Modern commercial vehicles with Electronic Diesel Control (EDC) fuel systems can be optimized by adapting the engine control unit. This method, also know as Performance Tuning leads to improved performance.
For transport companies it is important that these improvements produce operational costs benefits. With performance tuning a new method is introduced to measure the truck performance, plan the right optimization setting for your vehicle and prove the benefits.
CFC Systems makes it possible to run conventional Diesel engines, for example as used in trucks, on a mixture of Diesel and LPG. This concept results in a 15-20% reduction in fuel consumption and a significant reduction in exhaust pollution.
Depending on the age and condition of a diesel engine, between 85 to 90% of the engine’s fuel is actually burned, with 10 to 15% remaining unused. By adding a controlled amount of LPG into the inlet manifold, it is possible to significantly improve the efficiency of the combustion. The LPG ignited by the burning Diesel burns relatively slow, causing a more complete combustion of the fuel, resulting in a 98% Diesel combustion efficiency.
