2 0 1 6 V 1 | B U L L D O G | 2 1 mDRIVE HD, are receiving the following per- formance and durability updates: a rede- signed gearbox control unit, a new clutch with a larger torsional damper to help reduce vibration, the addition of compo- nent-wear monitors to enable predictive maintenance; and improvements to power take-off controls including new main cab harnesses, a reinforced range housing to handle higher PTO bending torque and an all-new, cab-mounted Body Builder Module with user-confi gured software param- eters to control engine speed and block reverse gears when the PTO is engaged. Dual PTOs are now supported as well. "PTOs are a critical component for many vocational customers," says Curtis Dorwart, vocational products marketing manager for Mack. "With the added functionality delivered by the new Body Builder Module and other improvements, we're giving customers the tools they need to be successful in nearly any application." ClearTech One The addition of the ClearTech One exhaust aftertreatment system also offers customers increased options depending on their applications. ClearTech One combines the diesel particu- late fi lter, selective catalytic reduction tech- nology and diesel exhaust fl uid dosing system into one unit, providing increased room for chassis-mounted equipment, which is often needed on work trucks and short-wheelbase tractors. Customers also will be able to choose larger fuel tanks without lengthening wheelbase. "Mack ClearTech One offers our customers a functional design, as well as another EATS option, enabling more packaging space for equipment needs while also increasing maneuverability of the vehicle," Walsh says. The smaller system allows for a shorter wheelbase, improving maneuverability, and is about 15 pounds lighter than the two-unit EATS. ClearTech One is optimized for passive regeneration and SCR performance. The SCR catalyst is mounted downstream of the DPF, preventing hydrocarbon, ash or soot from entering the system. There is no need for a second diesel oxidation catalyst before the SCR system. Mack will continue offering the two-unit ClearTech EATS for specifi c applications, including tandem steering. "Mack customers now have the opportunity to specify the design of the EATS, which better enables them to adapt the chassis to their applica- tion's unique needs," Dorwart says. mDRIVE HD, are receiving the following per- formance and durability updates: a rede- signed gearbox control unit, a new clutch housing to handle higher PTO bending torque and an all-new, cab-mounted Body Builder Module with user-confi gured software param- reverse gears when the PTO is engaged.
