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 and can be used both for new diesel engines and for retrofits. Thanks to the precise actuation by a solenoid valve control unit, the system offers all the advantages of an electronic fuel control system to ensure optimised combustion under all operating conditions.
