 Gas Product Design
•Total Systems Integration
– Gaseous fuelled engine, Fuel systems, Ignition
– Alternator
– Control system, Switch-gear

State of the Art Design Features

• Gas Engine:
• Lean-Burn combustion ( = 1.8 @ T A Luft)
• Low- fuel supply pressure on QSV (150 mB)
• Ignition System:
• Variable energy spark ignition system
• Knock and misfire detection
• Control Systems:
• Closed loop control for low emission and
excellent fuel economy. Two modes: oxygen
sensor or torque over-boost.
• Complete engine/Genset monitoring system
