The C15 also features a 5,000-hour DPF service interval and DEF capacity of 93.7 liters, giving machine operators the opportunity to spend more time on the job site and less time in the shop.
Ideal Applications
Industrial, agricultural and construction applications such as: Compressors • Trenchers • Chippers • Grinders • Irrigation equipment • Bore rigs • Drill rigs • Pumps • Hydraulic power units
Total Cost of Ownership
Operators know the true costs of owning an engine goes beyond the rough and reliable exterior. That's why the Cat C15 was developed to optimize fluid consumption based on a wide range of operating cycles and applications. And with 500-hour maintenance intervals, owners can keep parts and service costs low.
Cat Dealer Product Support
Say goodbye to complicated service routines and start enjoying scheduled maintenance and worldwide dealer support with the Cat C15. Not only does the engine come with a warranty, it’s also backed by the Cat dealer support network across 192 countries. See your Cat dealer for details.
