Foreword
Foreword
Recommended service should be performed at the
appropriate intervals as indicated in the Maintenance
Interval Schedule. The actual operating environment
of the engine also governs the Maintenance Interval
Schedule. Therefore, under extremely severe,
dusty, wet or freezing cold operating conditions,
more frequent lubrication and maintenance than is
specified in the Maintenance Interval Schedule may
be necessary.
Literature Information
This manual contains safety, operation instructions,
lubrication and maintenance information. This
manual should be stored in or near the engine area
in a literature holder or literature storage area. Read,
study and keep it with the literature and engine
information.
The maintenance schedule items are organized for
a preventive maintenance management program. If
the preventive maintenance program is followed, a
periodic tune-up is not required. The implementation
of a preventive maintenance management program
should minimize operating costs through cost
avoidances resulting from reductions in unscheduled
downtime and failures.
English is the primary language for all Perkins
publications. The English used facilitates translation
and consistency.

during the initial start-up of a new engine or an engine
that has been overhauled. This may be accomplished
by shutting off the fuel supply to the engine and/or
shutting off the air supply to the engine.
(1) Starting motor to engine block
(2) Starting motor to battery negative
Correct grounding for the engine electrical system
is necessary for optimum engine performance
and reliability. Incorrect grounding will result in
uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable
electrical circuit paths.
To stop an electronically controlled engine, cut the
power to the engine.
Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can result in
damage to the crankshaft bearing journal surfaces
and to aluminum components.
i02814681
Electrical System
Engines that are installed without engine-to-frame
ground straps can be damaged by electrical
discharge.
Never disconnect any charging unit circuit or battery
circuit cable from the battery when the charging unit
is operating. A spark can cause the combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries to ignite.
To ensure that the engine and the engine electrical
systems function correctly, an engine-to-frame
ground strap with a direct path to the battery must be
used. This path may be provided by way of a direct
engine ground to the frame.
To help prevent sparks from igniting combustible
gases that are produced by some batteries, the
negative “−” cable should be connected last from the
external power source to the negative “−” terminal
of the starting motor. If the starting motor is not
equipped with a negative “−” terminal, connect the
cable to the engine block.
The connections for the grounds should be tight and
free of corrosion. The engine alternator must be
grounded to the negative “-” battery terminal with
a wire that is adequate to handle the full charging
current of the alternator.

Engine Electronics
Tampering with the electronic system installation
or the OEM wiring installation can be dangerous
and could result in personal injury or death and/or
engine damage.
This engine has a comprehensive, programmable
Engine Monitoring System. The Engine Control
Module (ECM) has the ability to monitor the engine
operating conditions. If any of the engine parameters
extend outside an allowable range, the ECM will
initiate an immediate action.
The following actions are available for engine
monitoring control: WARNING, ACTION ALERT, and
SHUTDOWN.
Many of the parameters that are monitored by the
ECM can be programmed for the engine monitoring
functions. The following parameters can be monitored
as a part of the Engine Monitoring System:
• Atmospheric Pressure
• Intake Manifold Air Pressure
• Coolant Temperature
• Engine Oil Pressure
• Crankshaft Position
• Camshaft Position
• Fuel Temperature
• Intake Manifold Temperature
• System Voltage
The Engine Monitoring package can vary for different
engine models and different engine applications.
However, the monitoring system and the engine
monitoring control will be similar for all engines.

Very high injection pressures are produced by
electronically controlled, mechanically actuated unit
injectors. The injectors combine the pumping and the
electronic fuel metering (duration and timing) during
injection. The unit injectors accurately control smoke
limiting, white smoke, and engine acceleration rates.
Engine efficiency, efficiency of emission controls, and
engine performance depend on adherence to proper
operation and maintenance recommendations. This
includes the use of recommended fuels, coolants
and lubrication oils.
Aftermarket Products and Perkins
Engines
There is one unit injector per cylinder. Individual unit
injectors meter the fuel. The individual unit injectors
also pump the fuel. The metering and the pumping is
done under high pressure. High injection pressures
help to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
The use of this type of unit injector provides total
electronic control of injection timing. The injection
timing varies with engine operating conditions. The
engine performance is optimized in the following
areas:
When auxiliary devices, accessories, or consumables
(filters, additives, catalysts, etc) which are made by
other manufacturers are used on Perkins products,
the Perkins warranty is not affected simply because
of such use.
However, failures that result from the installation
or use of other manufacturers’ devices,
accessories, or consumables are NOT Perkins
defects. Therefore, the defects are NOT covered
under the Perkins warranty.
• Starting
• Emissions
• Noise
• Fuel consumption
The timing advance is achieved through precise
control of the injector firing. Engine speed is
controlled by adjusting the firing duration. The
information is provided to the Electronic Control
Module (ECM) by the crankshaft position sensor and
the camshaft position sensor. The information is for
detection of cylinder position and engine speed.
The engines have built-in diagnostics in order to
ensure that all of the components are functioning
and operating properly. In the event of a system
component deviation from the programmed limits,
the operator will be alerted to the condition by a
DIAGNOSTIC lamp that is mounted on the control
panel. An electronic service tool that is provided by
Perkins may be used to read the diagnostic codes.
These codes are logged and stored in the ECM.
Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Engine
Diagnostics” for additional information.

