Grounding Practices
g00771487
Illustration 7
Typical example
Alternate Grounding Stud To Battery Ground
Proper grounding for the engine electrical system
is necessary for optimum engine performance
and reliability. Improper grounding will result in
uncontrolled electrical circuit paths and in unreliable
electrical circuit paths.
Uncontrolled electrical circuit paths can result in
damage to main bearings, to crankshaft bearing
journal surfaces, and to aluminum components.
Engines that are installed without engine-to-frame
ground straps can be damaged by electrical
discharge.
To ensure that the engine and the engine electrical
systems function properly, an engine-to-frame
ground strap with a direct path to the battery must
be used. This path may be provided by way of a
direct engine ground to the frame.
All grounds should be tight and free of corrosion.
The engine alternator must be grounded to the
negative “-”battery terminal with a wire that is
adequate to handle the full charging current of the
alternator.
The power supply connections and the ground
connections for the engine electronics should
always be from the battery.
i01885770
Engine Electronics
Tampering with the electronic system installation
or the OEM wiring installation can be dangerous
and could result in personal injury or death and/or
engine damage.
This engine has a comprehensive, programmable
Engine Monitoring System. The Electronic Control
Module (ECM) has the ability to monitor the
engine operating conditions. If any of the engine
parameters extend outside an allowable range, the
ECM will initiate an immediate action.
The following actions are available for engine
monitoring control: WARNING, DERATE, and
SHUTDOWN. These engine monitoring modes have
the ability to limit engine speed and/or the engine
power.
•Engine Coolant Temperature
•Engine Oil Pressure
•Engine Speed
•Fuel Temperature
•Intake Manifold Air Temperature
•System Voltage
The Engine Monitoring package can vary for
different engine models and different engine
applications. However, the monitoring system and
the engine monitoring control will be similar for all
engines.

13
Safety Section
Engine Electronics
Note: Many of the engine control systems and
display modules that are available for Perkins
Engines will work in unison with the Engine
Monitoring System. Together, the two controls will
provide the engine monitoring function for the
specific engine application. Refer to the Electronic
Troubleshooting Manual for more information on the

associated components. When possible, remove the
component from the unit and then weld the compo-
nent. If removal of the component is not possible, the
following procedure must be followed when you weld
with a unit that is equipped with an Electronic En-
gine. The following procedure is considered to be the
safest procedure to weld a component. This proce-
dure should provide a minimum risk of damage to
electronic components.
NOTICE
Do not ground the welder to electrical components
such as the ECM or sensors. Improper grounding can
cause damage to the drive train bearings, hydraulic
components, electrical components, and other com-
ponents.
Clamp the ground cable from the welder to the com-
ponent that will be welded. Place the clamp as close
as possible to the weld. This will help reduce the pos-
sibility of damage.
1. Stop the engine. Turn the switched power to the
OFF position.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable from
the battery. If a battery disconnect switch is
provided, open the switch.
3. Disconnect the J1/P1 connectors from the ECM.

Electronic Engine Features
The Perkins 1106 Electronic Engine is designed
with electronic controls. The integral on board
computer controls the operation of the engine.
Current operating conditions are monitored. The
Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls the
response of the engine to these conditions and to
the demands of the operator. These conditions and
operator demands determine the precise control
of fuel injection by the ECM. The electronic engine
control system provides the following features:
•Engine monitoring
•Engine speed governing
•Cold start strategy
•Automatic air/fuel ratio control
•Torque rise shaping
•Automatic altitude compensation
•Fuel temperature compensation
•Injection timing control
•System diagnostics
For more information on electronic engine features,
refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual,
“Features and Controls”topic (Operation Section).
Engine Diagnostics
The engine has built-in diagnostics in order to
ensure that all of the components are functioning
properly. The operator will be informed of any
change to a programmed limit. The operator will be
alerted to the condition by a “Stop or Warning”lamp
that is mounted on the dashboard. Under certain
conditions, the engine horsepower and the vehicle
speed may be limited. The electronic service tool
may be used to display the diagnostic codes.
There are three types of diagnostic codes: active,
logged, and event.
Most of the diagnostic codes are logged and stored
in the ECM. For additional information, refer to
the Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Engine
Diagnostics”topic (Operation Section).
The ECM provides an electronic governor that
controls the injector output in order to maintain the
desired engine rpm.
Engine Cooling and Lubrication
The cooling system consists of the following
components:
•Gear-driven centrifugal water pump
•Water temperature regulators which regulate the
engine coolant temperature
•Gear-driven oil pump (gear type)
•Oil cooler

The engine lubricating oil is supplied by a gear
type pump. The engine lubricating oil is cooled
and the engine lubricating oil is filtered. Bypass
valves provide unrestricted flow of lubrication oil
to the engine parts when oil viscosity is high.
Bypass valves can also provide unrestricted flow of
lubrication oil to the engine parts if the oil cooler
should become plugged or if the oil filter element
should become plugged.
Engine efficiency, efficiency of emission
controls, and engine performance depend on
adherence to proper operation and maintenance
recommendations. Engine performance and
efficiency also depend on the use of recommended
fuels, lubrication oils, and coolants. Refer to the
Operation and Maintenance Manual, “Maintenance
Interval Schedule”for more information on
maintenance items.
Engine Service Life
Engine efficiency and maximum utilization of engine
performance depend on the adherence to proper
operation and maintenance recommendations. In
addition, use recommended fuels, coolants and
lubricants. Use the Operation and Maintenance
Manual as a guide for required engine maintenance.
Expected engine life is generally predicted
by the average power that is demanded. The
average power that is demanded is based on fuel
consumption of the engine over a period of time.
Reduced hours of operation at full throttle and/or
operating at reduced throttle settings result in a
lower average power demand. Reduced hours of
operation will increase the length of operating time
before an engine overhaul is required.
