REMAN EMCP ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNITS (ECU)

Announcement

Cat Reman announces the expansion of their Remanufactured ECU product line with the addition of another 10 EMCP Reman controls and modules. These additional offerings complement the existing coverage offered for PEEC, ADEM? A1, ADEM A2, and MAC 14 controls. The EMCP family of ECUs is used primarily in commercial and genset applications.

Through state-of-the-art recycling and remanufacturing techniques, these ECUs lower owning and operating costs. The ECUs are upgraded to the current product capability and carry the standard Caterpillar? parts warranty. Additional product offerings are coming. Please consult the Caterpillar NPR or the Cross Reference link on the Reman Dealer Extranet for product coverage and cross-reference.
