel Delivery. The Cat C7 features
electronic controls that govern the
mechanically actuated unit fuel
injection system. Multiple injection
fuel delivery involves a high degree
of precision. Precisely shaping the
combustion cycle lowers combustion
chamber temperatures, generating
fewer emissions and optimizing fuel
combustion. This translates into more
work output for your fuel cost.
Cooling System. To reduce fan noise,
the cooling fan is driven from a viscous
clutch which is electrically controlled by
the machine ECM. It calculates optimum
fan speed based on the target engine
speed, coolant temperature, hydraulic
oil temperature and actual fan speed.
The Cat C7 delivers a completely new
layout that separates the cooling system
from the engine compartment.
Air Cleaner. The radial seal air filter
features a double-layered filter core
for more efficient filtration and is
located in a compartment behind the cab.
A warning is displayed on the monitor

finishing work is easy and fast.
SmartBoom simplifies the task and
allows the operator to concentrate
on stick and bucket, while boom
freely goes up and down without
using pump flow.
Hammer Work. The front parts automatically follow the hammer while
penetrating the rock. Blank shots or
excessive force on the hammer are
avoided resulting in longer life for
the hammer and the machine. Similar
advantages with vibratory plates.
Truck Loading. Loading trucks from
a bench is more productive and fuel
efficient as the return cycle is reduced
while the boom down function does
not require pump flow.
SmartBoom. Reduces stress and vibrations transmitted to the machine and provides a more
comfortable environment.
Hydraulics
Cat hydraulics deliver power and precise control to keep material moving.
Component Layout. The 329D hydraulic
system and component locations have
been designed to provide a high level
of system efficiency. The main pumps,
control valves and hydraulic tank
are located close together to allow
for shorter tubes and lines between
components, which reduce friction loss,
and pressure drops in the lines.
The layout further provides greater
operator comfort by placing the radiator
on the cab side of the upper structure.
This allows incoming air to enter the
engine compartment from the operator
side and hot air and corresponding
engine sound to exit on the opposite
side away from the operator.
This reduces engine compartment
heat and sound being transmitted to
the operator.
Heavy Lift Mode. Maximizing lifting performance and boosting the lifting capability.
Heavy loads can be easily moved in the full
working range of the machine maintaining
excellent stability.
Hydraulic Cross Sensing System. The hydraulic
cross sensing system utilizes each of two
hydraulic pumps to 100%, under all operating
conditions. This improves productivity with
faster implement speeds and quicker, stronger
pivot turns.
Pilot System. The pilot pump is independent
from the main pumps and controls the front
linkage, swing and travel operations.
Boom and Stick Regeneration Circuit. Boom
and stick regeneration circuit saves energy
during boom-down and stick-in operation which
increases efficiency, reduces cycle times and
pressure loss for higher productivity, lower
operating costs and increased fuel efficiency.
Electronic Control System.
Ten hydraulic pump flow and pressure
settings can be preset, eliminating
the need to adjust the hydraulics each
time a tool is changed.
Auxiliary Valve. The auxiliary valve
is standard. Control circuits are
optional, allowing for operation of
high and medium pressure tools
such as shears, grapples, hammers,
pulverizers, etc.
Hydraulic Cylinder Snubbers.
Located at the rod-end of the boom
cylinders and both ends of the stick
cylinders to cushion shocks while
reducing sound levels and extending
component life.