for information on engine storage.
i02513632
Product Lifting
There is three different levels of engine storage.
Level “A, B and C”.
Level “A ”
Level “A” will give protection for 12 month for diesel
engines and 12 month protection for gas engines.
This is for engines that are transported by a container
or a truck. Level “A” is for the transportation of items
that are within the United kingdom and within Europe.
Level “B ”
This level is additional to level “A”. Level “B ” will
give protection under normal storage condition
from −15° to +55°C (5° to 99°F) and “90%”
relative humidity for two year. Level “B” is for the
transportation of items overseas.
g00103219
Illustration 16
NOTICE
Level “C ”
Never bend the eyebolts and the brackets. Only load
the eyebolts and the brackets under tension. Remem-
ber that the capacity of an eyebolt is less as the angle
between the supporting members and the object be-
comes less than 90 degrees.
In order to protect the product to Level “C”, contact
Perkins Engines Company Limited Stafford.
When it is necessary to remove a component at an
angle, only use a link bracket that is properly rated for
the weight.
Use a hoist to remove heavy components. Use
an adjustable lifting beam to lift the engine. All
supporting members (chains and cables) should be
parallel to each other. The chains and cables should
be perpendicular to the top of the object that is being
lifted.
Some removals require lifting the fixtures in order to
obtain proper balance and safety.
To remove the engine ONLY, use the lifting eyes that
are on the engine.
Lifting eyes are designed and installed for specific
engine arrangements. Alterations to the lifting eyes
and/or the engine make the lifting eyes and the lifting
fixtures obsolete. If alterations are made, ensure
that proper lifting devices are provided. Consult your
Perkins dealer for information regarding fixtures for
proper engine lifting.

Features and Controls
Warning Alarm
The Warning alarm informs the user that the engine
is approaching a critical condition.
i02780670
Monitoring System
If the engine is in the Warning condition, then the
event will be logged in the memory of the ECM.
A event code will be transmitted over the Perkins
Data link and the hard wired Warning output will be
energized. If the engine is in the Warning condition,
the event code and output will remain while the
condition exists. The electronic service tool is used to
remove the event code from the memory of the ECM.
The trip point for the Warning alarm will be set to a
factory default in production. The electronic service
tool may be used to alter the trip point for a Warning
within predefined limits.
The engine has protection in three stages:
• Warning
• Action Alert
• Shutdown
The engine protection may be overridden by the
critical condition mode.
Action Alert
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the
following parameters:
The Action Alert informs the OEM that the engine is
approaching a critical condition. The engine should
be stopped in a controlled manner. Further running of
the engine may result in an immediate shutdown.
• Engine Temperatures
• Engine Pressures
• Engine Speed
If the engine is in the Action Alert condition, the event
will be logged in the memory of the ECM. A event
code will be transmitted over the Perkins Data link
and the hard wired Action Alert will be energized. If
the engine is in the Action Alert condition the event
code and output will remain while the condition exists.
The event code can not be cleared from the memory
of the ECM without using a factory password.
If the parameters exceed a trip point for a period of
time that is longer than the delay period, the ECM
logs an event code and the indicator switches ON.
The following parameters are monitored for event
codes:
Shutdown
• Lubricating Oil Pressure
• Coolant Temperature
• Overspeed
If the engine reaches the Shutdown condition,one of
the following events has occurred: low lubricating oil
pressure, high coolant temperature or overspeed.
The event will be logged in the memory of the ECM.
The engine will be shut down. A event code will
be transmitted over the Perkins Data link and the
hard wired Shutdown output will be energized. The
Shutdown condition will latch until the ECM is reset.
The event code for the shutdown can not be cleared
from the memory of the ECM without using a factory
password.
• Intake Manifold Temperature
• Intake Manifold Pressure
• Fuel Temperature
The temperature protection is disabled for a period
of time when the engine is cranking in order to
compensate for heat soak solutions.
Critical Protection Override
If the engine is in an application that is critical for
safety, the protection system can be overridden in
order to ensure the continuation of the power supply
during engine fault conditions.
The ECM has dedicated alarm outputs for each of the
three stages of protection. There are also dedicated
alarm outputs for oil pressure, coolant temperature
and overspeed events which are energized at any
stage of protection.

