Electrostatic Discharge Awareness

All electronic equipment is static-sensitive, some components more than others.

To protect these components from static damage, you must take special precautions to minimize or eliminate electrostatic discharges.

Follow these precautions when working with or near the control.

1. Before doing maintenance on the electronic control, discharge the static electricity on your body to ground by touching and holding a grounded metal object (pipes, cabinets, equipment, etc.).

2. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing made of synthetic materials. Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much as possible because these do not store static electric charges as much as synthetics.

3. Keep plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam materials (such as plastic or Styrofoam cups, cup holders, cigarette packages, cellophane wrappers, vinyl books or folders, plastic bottles, and plastic ash trays) away from the control, the modules, and the work area as much as possible.

CAUTION—ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE

To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper handling, read and observe the precautions in

Woodward manual 82715, Guide for Handling and Protection of

Electronic Controls, Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.

LPG System Overview

MI-07 General Description

Woodward’s emission-certified MI-07 control system provides a complete, fully integrated engine management system that meets or exceeds 2007 emission standards for Large Spark Ignited (LSI) engines established by the California Air

Resources Board (CARB) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The control system is applicable to naturally aspirated engines ranging in size from

1.5L to 8.1L (25 HP to 170 HP) with up to 8 cylinders running on LPG and/or gasoline in mobile industrial applications.

It provides accurate, reliable, and durable control of fuel, spark, and air over the service life of the engine in the extreme operating environment found in heavy-duty, under hood, on-engine electronic controls .

MI-07 is a closed loop system utilizing a catalytic muffler to reduce the emission level in the exhaust gas. In order to obtain maximum effect from the catalyst, an accurate control of the air fuel ratio is required. A small engine control module (SECM) uses two heated exhaust gas oxygen sensors (HEGO) in the exhaust system to monitor exhaust gas content. One HEGO is installed in front of the catalytic muffler and one is installed after the catalytic muffler.

Figure 1. MI-07 Bi-Fuel System for 3.0L Engines

The SECM makes any necessary corrections to the air fuel ratio by controlling the inlet fuel pressure to the air/fuel mixer by modulating the dual fuel trim valves (FTV) connected to the regulator. Reducing the fuel pressure leans the air/fuel mixture and increasing the fuel pressure enriches the air/fuel mixture. To calculate any necessary corrections to the air fuel ratio, the SECM uses a number of different sensors to gain information about the engine’s performance. Engine speed is monitored by the SECM through a variable reluctance (VR) or Hall Effect sensor. Intake manifold air

temperature and absolute pressure are monitored with a TMAP sensor. The MI-07 system implements a drive-by-wire (DBW) system connecting the accelerator pedal to the electronic throttle through the electrical harness; mechanical cables are not used.

A throttle position sensor (TPS) monitors throttle position in relation to the accelerator pedal position sensor (APP) command. Engine coolant temperature and adequate oil pressure are also monitored by the SECM. The SECM controller has full adaptive learning capabilities, allowing it to adapt control function as operating conditions change. Factors such as ambient temperature, fuel variations, ignition component wear, clogged air filter, and other operating variables are compensated.

Other system features include:

Tamper-Resistance

Special tools, equipment, knowledge, and authorization are required to effect any changes to the MI-07 system, thereby preventing unauthorized personnel from making adjustments that will affect performance or emissions.

Diagnostics

MI-07 is capable of monitoring and diagnosing problems and faults within the system.

These include all sensor input hardware, control output hardware, and control functions such as closed-loop fuel control limits and adaptive learn limits. Upon

Woodward 5

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

detecting a fault condition, the system notifies the operator by illuminating the MIL and activating the appropriate fault action. The action required by each fault shall be programmable by the OEM customer at the time the engine is calibrated.

Diagnostic information can be communicated through both the service tool interface and the MIL. With the MIL, it is possible to generate a string of flashing codes that correspond to the fault type. These diagnostics are generated only when the engine is not running and the operator initiates a diagnostic request sequence such as repeated actuations of the pedal within a short period of time following reset.

Limp Home Mode

The system is capable of "limp-home" mode in the event of particular faults or failures in the system. In limp-home mode the engine speed is approximately 1000 RPM at no load. A variety of fault conditions can initiate limp-home mode. These fault conditions and resulting actions are determined during calibration and are OEM customer specific.

Service Tool

A scan tool/monitoring device is available to monitor system operation and assist in diagnosis of system faults This device monitors all sensor inputs, control outputs, and diagnostic functions in sufficient detail through a single access point to the SECM to allow a qualified service technician to maintain the system. This Mototune software

(licensed by Mototron Communication) is secure and requires a crypt-token USB device to allow access to information.

Bi-Fuel System

A bi-fuel system operates on either LPG or gasoline. The engine will run on only one fuel at a time. The fuel type can be switched while the engine is stopped or running at low speeds and low loads. The fuel selection switch is a three-position type where the center position is fuel off.

Customer-Supplied Components

MI-07 requires additional components to operate that are not included with the system. These include the wire harness, mixer-to-throttle adapter, air horn adapter, mounting brackets, non-critical fittings, and hoses. These items are application specific and are the responsibility of the packager, manufacturer of record (MOR), or original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Woodward will provide assistance as needed to ensure proper fitting to the MI-07 system components.

NOTE

It is the responsibility of the customer to consult with

Woodward regarding the selection or specification of any components that impact emissions, performance, or durability.

