EFI Control

EFI Control

With HEINZMANN control systems for locomotives with electronic fuel injection, you can implement all relevant injection processes for your diesel engine.These include complete common rail systems with all the necessary CR system components or the electronic control of pump-line-nozzle systems (E-PPN). In diesel-electric locomotives, they combine speed governing of the prime engine and a load control of a traction generator (AC/DC) – for maximal performance with variable excitation control.

  • Precise speed governing
  • Continuous reliable operation
  • Application-specific control, protection and monitoring functions.
