This sectional view of the engine shows the injector installation and the pushrod arrangement in
relation to the upper portion of the engine.
This sectional view is similar to the original 3500 EUI engine. Major differences are the spring
loaded injector push rods and the larger diameter camshaft.
Each cylinder has three corresponding camshaft lobes. The center lobe is is used to actuate the
unit injector. The 3500B has a larger diameter camshaft to accommodate the higher injection
pressures generated in the unit injector pumps.
The cylinder block has a larger camshaft bore to accommodate the larger camshaft. (All 3500
engines are now being manufactured to this standard.)
The 3500B injector pushrod spring, which maintains contact between the lifter roller and the
camshaft lobe. This spring is designed to maintain cam follower and camshaft contact and
protect the mechanism during a possible overspeed

This picture shows the difference between the Mechanical Unit Injection (MUI) and current Electronic
Unit Injection (EUI) installation in the cylinder head.
Notice the Helper Spring on the injector pushrod. This arrangement is designed to keep the follower in
constant contact with the camshaft. The helper spring is required due to the increased injection pressures
of 151 MPa (22000 psi) and the steeper, high lift camshaft lobe profile.

The Analog Sensor Power Supply provides power to all the analog sensors (pressure and temperature).
The ECM supplies 5.0 0.5 Volts DC (Analog Supply) through the J1/P1 connector to each sensor.
A power supply failure will cause all analog sensors to appear to fail.
The power supply is protected against short circuits, which means that a short in a sensor or a wiring
harness will not cause damage to the ECM.

Speed/Timing Sensor
One Speed/Timing Sensor is installed and it serves four basic functions in the system:
- Engine speed detection
- Engine timing detection
- Cylinder and TDC identification
- Reverse rotation protection
The ECM supplies 12.5 1 Volts to the Speed/Timing Sensor.
Connector pins A and B transmit the common power supply to the sensor. The C connector pin transmits
the signals from the sensor to the ECM.
This power supply is not battery voltage, but is generated and regulated within 1.0 Volt by the ECM.
This power supply and the Speed/Timing Sensor are vital parts of the EUI system. A failure of the sensor
will result in an engine shutdown.

The engine Coolant Temperature Sensor is located at the front of the engine on the thermostat housing.
This sensor is used with the ECM to control various functions. The following systems or circuits use the
Temperature Sensor output to the ECM:
The Vital Information Management System (VIMS) or Caterpillar Monitoring System Coolant
Temperature Gauge over the CAT Data Link.
The High Coolant Temperature Warning Alert Indicator and Gauge on the VIMS or Caterpillar
Monitoring System panel. (The information is transmitted over the CAT Data Link.)
The Engine Demand Fan Control, if installed, uses the sensor signal reference to provide the
appropriate fan speed.
The Cat Electronic Technician (ET) status screen for coolant temperature indication.
The Cold Mode engine control (i.e. elevated low idle and timing reference for cold mode operation).
The Ether Aid control as a reference for Ether Aid operation.
The sensor supplies the temperature signal for the following functions:
- Caterpillar Monitoring System or VIMS instrument display, warning lamps and alarm
- Demand Control Fan (if so equipped)
- ET or ECAP coolant temperature display
- High coolant temperature event logged above 107C (225F)
- Engine Warning Derate when 107C (225F) is exceeded or low oil pressure occurs (if so
equipped)
- Reference temperature for Cold Mode operation
NOTE: All analog sensors use the common analog power supply of 5.0 0.2 Volts.
Page:
12
The Aftercooler Temperature Sensor is mounted at the rear of the block (Off-highway Truck) and
measures coolant temperature in the aftercooler circuit.
The ECM uses the sensor signal as a reference for the fan control. When high aftercooler temperatures
are reached, the cooling fan speed is increased. Very high aftercooler temperatures will cause a VIMS
warning event to be logged.
NOTE: This sensor measures the ability of the aftercooler to cool the air sufficiently for
combustion. As a general rule, for every 1 degree that the combustion air is reduced in
temperature, the exhaust will be reduced by approximately 3 degrees. High inlet manifold
temperatures can significantly shorten the life of exhaust system components (i.e. exhaust
manifolds, valves, turbochargers and pistons).
Three pressure sensors are used for the measurement of oil pressure:
- Two Oil Pressure Sensors (filtered and unfiltered)
- Atmospheric Pressure Sensor
The filtered and unfiltered pressure sensors are used together to measure oil filter restriction.
The filtered oil pressure sensor is used to measure lubrication oil pressure for the operator on the dash
panel and for the technician on ET. The atmospheric pressure sensor is used with this oil pressure sensor
to calculate the gauge pressure reading.

