DCM 1.2 Injection
Program no.: 4C
Vdiag No.: 08
System outline
The DCM 1.2 injection system used on the K9K engine is an electronically-managed high pressure injection system.
The fuel is compressed by a high pressure pump then stored in a rail that feeds the injectors. Injection takes place
when a current pulse is applied to the injector holders.
The amount injected is proportional to the rail pressure and the applied pulse length, and the start of injection is
synchronised with the start of the pulse.
The system includes two subsystems, which have different fuel pressure levels:
– the low pressure circuit contains the tank, the diesel fuel filter, the transfer pump and the injector holder return pipes,
– the high pressure circuit contains the high pressure pump, the rail, the injector holders and the high pressure pipes.
The injection system contains a number of sensors and actuators for controlling and monitoring the entire system.
Functions provided
Function: Fuel supply management (timing, flow and pressure).
Quantity of fuel injected and injection timing setting
The injection checking parameters are the quantities to be injected and their respective timing.
These are calculated by the computer using signals from the following sensors:
– Engine speed (Crankshaft +Cam for synchronisation).
– Accelerator pedal.
– Turbocharging pressure and air temperature (Turbocharger pressure).
– Coolant temperature.
– Air temperature.
– Air charge (Flow and Pressure).
– Pressure in the rail.
The quantities to be injected and their respective timing are converted into:
– a reference tooth,
– the time between this tooth and the start of the pulse,
– the time for which the supply to the injector holder is on.
Each injector holder is controlled by an electrical current which is sent according to previously calculated data. The
system makes one or two injections (one pilot injection, one main injection).
The general principle is to calculate an overall injected flow, which is then divided into the main injection flow and a
pilot injection flow to promote correct combustion and help reduce pollutant emissions.
