According to Cummins, customers can specify a 50-state Clean Idle Certified engine option when ordering or can opt to update existing 2007 engines to meet the 50-state status.

In addition, Cummins introduced two new ComfortGuard APU solutions at the meeting, also aimed at meeting CARB idle-reduction regulations. The products are available with two options to meet the emissions standards: a stand-alone particulate filter on the ComfortGuard APU engine or an engine installation kit to route the ComfortGuard diesel exhaust gas into the particulate filter.
