Dongfeng
Cummins B series diesel engine is a product of Cummins Inc, introduced by
Dongfeng Motor Corporation through technology transfer in 1987. Cummins Inc.
(CUMMINS) is one of the largest diesel engine manufacturers in the United
States. Founded in 1919, the company has developed a variety of world-famous,
technologically leading diesel engines, and its product quality and performance
enjoy a high reputation in the world.
Dongfeng
Company and Cummins USA formed a joint venture company in 2003 - Dongfeng
Cummins Engine Co., Ltd.
Dongfeng Cummins B series diesel engines are well known internationally. With supercharged and supercharged intercooling as the basic models, it has eight characteristics: reliable, durable, emission and noise meet US regulations, advanced performance index, wide application range, good applicability, low cost, convenient maintenance and repair.
Cummins Medium Power Diesel Engine in
China
In
1986, Cummins and Dongfeng Motor Co. signed a contract to transfer technology
to produce B-series diesel engines in Xiangfan, Hubei Province.
In
1989, Dongfeng Company officially put on a market of 8 tons (14 tons total
weight) heavy-duty trucks equipped with 6BT diesel engines.
In
1991, the factory producing B series diesel engine was completed and put into
production.
In
1995, the localization rate of 6BT engines reached over 97%.
In
1996, Cummins and Dongfeng Motor Co. signed a contract to produce C/B series
diesel engines in Xiangfan, Hubei Province. In the same year, Dongfeng Cummins
Co., Ltd. was established.
In
1998, Dongfeng Cummins began to produce C-Series engines in CKD mode.
In
2000, the new factory building of Dongfeng Cummins Company was completed.
In
2001, the cumulative production of domestic B-series engines reached 300,000
units.

System
1.
Features: B series engine can be equipped with VE pump and inline pump
according to user requirements.
• Using small aperture porous small injector (5 hole injector)
• Independent plunger and diaphragm oil pump - driven by camshaft
• Two-stage spin-on fuel filter with oil-water separator
• Determine the timing of the oil supply with cam lift or
timing pin on the gear housing.
2.
Composition: oil pump, fuel filter, oil water separator, low pressure oil pipe,
high pressure oil pump, high pressure oil pipe, fuel injector, fuel oil return
manifold, fuel return pipe.
Pump
The oil
pump is available in diaphragm type and plunger type. The diaphragm type oil
pump is used for the VE type distribution pump, and the plunger type oil pump
is used for the inline pump. The two cannot be replaced.
If it
is a diaphragm type oil pump, the oil pressure is 13 kPa, so the resistance of
the oil path cannot be greater than 13 kPa, otherwise the pump will not produce
oil. The oil pressure of the plunger pump is: 138KPa.
Filter:
It is a two-stage series with a filtration efficiency greater than 90%. The
filtration accuracy is 25 microns.
The
filter should be replaced regularly (100 million kilometers), otherwise the
engine power will drop and the oil supply will be insufficient.
Drain
the water in the oil-water separator every day.
Timing mark
The oil
pump needs to be marked with timing when assembling. Different oil pumps may be
different. The general steps are:
1.
Confirm the engine one-cylinder compression top dead center TDC, there are many
ways to determine.
2.
Confirm the timing of the oil pump (via the timing pin on the oil pump)
3. Lock
nut
Note: Some
oil pumps are aligned with the mark on the oil pump gear and the camshaft gear,
such as the VE pump. The inline pump is also marked by the timing.
