EFI Control of Locomotive Drives - HEINZMANN GmbH & Co. KG

HEINZMANN - Experts for rail traction applications

HEINZMANN control systems for locomotives with EFI feature precise speed governing and stable and reliable operation. Depending on application, they provide the required governing, protection and monitoring functions. 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.

DARDANOS Controls for Electronic Fuel Injection

The DARDANOS range includes universal EFI control units for engines with electronically controlled injection systems. These solenoid valve control systems are primarily used to control the speed. They help to optimise fuel consumption and this, in turn, results in less environmentally harmful emissions. They can also be used for basic monitoring functions, thereby increasing the operational reliability and availability of engines.

Can be configured to suit specific applications

MVC 01-24

A solenoid valve control system for industrial diesel, gas and dual-fuel engines with a maximum of 24 cylinders. Enables up to seven precise injections per cylinder and stroke; large number of I/Os enables optimum engine operation and monitoring; can be used with any control system based on solenoid valves; combined with MEGASOL injection valves for gas injection systems. What’s more, up to 3 actuators can be actuated directly, for instance to control the air volume (throttle valve, turbocharger bypass, wastegates). It can be expanded as a redundant system for use in ship engines.

Common Rail Systems

ODYSSEUS Common Rail Systems include all components for pressure generation, fuel storage and injection, thereby guaranteeing optimum connectivity and compatibility. In conjunction with DARDANOS control units, the hydromechanical precision components provide an integrated solution for state-of-the-art combustion engines.

E-PPN Systems

LAVINIA, the electronically controlled E-PPN (electronic pump pipe nozzle) system, has been designed as an extension for existing mechanical injection systems. It centres around a magnetically actuated control valve that is integrated into the high-pressure fuel line in diesel engines. The LAVINIA E-PPN system expands the existing fuel system in order to benefit from flexible injection control and can be used both for new engines and for retrofits.

Retrofit SolUtions

HEINZMANN develops universal retrofit solutions for end users as well as for OEMs. Conversion to common rail injection or E-PPN fuel injection systems delivers excellent results in terms of engine optimisation, fuel savings, noise behaviour and emissions.
