The ESI Phoenix NG 7.6L is a dedicated natural gas OEM engine that utilizes a very reliable and popular diesel engine as its base platform.  ESI manufactures and re-designs the previous older dirty diesel engine utilizing patented technology, cryogenically treated components, a state-of-the-art Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and a fly-by-wire electronic throttle body for improved performance and durability.  The ECU provides ignition, fuel control and employs “look-ahead” adaptive learn technology to optimize engine performance and emission across the full spectrum of load conditions



Product Benefits  

  • Ultra-low emissions, now
  • Excellent torque, high fuel efficiency and reliable, robust performance
  • Emerging economic advantages (not a fix a solution)
  • Added driver and passenger comfort with reduced engine noise and odor
  • Compliant for local, state and federal government funding
  • A replacement of older heavy duty diesel engines (no landfill issues)
  • Simply a cleaner solution for the atmosphere, personnel and maintenance facilities

 



ESI Engine and Emission Warranty

 

24 MONTHS / UNLIMITED MILEAGE

Provides warranty protection against defects in material and workmanship for 24 months/unlimited mileage for all internal engine components plus the following:

1. Engine Block, Head and all internal parts of the engine
2. Water Pump
3. Cylinder Head and Sleeves
4. Intake/Exhaust Manifold
5. Bell Housing
6. Pressure regulator and Injectors
7. Turbo Charger/waste gate

Emission Warranty

Provides Warranty protection against defect in material and workmanship 5 years/100,000 miles, which ever occurs first for the emission control system.

The most attractive feature of the ESI Phoenix NG 7.6L natural gas engines today is a cost-effective robust heavy-duty engine with proven high-performance and very low emissions. The major chemical contributors to ground-level ozone are hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Particulate emissions have been associated with public health concerns. For these reasons, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other environmental air quality regulatory bodies have targeted NOx, HC and particulate (PM) emissions from mobile and stationary sources


Service Intervals

ESI brings many features together to deliver reliability and cost effectiveness. Our advanced electronics and excellent engine management controls have allowed us to extend oil maintenance intervals up to 50,000 miles and spark plug changes up to 100,000 miles in service delivery applications. The advanced electronics package also lets your maintenance people diagnose and repair problems quickly and efficiently. Diesel-like fuel economy, longer service intervals, easier servicing, less downtime and longer engine life - they all add up to lower operating costs for your fleet.

Government Incentives

The following are selected states that offer clean air incentives; Please see the Web site http://www.eere.energy.gov/cleancities/vbg/progs/laws.cgi to select other State Incentives or US Federal Incentives.


Texas

  • Texas is the proud home of the Alamo Area, Central Texas, Dallas/Fort Worth, Greater Houston Regional, Paso del Norte, Inc., Laredo, and South East Texas Clean Cities Coalitions. Coordinator contact information is listed at the bottom of the page under Points of Contact. Please see Web site http://www.eere.energy.gov/cleancities/vbg/progs/laws.cgi for more information. Point cursor on Texas and click on "Select." The following are a few incentives offered by TCEQ.
  • The Texas Emissions Reduction Plan (TERP) is a comprehensive set of incentive programs aimed at improving air quality in Texas. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) administers TERP grants and other financial TERP incentives.
  • The School Bus Rebate Program provides incentives to organizations that incorporate liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) buses into their fleets.



California

  • California is the proud home of the San Joaquin Valley, Southern California Association of Governments, Antelope Valley, Long Beach, Los Angeles, East Bay, Northwest Riverside County, Greater Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, Clean Cities Coachella Valley Region, and Silicon Valley Clean Cities Coalitions. Coordinator contact information is listed at the bottom of the page under Points of Contact.
  • Local Air Pollution Control Districts (APCDs) and Air Quality Management Districts (AQMDs) offer a variety of incentives for alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs). Please see the Points of Contacts section below or visit the California Air District Resource Directory at www.arb.ca.gov/capcoa/roster.htm and http://www.eere.energy.gov/cleancities/vbg/progs/laws.cgi for more information. Please point cursor to California and click on Select.
  • Selected State Incentives
    • The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program provides funds on an incentive-basis for the incremental cost of cleaner than required engines and equipment. Eligible projects include cleaner on-road, off-road, marine, locomotive and stationary agricultural pump engines, as well as forklifts, airport ground support equipment, and auxiliary power units. The Carl Moyer Program provides funds for significant near-term reductions in emissions of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and also for reductions of particulate matter (PM) emissions. The Moyer Program also includes the Advanced Technology Development Program and the Fuel Infrastructure Demonstration Program, which are administered by the California Energy Commission (CEC); however, these latter two programs do not currently have any allocated funding. Additionally, the Carl Moyer program has been expanded to include heavy-duty fleet modernization projects that reduce emissions of NOx or particulate matter, projects for cars and light-duty trucks, and projects that reduce hydrocarbon particulate matter pollution. Carl Moyer Program grants are issued locally by air pollution control districts and air quality management districts in California. For more information, please contact the California Air Resources Board (ARB) at 800-242-4450 (regular business hours) or 800-END-SMOG (after hours), or visit the Web site at www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/moyer/moyer.htm. (Reference California Health and Safety Code Section 44280, Proposition 40, 2002, Assembly Bill (AB) 1394, 2004).
