BEARING 5I7795 - Caterpillar

The Caterpillar C7 engines are designed primarily for on-highway trucks with medium-duty applications. The engines have the following characteristics: air-to-air aftercooled, direct fuel injection, four stroke cycle and in-line 6 cylinder.Engine Specifications
Note: The front end of the engine is opposite the flywheel end of the engine. The left and the right sides of the engine are determined from the flywheel end. The number 1 cylinder is the front cylinder.

The Caterpillar C7 engines are designed for electronic controls. The integral on board computer controls the operation of the engine. Current operating conditions are monitored. The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls the response of the engine to these conditions and to the demands of the operator. These conditions and operator demands determine the precise control of fuel injection by the ECM. The electronic engine control system provides the following features:
Engine speed governor
Automatic air/fuel ratio control
Torque rise shaping
Injection timing control
System diagnosticsThe following programmable features are included in the electronic control:
Cruise control
Governing of PTO
Vehicle speed limiter
Idle shutdown
Compression brake operation controlFor more information on electronic engine features, refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Engine Features and Controls" topic (Operation Section).Additional Features
The following additional features provide increased engine fuel economy and serviceability:
Cold starting capability
Tampering detection
Diagnostics
American Trucking Association (ATA) data link ("SAE J1587")Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injectors
Hydraulically Actuated Electronic Unit Injectors (HEUI) perform the following functions: pumping of fuel, fuel metering and fuel timing.The unit injectors are controlled by the ECM which uses the camshaft position and the engine speed signals from the engine speed/timing sensors and the inlet air pressure sensors. The engine's rated rpm is identified on the Information Plate.Engine Diagnostics
The engine has built-in diagnostics in order to ensure that all of the components are functioning properly. In the event of a deviation from the programmed limits, the operator will be alerted to the condition by a "DIAGNOSTIC" lamp that is mounted on the dashboard. Under certain conditions, the engine horsepower and the vehicle speed may be limited. A Caterpillar electronic service tool or the vehicle's cruise control switches (if equipped) may be used to display the diagnostic code.There are three types of diagnostic codes: active, logged and event.Most of the diagnostic codes are logged and stored in the ECM. For additional information, refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Engine Diagnostics" topic (Operation Section).The ECM provides an electronic governor that controls the injector output in order to maintain the desired engine rpm. The functionality of electronic governor is similar to the Caterpillar mechanical governor, but the electronic governor includes additional features.Engine Cooling and Lubrication
The cooling system consists of the following components:
Centrifugal pump that is driven by belts
Water temperature regulator which regulates the engine coolant temperature
Oil cooler and radiator which incorporates a shunt systemThe
