NL944T3 Specifiation Sheet

Product catalog summary
Engine Block
- The NL944T3 features a Lugger, four-cycle, 4-cylinder, liquid-cooled, turbocharged diesel engine with overhead valves, designed for industrial use. It includes two valves per cylinder, a double wall oil pan, and a crankshaft made of induction-hardened, forged carbon steel for enhanced strength. Helical cut and ground carbon steel timing gears are used to reduce noise, and a cross-flow head ensures efficient breathing.

Cooling System
- The engine is liquid-cooled with a radiator and pusher cooling fan, including a radiator shroud and fan hand guard.

Fuel System
- It employs direct injection with glow plugs, a Bosch-type in-line injection pump with a 5% mechanical governor for precise AC output frequency control, pintle type injectors, and a mechanical fuel lift pump with a hand primer. The system includes a large spin-on fuel filter and flexible fuel lines routed to the base. A stop solenoid controls the fuel rack for rapid engine shutdowns.

Intake and Exhaust
- The engine meets US EPA interim Tier IV emission requirements and includes a large air cleaner with a replaceable filter element.

Lubrication System
- Features a full-flow, spin-on oil filter.

DC Electrical System
- Utilizes reliable relays instead of unrepairable printed circuit boards, with a 12-volt starter and battery charging alternator with a regulator. The standard panel includes an hour meter, shutdown bypass, stop-start switch, and preheat switch. Low oil pressure and high coolant temperature shutdowns are standard.

AC Generator
- The generator is a Northern Lights, direct-coupled, 4-pole, revolving field generator with Class H insulation and pre-lubricated, double-sealed bearings. It is brushless and maintenance-free, with a 12-lead, 3-phase standard. It has a conservative temperature rise rating of 105°C/40°C, suitable for extreme climates and continuous operation. An Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) provides quick +/-1% RMS no-load to full-load voltage regulation. High airflow from a cast aluminum fan keeps the generator cool, and a terminal strip in the j-box allows easy voltage changes and connection to the AC distribution system.

Special Equipment
- The unit includes a steel base frame for rigid support and easy installation, vibration mounts for smooth operation, and a long-life Imron® enamel finish for excellent service visibility. Operator’s and parts manuals are standard, with optional availability on CD-ROM. Each set is test run on a load bank.

Dimensions and Output
- Overall dimensions are 64.8 x 25.6 x 35.8 inches (1647 x 650 x 910 mm). The AC output is 36 kW at 60 Hz and 32 kW at 50 Hz, with optional single-phase output. Voltage regulation is ±1%.

Engine Specifications
- The Lugger L944 engine is a vertical inline 4-cylinder diesel with a displacement of 203 cubic inches (3.33 liters) and a bore/stroke of 3.70/4.72 inches (94/120 mm). It is turbocharged with a Bosch-type inline injection pump. Approximate fuel use is 2.8 gph (8.6 lph) at full load and 1.5 gph (5.3 lph) at half load at 1800 RPM, and 2.3 gph (7.4 lph) at full load and 1.2 gph (4.2 lph) at half load at 1500 RPM.

Installation Data & Weight
- Fuel inlet and return are 1/4 inch NPT, with an approximate dry weight of 1390 lbs (630 kg). Deratings include 3% per 1000 ft. over 500 feet above sea level and 1.5% for every 10° over 77°F.
