ENGINE DETAIL
The CaseIH Steiger 540 Quadtrac, equipped with a FPT two-stage turbocharged 12.9L diesel engine, delivers a robust power output of 535hp and a peak of 605hp, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks in agriculture and construction. Its advanced cooling system utilizes a hydraulically-driven fan for efficient thermal management, while the implementation of SCR for Tier 4 emissions compliance minimizes environmental impact, though it may necessitate regular urea replenishment. The electronic high-pressure common rail fuel system enhances fuel efficiency and performance, providing smoother operation at the rated RPM of 2100, particularly beneficial in high-load scenarios.
