Pilot Injection - SSANGYONG Rodius 2013 Manual

b. Pilot Injection
Injection before main injection. Consists of 1st and 2nd pilot injection, and Pre-injection
Inject a small amount of fuel before main injection to make the combustion smooth. Also, called as
preliminary injection or ignition injection. This helps to reduce Nox, engine noise and vibration, and to
stabilize the idling.
The injected fuel volume is changed and stopped according to the coolant temperature and intake air
volume.
Stop conditions
- Pilot injection is much earlier than main injection due to higher engine rpm
- Too small injection volume (insufficient injection pressure, insufficient fuel injection volume in
main injection, engine braking)
- System failure (fuel system, engine control system)
