Kubota offers the D1105-K diesel engine for construction equipment and machines requiring 24.8 hp of output. Building off the D902-K, the D1105-K engine offers 3,000 rpm, three cylinders and 1.123L displacement.
“Stricter emission regulations not only in Europe but the rest of the world are currently driving decarbonization demand,” said Tomokazu Matsushita, president of Kubota Engine America. “The electronic control of Kubota engines finely tune fuel injection to create better fuel efficiency than conventional mechanical engines, which reduces CO2 emissions and make exhaust gas cleaner. For these reasons, Kubota strives to broaden its electronically controlled small engine lineup.”
Equipped with the TVCR combustion system, the D1105-K engine combines Kubota’s original combustion system with electronic control technology developed specifically for small engines. The engine adopts the Kubota TVCR combustion system for compact size and use as a replacement to conventional Kubota engines.
Manufacturers can replace conventional mechanical engines with the D1105-K because specifications, such as the exterior dimensions as well as the position of the intake and exhaust and power take-off, stay the same. It can also reduce the labor placed on the design of the main machine generally necessary to install an engine with an electronic control unit, such as designing the installation position and harnesses, because the ECU is mounted directly to the engine.
