All rights reserved © ALTRONIC, LLC 2020 3 AIA-C 11-20 EZRail® Modular Ignition Rail System Features & Benefits Modular Ignition Rail System for Natural Gas Engines EZRail® is a comprehensive line of modular ignition wiring and coil- mounting systems. Factory-built in Altronic’s Ohio facility, EZRail® systems are thoroughly tested to ensure maximum reliability and performance. Operational and functional benefits include: Complete wiring/mounting system from the ignition unit to the ignition coils. Eliminates hours of wire and conduit cutting in the field. Guarantees against skinned insulation due to long conduit pulls. Universal design takes advantage of standard cables, wiring rails and integral/flange or off-mounted coils (shielded or unshielded). EZRail® systems can be cost-effectively confi- gured for service in any hazardous or non-hazardous area. Optional bolt-on coil mounting rails give users a robust and reliable means of mounting ignition coils without compromi- sing the integrity of the wiring rail or the ability of the rail to be serviced if necessary. Flexible and upgradable. If coil types are changed, e.g., from unshielded to shielded or integral, the same wiring rail can be used without modification. The same is true if the coil moun- ting rail is added later. Competing systems require a comple- tely new, entirely different rail assembly. Premium construction materials. No “pop rivets” or foam here — only high-quality aluminum extrusions, sealed junction bo- xes, and military-style connectors and harnesses are used. To insure long-term service, all connector back shells are potted and strain-relieved. Fully serviceable. An ignition wiring rail is too critical to be a “disposable” item. Incorporating standard Altronic ignition components into the design, including the primary and secon- dary cables and leads, allows for quick, cost-effective repair and service in the field. In the unlikely event that the rail itself requires service (or if on-engine mechanical work is required), the EZRail® system can be easily disconnected, removed, and re-installed. Service makes the difference. EZRail® is backed by the most capable and experienced gas engine accessory product distribution system in the world. At the end of the day, good product performance relies upon solid field service. Altronic Distributors and Dealers are unparalleled in their ability to deliver timely, high-quality technical services for all products, Shown with optional coil mounting rail including the EZRail system.

  • Internal Combustion Engines
    Lecture-16 Prepared under QIP-CD Cell Project Internal Combustion Engines Ujjwal K Saha, Ph.D. Department of Mechanical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati 1 Introduction The combustion in a spark ignition engine is initiated by an electrical discharge across the electrodes of a spark plug, which usually occurs from 100 to 300 before TDC depending upon the chamber geometry and operating conditions. The ignition system provides a spark of sufficient intensity to ignite the air-fuel mixture at the predetermined position in the engine cycle under all speeds and load conditions. 2 Introduction – contd. In a four-stroke, four cylinder engine operating at 3000 rpm, individual cylinders require a spark at every second revolution, and this necessitates the frequency of firing to be (3000/2) x 4 = 6000 sparks per minute or 100 sparks per second. This shows that there is an extremely short interval of time between firing impulses. 3 Introduction – contd. The internal combustion engines are not capable of starting by themselves. Engines fitted in trucks, tractors and other industrial applications are usually cranked by a small starting engine or by compressed air. Automotive engines are usually cranked by a small electric motor, which is better known as a starter motor, or simply a starter. The starter motor for SI and CI engines operates on the same principle as a direct current electric motor. 4 Ignition System -Requirements It should provide a good spark between the electrodes of the plugs at the correct timing The duration

Version (c)Sep.2005 Parts List: Ignition box Pickup with 2 screws Rotor with 6 washers Cable binder Ignition coil Ignition cable The Power Block ignition system is far superior to conventional ignitions that usually achieve double the ignition tension, double the ignition energy, as well as double the spark duration. The adjustment of the ignition timing is worked out by a digital High Speed Microprocessor, with 16bit resoloution (65536 points) for each single revolution. The Signal conditioning as well as the ignition amps control are also carried out digitally, to achieve maximum efficiency with a minimum loss. The necessary D-Well time of the ignition coils is worked out digitally to achieve maximum energy saving. The output requirements of the ignition system (module + ignition coil) is approximately 17W with 1000 RPM and approximately 67W with 5000 RPM. The full performance of our Power Block ignitions is only possible with SILENT HEKTIK ignition coils, because the ignition curves for the relevant ignition energy as well as tensions are tuned and the D-Well timing on the technical details of the coils are cut. With unsuitable or inadequate ignition coils, not only does the gaurantee expire , there will also be bad trottle responce; bad coldstart or perhaps missfire: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND NOTICES Caution High Tension! Danger ! Mortal danger ! To avoid injury or destruction of the electronic, attention should be paid to the following when working on vehichles with full electronic digital high energy ignition systems: - Read the assembly instructions carefully and completely and follow the instructions.

  • Phys E-1B the Physics of the Automotive Ignition System Spring 2008
    Phys E-1b The Physics of the Automotive Ignition System Spring 2008 I. INTRODUCTION This laboratory exercise (1) explores the physics of automotive ignition systems used on vehicles for about half a century until the 1980’s and, (2) introduces more modern transistorized systems. The main job of the ignition system is to supply electricity to the spark plugs so that they can ignite the fuel-air mixture in the cylinder. In our experiment we will apply concepts such as Faraday induction, RL circuits (current build-up and decay), back emf, step-up (low- voltage to high-voltage) transformers, RLC circuits (resonance), and transistors (for switching currents). Keep in mind that whenever we speak of voltage, we are talking about a potential difference — the difference in potential between two points of interest in the circuit, one of which is usually what we call ground. In the process of understanding the underlying physics principles, you should also get an appreciation for what’s going on under the hood of your car and answer the question, “How do you get a 30,000-volt spark from a battery that supplies only 12 volts?” The diagram in Figure 1 depicts the elements of a very basic ignition circuit that provides the high voltage necessary to produce a spark in the spark plug. It consists of 1) a battery, 2) a series resistor, 3) the ignition coil, 4) points (switch contacts), and a capacitor (called a condenser in old automotive repair manuals). Notice the symbol for ground in the circuit diagrams — most voltage measurements are with respect to ground.

It also covers generators and cut-outs for use in conjunction with such internal combustion engines. The heading includes : (A) Sparking plugs. These consist of a central insulated electrode and a point (or points) attached to the casing. The casing is partly threaded at its base for screwing it into the cylinder-head, and there is a terminal at the top of the central electrode for connection to the source of current. When a high voltage is applied to the central electrode a spark jumps between that electrode and the point or points and is used for igniting the explosive mixture in the cylinder. (B) Ignition magnetos (including magneto-dynamos). These are used to provide the necessary high tension voltage to be applied to the sparking plugs of an internal combustion engine; they are used mainly for racing cars, tractors, aircraft, motor-boat or motor-cycle engines.
