Air Control Valve
Key information / Function
Electronic Throttle Valve for the control of the intake air on combustion engines.
Available as intelligent actuator (Smart ACV) or with integrated position sensor for external position control (ACV-S).
In combination with EGR systems the ACV provides exact control of the intake manifold pressure of diesel engines for precise control of the EGR ratio.
The particle filter regeneration is assisted by throttling intake air, providing a heat up of the exhaust gas.
Typical diesel engine vibration during engine shut-off is avoided by closing the air channel.
Application Benefits

Passengers Cars, Light Trucks


Engines:diesel (in EGR systems), gasoline (as supercharger bypass valve or intelligent idle speed actuator)


System: all

Available as smart actuator for easy integration in existing engine management systems.
Improves EGR systems to meet more stringent emission legislation.
Specifically designed for new requirements related to high boost pressures and corrosive media Capable for On Board Diagnostic (OBD).
Non contacting position sensor systems avoiding mechanical wear on the sensor system for high long term reliability.
Available as fully qualified unit with plastic housing for cost benefit.
The shut-off function in combination with low leakage allows a more comfortable design of the engine suspension.

Electronic Throttle Control
Key information / Function
The ETC actuator is the load control unit on drive-by-wire gasoline engines. It allows a driver independent control of the intake air, facilitating simpler and more economical implementation of other functions such as idle speed control, cruise control, vehicle stability control (ESP) and traction control in the engine management system.
Application Benefits
Passengers Cars, Light Trucks

Gasoline engines. All systems		Modular design concepts to allow adaptation to engine or vehicle specific demands as throttle size or mechanical interfaces.
Specifically designed for new requirements related to high boost pressures and corrosive media.
Fully designed compatible with established safety monitoring systems in drive-by-wire systems.
Capable for On Board Diagnostic (OBD).
Non contacting position sensor systems avoiding mechanical wear on the sensor system for high long term reliability.
Available as fully qualified unit with plastic housing for cost benefit.


Emission Components

Exhaust Bypass Valve
Key information / Function
The Exhaust Bypass Valve directs the exhaust gas flow either through the exhaust
cooler or through the exhaust cooler bypass channel.
Application Benefits
Light Trucks
Gasoline & Diesel direct injection engines

Easy integration into EGR cooler and flexible housing design.
Leakage to atmosphere < 0,5 kg/h @ 3 bar.
Internal MR sensor for position accuracy within 2 degrees.
Max DC motor current draw 6A, running current 2A type.
