Introduction
This Special Instruction describes the installation of the Hydrax system on G3606 and on G3608 Engines. The Hydrax system replaces the electronic actuators that control the fuel, the wastegate, and the choke. The Hydrax system improves the reliability of the engine and the system reduces maintenance costs.
Whenever questions arise about this product or about this Special Instruction, consult your local Caterpillar dealer for the latest available information.
Do not perform any procedure that is outlined in this Special Instruction and do not order any parts until the entire instruction has been read and understood.

System Description

Hydraulic Actuator System (1) Position feedback sensor (2) Fuel actuator (3) Pressure relief valve (4) Wastegate actuator (5) Box for the hydrax driver modules (6) Hydraulic pump (7) Hydraulic tank (8) Hydraulic oil filter (9) Accumulator (10) Check valve (11) Pressure switch (12) Air choke actuator |
The Hydrax system controls fuel actuator (2), wastegate actuator (4), and air choke actuator (12) by using individual electronically controlled hydraulic actuators.
The system uses engine oil or hydraulic oil for the hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic pump (6) is driven by the engine. The pump provides the required fluid pressure. The pump is gear-driven from the engine front gear train. The pump is mounted behind the engine oil pump. The pump will provide hydraulic fluid at approximately 8 gpm at 1000 rpm engine speed.
Hydraulic tank (7) stores the hydraulic fluid. Check valve (10) keeps the oil from draining from the system. This provides better response characteristics.
Accumulator (9) is a nitrogen charged bottle which helps maintain the system pressure. The accumulator maintains the system pressure for a short period of time after an engine shutdown condition is requested. This allows the occurrence of a proper shutdown sequence.
Pressure switch (11) protects the engine in case of a reduction in the system pressure. The switch activates a warning if the system pressure drops below
A hydraulic oil filter is inside housing (8).
Pressure relief valve (3) is in parallel with the three actuators. The pressure relief valve is manually adjusted at rated engine speed in order to obtain a system pressure of
The actuators are electronically controlled. The engine's control system sends commands to three hydrax driver modules inside box (5). The modules convert the signals for use by the actuators.
Position feedback sensors (2) are connected to the linkage for each of the actuators. The feedback signals are sent to the hydrax driver modules. The signals from the driver modules are monitored by the Electronic Control Module.
Note: The hydrax driver modules, the position feedback sensors, and the accumulator are not required if the engine will be equipped with the ADEM III control system.
The hydraulic actuators, the position feedback sensors, and the driver modules are interchangeable. This simplifies troubleshooting the system.

Order a New Personality Module
A new personality module is required in order to make the engine compatible with the new actuators. In ordertoproperly define the configuration for the new personality module, a "Personality Module Request Form" must be submitted to the Service Center at Caterpillar Diversified Power Products. The Service Center will respond with the appropriate part number that can be ordered through the parts system.
Illustration 2 is the "Personality Module Request Form". The form includes all of the information that is required in order to process your request.

Note: All dimensions are for reference.
- Remove the connecting rod assembly by disconnecting the assembly at locations (X).
- Loosen nut (2).
- Loosen bolt (1) so that the bolt does not interfere with the closing of the choke plate. Fully close the choke plate. Carefully tighten bolt (1) until the bolt makes contact with stop plate (3).
- Tighten bolt (1) for an additional full turn. Carefully tighten nut (2) to the required torque. The choke plate is now at the proper setting.
- Fully close the choke plate. Fully retract the actuator. Adjust each end of the connecting rod assembly so that the assembly can be reinstalled. Adjust each rod end in order to provide equal thread engagement on each rod end.
- Reinstall the connecting rod assembly.
- Extend the actuator in ordertofully open the choke plate. While the actuator is fully extended and the plates are in contact, shorten the length of the connecting rod by half a turn. This will create a small gap between the two full open stop plates. Tighten the nuts on the connecting rod assembly in order to lock the length of the assembly.
- Move the linkage through the entire range. Ensure that the choke plate can reach the full closed stop. Make sure that the actuator does not force the plate past the full open stop when the choke is fully open.

- Fully close the wastegate. Fully extend the actuator. Reinstall the linkage. Remove all of the slack in the linkage. Adjust each rod end in order to provide equal thread engagement on each rod end.
- Turn a rod end on the upper linkage rod by two full turns in ordertoslightly open the wastegate's plate. Tighten the nuts on the connecting rods in order to lock the lengths of the assemblies.
Note: The wastegate may stick if the plate touches the housing.
- Move the linkage through the entire range. Ensure that the wastegate's plate does not touch the housing when the wastegate is fully closed.
Linkage for the Fuel Actuator
- Disconnect the linkage at location (X).
- Fully close the fuel valve. Fully extend the actuator. Adjust each connecting rod assembly so that all of the slack is removed. Adjust each rod end in order to provide equal thread engagement on each rod end. Reconnect the linkage.
- Move the linkage through the entire range. Ensure that the fuel valve can fully open and fully close. Make additional adjustments in order to ensure that the fuel valve will fully open and fully close.
- Perform the following procedure in order to ensure that the actuator is not pushing rod (2) too far into the fuel valve.
- Fully extend the actuator in order to close the valve. Disconnect the linkage at location (X). Rotate clevis (1) half of a turn so that the clevis pulls rod (2) out of the valve.
- Reconnect the linkage.
- Ensure that the metering valve can still reach the full open position.
- If the engine will not be converted to the ADEM III system, continue with this Special Instruction. Refer to "Install the Electrical Components". If the engine will be converted to the ADEM III system, discontinue this Special Instruction and refer to the Special Instruction, REHS1708 for instructions on the installation of the ADEM III system.

Prime the Hydraulic System
- Ensure that the manual gas shutoff valve is OFF.
- Fill the hydraulic tank. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, SEBU6278, "Refill Capacities".
- Install a pressure gauge in the oil lines near the hydrax oil pressure switch. The gauge must have a range of
0 to 2068 kPa (0 to 300 psi) .Note: Step 4 may take more than a total of 50 seconds of cranking. Do not crank the engine more than 15 seconds at a time.
- In order to prime the hydraulic circuit, the engine must be cranked with the manual gas shutoff valve in the OFF position. Crank the engine in order to build the pressure of the oil to a value between
1034 kPa (150 psi) to1379 kPa (200 psi) . This is adequate pressure in order to attempt a start.
Initial Start-up of the Engine
- Turn the manual gas shutoff valve to the OPEN position.
- Start the engine. Bring the engine up to high idle (900 rpm to 1000 rpm).
- Inspect the hydrax system for oil leaks. Make repairs, if necessary.
Adjust the Hydraulic Pressure
Note: The hydraulic oil must be near the operating temperature prior to making this adjustment.
Operate the engine at the rated speed. No load on the engine is required for an accurate pressure setting. Adjust the hydraulic pressure by performing the following procedure.
- Loosen locknut (1).
- Turn adjustment screw (2) in order to obtain a system pressure of
1550 kPa (225 psi) . - Tighten the locknut. Verify that the pressure has not drifted.
- Shut down the engine. Remove the oil pressure gauge from the system.