Engine oil pressure varies with engine speed. As long as oil pressure increases above the upper line after
the engine has been started and is running at low idle, the ECM reads adequate oil pressure. No faults are
indicated and no logged event is generated. A delay built into the system prevents false events from
being logged after start-up or after a filter change.
If the engine oil pressure decreases below the lower line, the following occurs:
- An event is generated and logged in the permanent ECM memory.
- A Category 3 Warning (alert indicator, action lamp and alarm) is generated on the VIMS and
Caterpillar Monitoring System.
- The engine is derated (if so equipped) to alert the operator.
The width of the pressure band between the two lines is sufficient to prevent multiple alarms and events
or a flickering warning lamp. (This pressure separation is referred to as hysteresis).

The Atmospheric Pressure Sensor is installed on the ECM mounting adapter and is vented to the
atmosphere. This sensor has various functions which are fully described later in the presentation.
Briefly, it performs the following functions:
Ambient pressure measurement for automatic altitude compensation and automatic air filter
compensation.
Absolute pressure measurement for the fuel ratio control, ET, filter restriction, and Caterpillar
Monitoring System panel (gauge) pressure calculations.
All pressure measurements require the atmospheric pressure sensor to calculate gauge pressure. All
pressure sensors in the system measure absolute pressure. The sensors are used individually in the case
of atmospheric pressure (absolute pressure measurement). They are used in pairs to calculate gauge
pressures (oil and boost) and filter restriction.
All the pressure sensor outputs are matched to the Atmospheric Pressure Sensor output during
calibration. Calibration can be accomplished automatically using the ET service tool or by turning on the
key start switch without starting the engine for five seconds. The Atmospheric Pressure Sensor performs
four main functions:
1. Automatic Altitude Compensation (Maximum derate 24%)
2. Automatic Filter Compensation (Maximum derate 20%)
3. Part of the pressure calculation for gauge pressure readings
4. Reference sensor for pressure sensor calibration
A foam filter is installed below the sensor to prevent the entry of dirt.

ALTITUDE IN FEET
53
Atmospheric pressure measurement by the sensor provides an altitude reference for the purpose of
Automatic Altitude Compensation.
The graph shown here describes how derating on a typical 3500B starts at 7500 ft. and continues linearly
to a maximum of 17000 ft. Other engines may start between 4000 and 12000 ft. depending on the
application.
The advantage of the EUI system is that the engine always operates at the correct derating setting at all
altitudes. The system continually adjusts to the optimum setting regardless of altitude, so the engine will
not exhibit a lack of power or have smoke problems during climbs or descents to different altitudes.
NOTE: The EUI system has an advantage over a mechanical fuel system which is derated in
"altitude blocks" (i.e. 7500 ft., 10000 ft., 12500 ft.). EUI derating is continuous and automatic.
Therefore, a machine operating in the lower half of the block is not penalized with low power.
Conversely, a machine operating in the upper half of the block will not overfuel with the EUI
system.

The Turbocharger Inlet Pressure Sensor is mounted between the air filter and the turbocharger.
This sensor is used in conjunction with the atmospheric pressure sensor to measure air filter restriction for
engine protection purposes. The difference between the two pressure measurements is used as the filter
differential pressure. The engine ECM uses this calculation to determine whether derating is necessary to
protect the engine against the effects of excessive filter restriction.
This function is referred to as Automatic Air Filter Compensation.
Depending on the application and air intake system configuration, either one or two Turbocharger Inlet
Pressure Sensors may be used.
If the machine is equipped with an ether start system, the ECM will automatically inject ether from the
ether cylinders) during cranking. The operator can also inject ether manually with the ether switch in the
cab. Ether will only be injected if the engine coolant temperature is below 10C (50F) and engine speed
is below 1200 rpm.
Page:
17
Automatic Filter Compensation means that the engine is protected against the effects of plugged filters.
Derating is automatic as follows:
- Air filter restriction (P) exceeds 6.25 kPa (30 in. of water)
- Engine power derating starts at the rate of 2% per 1 kPa of P
- Maximum derate 20%
- Event is logged when air filter restriction (P) exceeds 6.25 kPa (30 in. of water)
These P specifications are typical examples. The actual values may vary depending on the application.
Derating is retained at the maximum P until the key start switch is cycled off and on.
NOTE: If only one filter is plugged, the ET service tool and Caterpillar Monitoring System will
display the highest P of the two. Derating is also based on the highest P of the two.
The Turbocharger Outlet Pressure Sensor measures absolute pressure downstream of the aftercooler.
Boost (gauge) pressure can be read with the service tools. This measurement is a calculation using the
Atmospheric Pressure and the Turbocharger Outlet Pressure Sensors.
A failure of this sensor will cause the ECM to default to a zero boost condition. This failure can result in
a 60% loss in engine power.
The function of the sensor is to enable the Air/Fuel Ratio Control which reduces smoke, emissions and
maintains engine response during acceleration. The system utilizes manifold pressure and engine speed
to control the air/fuel ratio. Engine fuel delivery is limited according to a map of gauge turbo outlet
pressure and engine speed.
The Air/Fuel Ratio Control setting is adjustable on 3500B machine applications using the service tool.

