The QSM not only meets Tier 3 and Stage IIIA emissions standards, it uses in-cylinder technology, a simple and cost-effective solution that maintains the proven performance, dependability and durability of the QSM while operating cleanly and efficiently.

Every day, QSM engines are put to the test in farm machinery worldwide. With superior performance that's the result of advanced in-cylinder combustion technology and our responsive wastegated turbo. Both emissions and efficiency are optimized by the QSM's electronically controlled unit injectors, with cam-driven rate shaping.

In addition to providing exceptional reliability and durability, the advanced design of the QSM ensures that maintenance is kept to an absolute minimum. With oil change intervals that are double the previous standards in some applications and an auto-tensioning belt drive.

Available in a range of ratings from 290-400 hp (216-298 kW), the QSM was the first engine in the industry to be certified to EPA Tier 3 levels.

To ensure that every QSM is perfectly matched to every piece of equipment, Cummins PowerMatch and Advisor are ready to provide expert assistance with your spec'ing and installation process.

The QSM comes with virtually every feature standard. Plus, an optional REPTO (Rear Engine Power Take-Off) adds capacity for driving remote-mounted devices.

Every QSM engine is covered by Cummins three-step warranty, one of the most comprehensive and simplest plans in the industry.

The in-cylinder combustion technology, high-pressure injection system and electronic controls of the QSM not only ensure clean operation that meets Tier 3 emissions standards, but also ensures powerful and efficient operation every time. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) continuously monitors data, optimizing the fuel-to-air mixture for maximum combustion. This increases engine responsiveness, improves fuel efficiency and significantly reduces noise levels.

The QSM Quantum System provides superior fuel economy with strong engine performance, engine protection and other programmable features. Components include:
  • Wastegated Turbo - Designed for optimum boost, it improves throttle response across operating range
  • The Venturi™ Oil Filter and Lube System - 10-micron LF9001 filter from Fleetguard combines with a new lubrication system. Can double oil change intervals - up to 700 hours in some applications
  • CELECT™ Electronic Engine Management - Provides superior performance, fuel efficiency, diagnostics and prognostics using full-authority electronics. Its programmable features let you customize engine performance to equipment use
  • High-Capacity ECM - New space-efficient Electronic Control Module packs ten times more memory and ten times more processing power
  • Sealed Sensors - Fully sealed to resist water intrusion. Combined temperature and pressure sensors reduce inventory and simplify maintenance with increased reliability
  • Advanced Combustion Technology - Optimized injector tips and a reshaped steel piston bowl improve fuel economy and emissions control with longer oil change intervals
  • Articulated Pistons and Liners - Steel-topped pistons handle higher cylinder temperatures for improved fuel efficiency and emissions control. Patented mid-stop cylinder liners resist cavitation and extend life-to-overhaul
  • The Auto-Tensioning Belt Drive - Self-adjusting for optimum tension, which increases fan, alternator and fan belt life
  • Improved Camshaft Durability - Exhaust valve lobes are designed to improve wear tolerance. The injector lobe profile has been revised to optimize injection

The QSM was designed to deliver more time on the job and less time being serviced. Maintenance intervals have been made longer, and service has been made simpler.

Cummins QSM engines feature a Fleetguard® Venturi™ oil filter in combination with an improved lube system that increases oil flow, reduces lubrication delay at start-up and improves protection. This system allows for oil change intervals of up to 700 hours in some applications.

Getting every installation right - the first time - is as important to Cummins as it is to you. PowerMatch and Advisor help ensure that we get it right, every time.

PowerMatch.

Cummins PowerMatch helps OEMs optimize engine performance so you can lower fuel consumption, increase operator satisfaction, improve equipment life and protect the customer's investment. PowerMatch tailors engine performance to specific equipment models and applications. Advanced electronics are used to enhance power curves and trim ratings, matching the job the equipment will be doing while taking into account variables such as work environment, load factors, ambient temperature and altitude. PowerMatch can also be used to create a unique torque curve, set up alternate governor settings or set up engine protection features.

Advisor.

Advisor puts a virtual engineer on the OEM team to shorten engineering cycle times and reduce costs. Cummins Advisor models equipment installation for exceptional productivity, reliability and durability. After a comprehensive review of load factors, climates, duty cycle and equipment usage, Cummins Advisor recommends the best engine and rating match for the equipment and operating conditions. It then builds a virtual model of the intake, exhaust, cooling, fuel and mounting systems. When Advisor identifies an issue, it lists acceptable alternatives. This approach allows changes while the equipment design is still "on paper," ensuring optimum performance while minimizing costs. Every time.
