Engine Interface
LPI interfaces with the engine at
a management level. Uniquely LPI
instructs the vehicle’s diesel injection
system to decrease or increase fuel
flow in direct ratio to the energy supplied
by the gas.
Vehicles are commissioned by loading
a file into the system’s ECU that are
appropriate to the settings of the vehicle’s
ECU and the regime of work the vehicle
normally encounters.
The Tank
The tank is especially made for the
LPI system. The tank and its internal
equipment is critical in managing LPI
and much of the time in developing the
system has been spent on its construction
and the homologation (safety testing)
protocol that it has endured. This
procedure ensures that the tank far
exceeds any standards of safety required
for those of diesel or petrol.
The tank is linked to a 4 stage LED
fuel gauge in the cabin. If the
level of gas reaches a critically low
level the system will automatically
shut down and inform the driver. The
vehicle will then return to diesel only
mode automatically.
Installation Regimes
There are three options.
- Full
Fit – Vehicle is carcassed either
on site or in our workshops by DD
engineers. The vehicle is
then commissioned by computer using
a GPS system that optimises the
system to required operational routines.
- Self-Carcass
– Vehicle is carcassed by your workshop
engineers.
The vehicle is then
quality checked and if cleared commissioned
by DD engineers. Engineers
will be trained on the first 2 vehicles
that are full-fitted.
- Self-Fit
– Vehicle is fully fitted and commissioned
by your own engineers. This
option does require extra training
and certification.
Fuller details
are available on request.
All LPI installations conform to
COP 11 standards. Self-carcassed
installations will have to pass this
standard before being commissioned by
our staff.
