Classification of Electric Fuel Pumps for Electronic Fuel Injection Engines

The electric fuel pump is the "heart" of the fuel supply system in electronic fuel injection engines. The electric fuel pump is a device that continuously draws fuel out of the tank and provides the fuel system with a specified pressure and flow rate. Based on the function of the electric fuel pump, it is known that the performance of the electric fuel pump will directly affect the working performance of the engine.

Electric fuel pump: Electric fuel pumps do have some advantages compared to mechanical ones. After being powered on, the electric fuel pump can operate independently. After turning on the switch, they can pump fuel: mechanical fuel pumps require the diesel engine to start or run before delivering fuel. Another advantage is that the installation position of the electric fuel pump is further away from the engine, so that the heat generated by the engine will not cause the oil pump to produce steam, thus reducing the risk of air resistance. Electric fuel pumps can better cooperate with cars equipped with computer control systems. In addition, electric fuel pumps consume less frictional power. Electric fuel pumps can also generate higher pressure than mechanical fuel pumps: depending on the engine and manufacturer, the average pump pressure is 15-60 psu.

The following types of electric fuel pumps are commonly used: bellows type and impeller blade type.

The displayed circuit controls the electric fuel pump: the current is output from the battery and then flows to the melting line (in the middle of the figure). The fusible link is connected to the fuel pump relay. When the ignition switch is turned on, the coil inside the ECC power relay is energized, causing the ECC power relay switch to close. When the power relay switch is closed, the fuel pump relay coil will continue to be energized. Once powered on, the pump relay switch will close, and then the current will pass through a normally closed delay switch. Subsequently, the current flows to the electric fuel pump, causing the pump motor to operate.

The delay switch is a safety device that will disconnect the circuit in case of accidental impact or accident to the engine. This prevents the fuel pump from continuing to deliver or splashing fuel in the event of a collision.

Bellows type electric fuel pump. A metal bellows is used instead of a diaphragm in the fuel flow of corrugated fuel from the fuel tank to the fuel tank in the carburetor tube type electric fuel pump. Stretching or compressing corrugated pipes can generate suction and pressure. The corrugated tube electric fuel pump shown in Figure 4-11 uses electromagnetic coils to raise or lower the corrugated tube. When current passes through the electromagnetic coil, the armature is attracted to move downwards, causing the metal bellows to elongate and the vacuum to suck in fuel. When the armature reaches its lowest point, the electromagnetic coil is grounded, the current is disconnected, and then the return spring pushes the bellows upward, thereby generating pressure that forces fuel to flow out of the fuel pump and into the carburetor.

Diesel Generator Power Ratings: Standby vs Prime vs Continuous

Diesel generator sets are commonly used in a variety of sectors due to their dependable performance and high efficiency. They can be used for emergency power supply in the event of a power cut or used in places without connection to a power grid. When selecting a diesel generator for your home or business, you need to consider many factors, such as generator’s ratings. In this article, we’ll explain the three basic rating types - standby, prime, and continuous in diesel generators. ISO-8528-1:2018 defines basic generator set rating categories based on four operational categories: Emergency Standby Power (ESP), Prime Power (PRP), Continuous Power (COP) and Limited-Time Running Prime (LTP). Read on and learn the application of power ratings for engines used in generating sets. Standby Power Rating Standby Power(ESP) is used to supply emergency power when the external power supply is interrupted, such as power outages. Standby power rated generators can supply reliable electricity as t...

How to Choose a Household Mini Generator

With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more household appliances, such as rice cookers, microwaves, kettles, refrigerators, air - conditioners, washing machines, etc. It can be said that every household has them. But what if there is a power outage? These appliances won't work properly, and our lives will be greatly disrupted. How can we avoid this? We can use household mini - generators to provide convenience in power consumption. So, how to choose a good household mini - generator? Consider the noise level Since it is for household use, when choosing a household mini - generator, we need to check whether the noise will affect the neighbors. Generally, the seller will demonstrate the performance of the generator in advance. A good household generator can reduce noise by about 80%. Choose a generator with a moderate price Due to different brands, there are significant differences in power, and consequently, the price differences of househ...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
