the installation cost is further reduced significantly.
Engine control integration
The PVU control system is designed based on knowl-
edge of the ME-GI engine and the PVU mechanics.
This ensures dedicated control integration between
the systems, and high gas supply control accuracy
and condition monitoring features. The engine gas
pressure and flow demands are quickly transferred to
the PVU, resulting in a stable gas pressure control, in
which it secures efficient ramp up and ramp down in
all operating conditions. Further, the GVT downstream
of the PVU is controlled by the ME-GI engine control
system, ensuring integrated control with the ME-GI
engine. The PVU control system is based on the same
hardware platform as the ME engine control system,
which means that no extra spare parts are required.
