Performance Curves

Features and Benefits

Emissions

The D1503-M engine complies with EPA / CARB interim Tier 4 + EU Stage IIIA emissions regulations.

Durable Power

The Kubota 03-M Series is well known for its industrial applications. With numerous features such as a built-in solenoid, low fan position, and single-side serviceability, this engine provides excellent performance and flexibility. The cooling water passages between the cylinder bores features Kubota’s original casting technology as a countermeasure against the heat load caused by high power density, providing both superior endurance and reliable engine performance. The D1503-M engine offers a seamless transition from EPA Tier 2 to EPA Interim Tier 4 by maintaining the same footprint and hardware mounting points with minimal performance changes from EPA Tier 2 engines.

Clean and Quiet Power

Kubota’s original E-TVCS (Three Vortex Combustion System) has been improved. The airflow, combustion chamber, and piston recess have been optimized to provide low particulate matter (PM) levels, matching the stringent level of the 37 kW class and higher (EPA Interim Tier 4 Option 1). The half-float valve cover and MoS2-coated pistons reduce noise levels compared to conventional diesel engines and decrease vibrations transmitted from the valve area, providing enhanced noise reduction.

Options

Kubota 03-M Series engines offer side power take-off (PTO) in response to the trend of the use of hydraulic control devices in industrial machines. A hydraulic pump can be installed at the two side PTO locations.
