2889414 - E5050 DIESEL ENGINES ELECTRONIC MANAGEMENT - Description (Euro 3)

Description

An electronic management system supervises and governs all engine parameters. It optimises performance and fuel consumption by responding in real time to different service conditions.The Diesel engine is fitted with a COMMON RAIL UNIJET injection system. - This uses high injection pressure controlled electronically. Fuel delivery, termed a pilot injection, is optimised by the electronic control unit via the injector and not managed by the pump.

The system uses signals received from numerous sensors to control actuators. It is connected to the following systems:

  • fuel supply;
  • air supply system;
  • heater plugs;
  • accelerator pedal;
  • engine cooling;
  • fuel preheating.
For greater detail, see  Characteristic of working principle 1060  DIESEL FUEL INJECTION .

Description

Thanks to the electronic management described above, this engine conforms to the latest anti-pollution and continuous control regulations in accordance with the EOBD system (European On Board Diagnosis); The EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) system carries out continuous diagnosis of the car's petrol fuel system components relating to emissions and indicates any deterioration of these components by the warning light in the instrument panel coming on.

The aim of the system is:

  • keeping the efficiency of the system under control;
  • signalling an increase in emissions due to a vehicle malfunction;
  • signalling the need to replace components which have deteriorated.

Description

The system is also controlled by means of special relays located in the engine compartment in the relay and fuse box.The supply lines for the control unit and the various system components (sensors and actuators) are protected by a special maxifuse and other fuses, also located in the above mentioned box.The pre-heating system is protected by a special maxifuse located next to the box in question.