The ECM uses gauge pressure measured from the Crankcase Pressure Sensor and the Atmospheric
Pressure Sensor to determine whether crankcase pressure is excessive (i.e. a piston allowing excessive
blowby which could soon cause considerable damage).
The ECM will warn the operator of possible damaging conditions and record adverse conditions in the
memory.
A possible cause of excessive crankcase pressure could be piston damage or a piston ring failure. An
early warning means that the engine can be shut down without catastrophic secondary damage.
Crankcase pressure is compared with atmospheric pressure. The result is crankcase (gauge) pressure (i.e.
pressure above ambient).
The trip points are:

Two Exhaust Temperature Sensors are installed on the 793C. The sensors are mounted between the
exhaust manifold and the turbocharger.
The ECM uses the sensors to warn the operator of possibly damaging conditions and logs an event in the
memory.
An engine derate occurs on Off-highway Trucks if excessive exhaust temperatures are reached.
The Throttle Position Sensor provides engine speed control for the operator.
At engine start-up, the engine rpm is set to low idle for two seconds to allow an increase of oil pressure
before the engine is accelerated.
The Throttle Position Sensor receives 8 Volts from the Digital Sensor Power Supply at the ECM.
The Throttle Position Sensor is shown on the machine wiring side of the diagram.
NOTE: This system eliminates all mechanical linkage between the operator's engine speed controls
and the governor (ECM).

21
The Throttle Back-up Switch provides a "limp home" mode in the event that the Throttle Position
Sensor becomes inoperative.
If the ECM detects either an invalid or no signal, the Throttle Back-up Switch is automatically activated.
When activated, the operator may operate the switch to raise the engine speed to 1200 rpm for as long as
the switch is operated. If the Throttle Position Sensor signal is received again, the switch is deactivated.
Page:
22
Prelubrication System
The ECM controls the prelubrication system. This system uses the coolant temperature, engine speed and
oil pressure as its references to determine the need for prelubrication.
The system is activated when the key start switch is turned to the start position. The system prevents
starter motor engagement until the oil pressure increases.
Page:
23
Logged events listed on the appropriate ET screen are conditions which are abnormal to the operation of
the engine. For example:
- High coolant temperature
- Low oil pressure
- Filter restriction
- Excessive engine speed
These events are not normally electronic problems, but might be conditions caused by a plugged radiator,
low oil level, maintenance or operator deficiencies.
A list of possible events for the 3500B engine is included on the next page.
Some of the parameters listed in this presentation are used in the ET events list. They are as follows:
- High coolant temperature
- High exhaust temperature
- High aftercooler temperature
- Crankcase pressure
- Loss of coolant flow
- Low (lubrication) oil pressure (according to the oil pressure map)
- User defined shutdown
- Air filter restriction
- Fuel filter restriction
- Oil filter restriction
- Engine oil level
- Engine overspeed histogram
- High boost
- Low boost

As the Speed/Timing Sensor uses the timing wheel for a timing reference, timing calibration improves
fuel injection accuracy by correcting for any slight tolerances between the crankshaft, timing gears and
timing wheel.
During calibration, the offset is saved in the ECM EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read
Only Memory). The calibration offset range is limited to 7 crankshaft degrees. If the timing is out of
range, calibration is aborted. The previous value will be retained and a diagnostic message will be
logged.
The timing must be calibrated after performing the following procedures:
1. ECM replacement
2. Speed/timing sensor replacement
3. Timing wheel replacement
4. Camshaft, crankshaft or gear train replacement

1. For coolant temperatures at or below 86F:
Timing will be retarded to protect the engine against high cylinder pressures. Idle is elevated to 1300
rpm (with parking brake ON and transmission in NEUTRAL).
2. For coolant temperatures above 86F and below 140F, the timing will advance. For engine speeds
below 1200 rpm, timing will vary according to the low engine speed line.
NOTE: Neither fuel nor engine speed is limited during Cold Mode operation. When cold mode

The Fuel Ratio Control has been optimized to provide excellent performance and black smoke control
without any need for adjustment. There should be no need to use the Fuel Ratio Control Offset except
for special circumstances.
Changing the Fuel Ratio Control Offset parameter allows the customer tailoring of the fuel to air ratio in
order to compensate for winter blend fuel, individual costumer preference etc.
Use of the Fuel Ratio Control Offset parameter will NOT affect overall power output of the engine. The
parameter should NOT be used to mask possible engine performance which may exist.
