Description of component(s)
Operation
The internal plunger is actuated via a roller lifter on the camshaft. Each pump has three pump events every two crankshaft revolutions.
Fuel from the fuel gallery can enter the pump plunger area via an internal valve.
A pump event starts when the plunger travels up, the PCI ECU activates the solenoid briefly, and the internal valve closes the opening to the fuel gallery. The internal valve is kept closed hydraulically, and the fuel is pumped to the rail via a check valve in the outlet bore of the pump unit.
The pump event stops when the roller lifter passes the top of the camshaft lobe, causing the plunger to travel downward again. Due to this, the pressure above the plunger decreases and the internal valve opens the opening to the fuel gallery. The check valve in the outlet bore closes and prevents fuel from flowing back from the rail to the plunger area.
Control
The amount of fuel pumped to the rail depends on the duration of the pump event.
The earlier the solenoid is activated by the PCI ECU in the up stroke of the pump plunger, the more (mg/stroke) fuel is pumped to the rail.
Effect on the system:
* Rail pressure control.
The rail pressure is closed-loop controlled. A comparison is made between the actual rail pressure and rail pressure demands determined by the ECU. The rail pressure is adjusted by pumping more or less fuel to the rail with the common rail pump units.
