  • Page 3: Lcu-One Can In Few Words

    1 – LCU-One CAN in few words LCU-One CAN is the lambda controller unit designed to work exclusively with Bosch LSU 4.9 wideband probes, which are the quickest and most accurate way to analyse exhaust gases and provide a real time parameter related to engine carburetion.
  • Page 4: What Is Lambda

    3 – What is lambda Lambda represents the ratio between actual mixture of air/fuel (A/F or AFR) admitted in the engine, compared to the optimum ratio (A/F or AFR stoichiometric) indicating an efficient fuel combustion. Lambda can be written as: where: A = parts of air (oxygen) in the combustion chamber F = parts of fuel in the combustion chamber...

    Do not clean the probe with solvents or additives, we suggest to remove it when cleaning the kart to avoid detergent pollution. Never switch the engine on if the probe is installed but not connected to a working controller LCU-One CAN. If a probe were to be exposed to exhaust gas when not heated it would be permanently damaged.
