The Caterpillar C1.5 is a 1.5 L (1,496 cc) thee-cylinders water-cooled four-stroke internal combustion diesel engine manufactured by Caterpillar Inc., for industrial applications. The Cat C1.5 engine is avalaible in naturally aspirated or turbocharged versions.
The Caterpillar C1.5 engine has a cast-iron cylinder block, indirect injection fuel system, electric starter motor and 12 Volts alternator. The Cat C1.5 engine used a belt-driven coolant pump, coolant temperature switch. This diesel motor uses closed-circuit lubrication system with spin-on lube oil filter, lube oil pressure switch, and lube oil sump.
It has an 84.0 mm (3.31 in) cylinder bore and 90.0 mm (3.54 in) piston stroke. Compression ratio rating is 22.5:1.
