Exhaust gas recirculation

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The valve is controlled by an RCO signal issued by the
injection computer. The RCO signal permits
modulation of the opening of the valve, and
consequently, the quantity of exhaust gas directed
back towards the inlet manifold.
The computer continuously carries out a test to detect
the position of the EGR valve flap.
OPERATING CONDITIONS
The parameters which determine the actuation of the
EGR valve are as follows:
– the coolant temperature,
– the air temperature,
– the air pressure,
– the accelerator pedal position,
– the engine speed.
The EGR function is cut if:
– the battery voltage is less than 9 volts,
– the engine speed is greater than 3000 rpm.,
– a characteristics map (engine speed/load) exceeds a
given threshold,
– the vehicle speed is less than 12 km/h, the engine
speed is less than 1000 rpm and if the coolant
temperature is greater than 60 ˚C for 40 seconds.
The EGR valve is not supplied after engine start
according to a coolant temperature characteristics
map.
time (s)The electric EGR valve is supplied for 40 seconds on
each return to idling speed if the air temperature is
greater than 15 ˚C.
