3239201 - Introduction - ENGINE AIR SUPPLY CIRCUIT

CONSTRUCTION FEATURES

The intake air is filtered and directed to the exhaust gas turbocharger.Before reaching the engine, the compressed air is cooled in the air/air heat exchanger.

BUTTERFLY CASING

Construction features

To reduce engine noise when it is being switched off (noise produced by the DVA flywheel), a throttle has been introduced in the inlet manifold with the task of stopping the flow of air to the cylinders.

Composition

the system consists of:
1. Air filter 2. Air flow meter 3. Cold air intake 4. Air-air heat exchanger (intercooler) 5. Air hose with resonator 6. Turbocharger air inlet corrugated hose 7. Pressurized air flexible hose for intercooler 8. Pressurized air flexible hose for intake chamber

Operation

With the engine switched off, the butterfly is open because there is no vacuum.With the engine running, the throttle is open because, as the Pierburg solenoid valve is not supplied, it prevents the vacuum from reaching the pneumatic actuator.The vacuum accumulates in the reservoir whilst the engine is running.Whilst the engine is being switched off (when the key is turned to the OFF position), the control unit keeps the actuator relay feed supplied for 4 or 5 seconds and, at the same time, places the Pierburg solenoid valve to earth which, on opening, sends the vacuum, which has accumulated in the vacuum reservoir, to the pneumatic actuator which closes the throttle interrupting the flow of air to the cylinders.