SEBU8337
Operation Section
Features and Controls
Shutdown Reset
Critical Protection Override will be set by a switch
input from the OEM. For example, this may be
a switch to battery + in order to disable a critical
override. Critical Protection Override input can be
enabled in the electronic service tool by use of a
factory password.
The cause of an engine shutdown must be
investigated. Corrective action must be taken before
the system is reset in order to operate the engine.
After an engine shutdown, operate the reset input of
the ECM or power down the controller.
When the Critical Protection Override feature is
active, the ECM will continue to run the engine in all
shutdown conditions with the exception of Overspeed
shutdown. If the shutdown is overridden a event code
is generated. The ECM will log the event code. The
ECM will energize the following: Warning, Action
Alert, Shutdown, oil pressure, coolant temperature,
and overspeed outputs as normal. The warranty of
the engine will be invalidated if the engine is operated
in the following conditions: active event code and
Critical Protection Override mode.
Powering down the electronic control module can be
achieved by the operation of the keyswitch into sleep
mode. The electronic control module can be powered
down by isolating the power supply to the electronic
control module.
Note: It is not possible to reset the ECM by using the
Reset input until the engine has come to rest.
Altitude derate
Standard Warning Outputs
At high altitudes or high ambient temperatures, the
engine will be derated. The engine derate information
can be obtained from the Applications Department at
Perkins Engines Company Limited Stafford.
The ECM provides individual outputs in order to
drive warning lamps or relays to indicate each of the
following fault conditions:
• Diagnostic Fault
• Oil Pressure
• Coolant Temperature
• Overspeed
Diagnostic
If there is a fault with an engine protection sensor on
the engine, the engine activates a diagnostic code.
The engine communicates the diagnostic code to the
operator via the Diagnostic output. The diagnostic
code provides an indication to the operator of a fault
with the engine protection system. Running of the
engine for a prolonged period in this condition may
result in engine failure. The output is generally used
to drive lamps or relays.
• Action Alert
• Warning
• Shutdown
The following sensors are monitored in order to
determine if the sensors are out of the normal range,
an open circuit or a short circuit:
If the ECM detects a warning for the coolant
temperature , the output on the coolant temperature
will be energized and the warning output will be
energized. If the ECM detects a warning for the low
oil pressure, the output on the oil pressure will be
energized and the warning output will be energized.
• Atmosphere Pressure
• Lubricating Oil Pressure
• Inlet Manifold Pressure
• Inlet Manifold Temperature
• Fuel Temperature
If the Action Alert alarms are enabled and the ECM
detects a coolant temperature condition, the output
on the coolant Temperature will be energized and the
output on the Action Alert will be energized.
If the engine shuts down on low oil pressure the
output on the low oil pressure will be energized and
the output on the shutdown will be energized. If the
engine shuts down on coolant temperature or the
engine shuts down on overspeed the dedicated
output and the shutdown output will be energized.
• Coolant Temperature
• Engine Speed
• Desired Speed Input

Operation Section
Features and Controls
The Diagnostic output differs from the Warning and
Shutdown outputs. The Warning and Shutdown
outputs refer to the operation of the engine. The
Diagnostic output refers to the condition of the
electronic system and software system.
A diagnostic fault may develop on the lubricating
oil pressure or coolant temperature sensors. For
example, if a Shutdown protection sensor has a fault,
this will result in an engine shutdown, unless the
system is in critical protection override. If a diagnostic
fault occurs with one of the engine speed sensors
while the engine is running. The engine continues to
run by using the other timing sensor for reference.

