Reducing particulates and optimising fuel consumption are primary reasons for adding high pressure common rail (HPCR) systems to an engine. The HPCR is used in diesel engines across our range, providing improved fuel efficiency through a more efficient combustion process.
Fuel is distributed to the fuel injectors from a high pressure accumulator, called the rail, which isfed by a high pressure fuel pump. Rail pressure and injection timing are electronically controlled.
HPCR fuel systems can provide a cleaner and more fuel efficient combustion process with improved performance, fuel efficiency and particulate matter reduction.
HPCR fuel systems improve engine performance through more efficient combustion and can be more fuel efficient than other systems.
Due to stable pilot injections, your engine will be quieter and produce fewer nitrogen oxides(NOx), reducing the aftertreatment requirements to meet various global emission standards.
A high pressure common rail:
If you’re using a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system you need diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) for the system to work.
Learn MoreA diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) is an aftertreatment component that is designed to convert carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and water.
Learn MoreOur diesel particulate filter (DPF) solutions capture a high percentage of particulate matter or soot.
Learn MoreA series turbo set-up involves two turbochargers installed to operate in sequence.
Learn MorePassive regeneration is an approach used to oxidise particulate matter (PM) in the diesel particulate filter (DPF).
Learn MoreOne of the options available for reducing NOx emissions is selective catalytic reduction (SCR), used on a number of our engines.
Learn MoreOne of the technologies available for the reduction of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) is exhaust gas recirculation (EGR).
