Fuel-injection management: Commercial vehicles |

|
 |
|
|
|
Fuel-injection management describes the process and equipment involved in the transfer of fuel from the tank into the combustion chamber: |
|
|
|
 |
The low-pressure pump forces the fuel from the tank into the pressure chamber of the high-pressure pump. |
|
|
|
The high-pressure pump compresses the fuel. |
|
|
|
Mechanically or electronically triggered valves meter the correct amount of compressed fuel to the engine at the correct moment in time. |
|
|
|
The fuel is then injected into the combustion chamber through the nozzles. |
