Cummins ISX11.9 – the successor to the ISM for EPA 2010 (2010–2012): 11.9 litres, 310 to 500 hp, the template for the ISX12
The ISX11.9 is Cummins' answer to the US EPA 2010 emissions standard in the 12-litre class: in 2010 it replaced the 10.8-litre ISM, which had run in distribution trucks, tippers and buses since the 1990s, and adopted the architecture of the big ISX15 at a reduced scale – overhead camshaft, XPI common-rail injection, cooled EGR, particulate filter and SCR with urea. As early as 2013 it was renamed ISX12; the technology stayed, the name followed the marketing of the X programme.

The number in the name is the output in hp; suffixes such as ST, EV, R, MC or AS mark torque curves and calibrations for particular transmissions and duties. The register lists 23 versions with 315 to 479 hp at a uniform rated speed of 1,977 rpm and 1,150 to 1,650 lb-ft (1,559 to 2,237 Nm) of torque at 1,200 rpm; all certifications carry model year 2012, electronic direct injection and single-stage turbocharging, service class HHDD and in one case urban bus.
The ISX11.9 marks the transition to SCR technology in this class: for the first time it needed urea, but in return cut fuel consumption compared with the EGR-only EPA 2007 generation, and it was fitted mainly in Peterbilt, Kenworth and Freightliner distribution vehicles and in coaches.
On used engines the early SCR systems are the checkpoint: NOx sensors, dosing module and particulate filter with regeneration history; the base engine is regarded as durable if the EGR was kept clean.
