The control valves produce a pressure drop in the engine for recirculation of exhaust gases and on compression, ignition diesel engines ensure efficient and effective engine switch-off.
The actuators on the intake manifold adjust the tumble valves in the manifold for improved air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber.
The electric switchover valves are needed for regulating the EGR cooler bypass, while also ensuring reduced NOx emissions.
Part of the valves will sourced locally from Pierburg’s Chinese plant in Kunshan, starting in 2018 and another from the German plant in Berlin.
