System of preheat of the diesel engine

On the cold engine ignition temperature by only one compression is not reached, so the engine requires Preheat.

With this purpose in each combustion chamber glow plug is screwed. Candle consists of a housing and drive shaft of the heat. When voltage is applied thermal winding core for a few seconds warmed to a temperature of + 850 ?� C, so the duration of preheat to run is rarely longer than 10 seconds. When the preheat indicator lamp on the instrument panel goes out, the engine can be started.

For quick warm Preheat the engine running and the engine starts. The duration of preheat control unit is adjusted depending on the temperature of the coolant. Device management is behind the center console below the air channel.

Prednakalom control unit receives information about the temperature of the engine coolant temperature sensor. Based on the data control unit determines the duration of preheat and the current value.