Failure of Sensors
Programmable Monitoring System
(PMS)
All Sensors
The Programmable Monitoring System determines
the level of action that is taken by the Engine Control
Module (ECM) in response to a condition that can
damage the engine. These conditions are identified
by the ECM from the signals that are produced from
the following sensors.
A failure of any of the sensors may be caused by one
of the following malfunctions:
• Sensor output is open.
• Sensor output is shorted to “- battery” or “+ battery”.
Engine Coolant Temperature
Sensor 1
• Measured reading of the sensor is out of the
specification.
The coolant temperature sensor monitors engine
coolant temperature. The output of the ECM can
indicate a high coolant temperature through a relay
or a lamp. The coolant temperature sensor is used
by the ECM to determine initiation of the Cold Start
Condition.

Operation Section
Features and Controls
Failure of the Coolant Temperature
Sensor
Low Oil Pressure Warning
The setpoint for the low pressure warning is
dependent upon the engine speed. The fault will be
active and logged only if the engine has been running
for more than 8 seconds.
The ECM will detect a failure of the coolant
temperature sensor. The diagnostic lamp will
warn the operator about the status of the coolant
temperature sensor. A failure of the coolant
temperature sensor will cause a shutdown of the
engine. The faulty sensor should be replaced. Refer
to Disassembly and Assembly Manual, “Coolant
Temperature Sensor - Remove and Install”.
Low Oil Pressure
The very low oil pressure setpoint is dependent upon
the engine speed. If very low oil pressure is detected,
the ECM will stop the engine immediately unless
Critical Events Override is active.
Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor 2
Failure of the Engine Oil Pressure Sensor
The intake manifold pressure sensor measures boost
pressure in the intake manifold. A signal is sent to the
ECM. A failure of the inlet manifold pressure sensor
will limit the power of the engine.
The ECM will detect failure of the engine oil pressure
sensor. The diagnostic lamp warns the user about the
status of the engine oil pressure sensor. The engine
oil pressure related strategies will be disabled in the
event of a failure of the engine oil pressure sensor.
A failure of the engine oil pressure sensor will cause
a shutdown of the engine. The faulty sensor should
be replaced. Refer to Disassembly and assembly
Manual, “Engine Oil Pressure Sensor - Remove and
Install”.
Intake Manifold Air Temperature
Sensor 3
The Intake manifold air temperature sensor measures
the intake air temperature. A signal is sent to the
ECM. The intake manifold air temperature sensor is
also used by the ECM to determine initiation of the
Cold Start Strategy.
Fuel Temperature Sensor 7
Atmospheric Pressure Sensor 4
The fuel temperature sensor monitors the fuel
temperature. The signal from the sensor allows
the ECM to compensate for changes in the fuel
temperature by adjusting the fuel rate for constant
power.
All the output signals from the pressure sensors are
matched to the output signal of the atmospheric
pressure sensor during calibration. The signal from
the atmospheric pressure sensor is used by the ECM
in order to determine the operating altitude of the
engine. If necessary, the ECM can derate the engine.
Primary Speed/Timing Sensor 8
If the ECM does not receive a signal from the primary
speed/timing sensor , the “DIAGNOSTIC” lamp will
indicate a diagnostic fault code which will be logged
in the ECM memory.
Secondary Speed/Timing Sensor 5
The signal from the secondary speed/timing sensor
is used by the ECM on engine start-up in order to
determine the stroke that the pistons are on. The
secondary speed/timing sensor may be used by the
ECM in order to operate the engine if the primary
speed/timing sensor is faulty.
If the ECM does not receive a signal from the primary
speed/timing sensor (9), the ECM will read the signal
from the secondary speed/timing sensor (2). The
ECM continually checks in order to determine if
there is a signal from both sensors. If either sensor
fails, the faulty sensor should be replaced. Refer to
Disassembly and Assembly Manual, “Crankshaft
Position Sensor - Remove and Install” or refer to
Disassembly and Assembly Manual, “Camshaft
Position Sensor - Remove and Install”.
In order to check the correct operation of the sensor,
refer to Troubleshooting, “Engine speed/Timing
sensor-Test”.
Engine Oil Pressure Sensor 6
Intermittent failure of the sensors will cause erratic
engine control.
The engine oil pressure sensor is an absolute
pressure sensor that measures the engine oil
pressure in the main oil gallery. The engine oil
pressure sensor detects engine oil pressure for
diagnostic purposes. The engine oil pressure sensor
sends a signal to the ECM .
