Yanmar brings new industrial engine and alternative power solutions to CONEXPO

At CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2023, Yanmar will introduce equipment from its new power range and share goals for a future with zero emissions and resource recycling.

Yanmar America will showcase the company's power range, including the following:

• 4TN107FTT powerpack
• HIPOWER SYSTEMS' EHR battery power generator
• ELEO modular, high-density battery 
• Yanmar Green Challenge 2050 vision for the future

"Yanmar is committed to responding to the challenges of the future with superior power that meets the needs of today's customers while developing new products and technologies that take advantage of alternative fuel sources," says Ron Adams, director of power solutions at Yanmar America Corporation. "Through close collaboration with dealers and OEMs, we seek to deepen our relationships and deliver greater value to our customers with our new power technologies."

Yanmar's 4TNV107FTT powerpack

Yanmar America is showing its highest-rated industrial engine at CONEXPO, the two-stage turbocharged 4TN107FTT, which has configurations at up to 207 horsepower. While the engine has been in production since 2021, it first became available in the U.S. in 2022. The 4TN107FTT benefits from two-stage turbocharging, with a low-pressure turbocharger delivering increased power at higher speeds and a high-pressure turbo boosting power at low engine speeds. An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system integrated into the cylinder head combined with a compact exhaust after-treatment package by diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF), and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) allows the engine to meet EPA Tier 4 final and EU Stage 5 exhaust emissions regulations and don't require users to stop work for normal regeneration operations. Yanmar America is also showing its 4TN107FTT powerpack configuration – a complete drop-in power unit for a broad range of industrial applications.

The EHR battery power generator

The HIPOWER SYSTEMS EHR is an energy storage and distribution system that reduces noise and emissions with increased reliability and improved energy efficiency. It can be used independently or integrated into power generation systems running on diesel or spark-ignited generators. The system can also be connected to the grid or used with photovoltaic or other renewable generation. 

ELEO – modular battery systems

ELEO Technologies B.V. is a battery technology manufacturer located in Helmond, the Netherlands. In 2022, Yanmar acquired a majority in the company. ELEO will display its next generation of battery systems at the Yanmar booth at CONEXPO. In January, ELEO officially opened its new battery production plant, increasing its annual battery production capacity tenfold to 500MWh – the equivalent of approximately 10,000 battery packs. The new battery system is the second product generation from the Dutch manufacturer after the first generation started production in early 2020. With the new product, ELEO offers industrial OEMs flexibility from a scalable design that helps meet the wide variety of requirements present in the off-highway industry.

Yanmar's Green Challenge 2050

Yanmar has launched the Yanmar Green Challenge 2050 with the goal of achieving carbon neutrality and promoting sustainability and resource recycling. The challenge will help drive product development, create new fuel systems, and foster OEM collaborations to reduce environmental impact and promote resource recycling. 

Yanmar is investing in the development of new energy sources for users and the industry, and the company is striving for zero emissions from its headquarters and facilities. The company has already started several new energy projects in different business lines, including hydrogen-powered cogeneration, research into hydrogen fuel marine engines, bio-gas cogeneration, dual-fuel power solutions with natural gas, fuel cell marine technology, smart agriculture, and resource recycling technologies.