Woodward 6

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

LPG Fuel System Operation

The principles outlined below describe the operation of MI-07 on an LPG fuel system.

An LPG fuel system consists of the following components:

• Fuel filter (supplied by customer)

• Electric fuel lock-off solenoid valve

• Fuel pressure regulator/vaporizer

• Two orificed fuel trim valves

• Gas/Air mixer with fixed orifice for trim system and fuel temperature sensor

• Miscellaneous customer-supplied hoses and fittings

Fuel is stored in the customer-supplied LPG tank in saturated liquid phase and enters the fuel system from the tank as a liquid and at tank pressure. Fuel passes through a high-pressure fuel filter and lock-off solenoid, and is then vaporized and regulated down to the appropriate pressure to supply the mixer. The regulator controls the fuel pressure to the gas/air mixer.

Dual Dither Valve

The key to meeting emissions requirements when operating in LPG is the dual dither valve hardware in the fuel system. Similar to the Woodward MI-04 system, the dual dither system modulates the fuel pressure regulator outlet pressure by providing an offset to the regulator secondary stage reference pressure. By adding a second dither valve, or fuel trim valve (FTV), the MI-07 system provides smoother, more accurate control of supply pressure resulting in better control of air fuel ratio and emissions.

This smoother control also minimizes wear on fuel system components such as the regulator diaphragm and lever by significantly reducing the pressure pulsations observed with a single FTV.

Regulator Pressure Offset

Regulator pressure offset is achieved through the use of a fixed orifice and a variable orifice in series. The inlet to the fixed orifice is connected to a mixer port that monitors inlet air pressure (roughly equal to ambient pressure). The outlet of the fixed orifice is connected to both the pressure regulator reference port and the inlet to the two FTVs

(the variable orifice) that act in parallel. The outlets of the FTVs are connected to a port at the mixer outlet, referred to as Air Valve Vacuum (AVV). Thus, by modulating the FTVs, the pressure regulator reference pressure can be varied between mixer inlet pressure and AVV. For a given change in the pressure regulator reference pressure, the pressure regulator outlet pressure changes by the same amount and in the same direction. The end result is that a change in FTV modulation changes the outlet pressure of the regulator/fuel inlet pressure of the mixer, and thus the AFR. A major benefit of this trim system results from the use of mixer inlet pressure and AVV as the reference pressure extremes. The pressure differential across the mixer fuel valve is related to these same two pressures, and thus so is fuel flow. Given this arrangement, the bias pressure delta scales with the fuel cone pressure delta. The result is that the trim system control authority and resolution on AFR stays relatively constant for the entire speed and load range of the engine.

SECM

The Small Engine Control Module (SECM) controls the LPG lock-off solenoid valve and the FTVs. The lock-off solenoid is energized when fueling with LPG and the engine is turning. FTV modulation frequency will be varied as a function of RPM by

Woodward 7

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

the SECM in order to avoid resonance phenomena in the fuel system. FTV control signals will be altered by the SECM in order to maintain a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

Control signals are based primarily on feedback from the exhaust gas oxygen sensor, with an offset for fuel temperature.

MI-07 LP Fuel Filter

After exiting the fuel tank, liquid propane passes through a serviceable inline fuel filter to the electric fuel lock off. Figure 3 shows a typical inline type LP fuel filter manufactured by Century. The primary function of the fuel filter is to remove particles and sediments that have found their way into the tank. The LP fuel filter will not remove heavy end solids and paraffins that build up in LPG fuel systems as a result of vaporization.

Figure 3. Inline LP Fuel Filter

MI-07 Fuel Lock-Off (Electric)

The fuel lock-off is a safety shutoff valve normally held closed by spring pressure. It incorporates an electric solenoid and prevents fuel flow to the regulator/converter when the engine is not in operation. This is the first of three safety locks in the MI-07 system.

Figure 4. Electric Fuel Lock Assembly

In the MI-07 design, power is supplied to the fuel lock-off via the main power relay with the SECM controlling the lock-off ground (earth) connection. The lock-off remains in a normally closed (NC) position until the key switch is activated. This supplies power to the lock-off and the SECM, but will not open the lock-off via the main power relay until the SECM provides the lock-off ground connection. This design gives the SECM full control of the lock-off while providing additional safety by closing the fuel lock-off in the unlikely event of a power failure, wiring failure or module failure.

When the liquid service valve in the fuel container is opened, liquid propane flows through the LP filter and through the service line to the fuel lock-off. Liquid propane enters the lock-off through the 1/4” NPT liquid inlet port and stops with the lock-off in the normally closed position. When the engine is cranking, the main power relay applies power to the lock-off and the SECM provides the lock-off ground causing current to flow through the windings of the solenoid creating a magnetic field. The strength of this magnetic field is sufficient to lift the lock-off valve off of its seat against spring pressure. When the valve is open liquid propane, at tank pressure, flows

Woodward 8

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

through the lock-off outlet to the pressure regulator/converter. A stall safety shutoff feature is built into the SECM to close the lock-off in case of a stall condition. The

SECM monitors three engine states: Crank - when the crankshaft position sensor detects any engine revolutions; Stall - when the key is in the ON position but the crankshaft position sensor detects no engine revolutions; and Run - when the engine reaches pre-idle RPM. When an operator turns on the key switch the lock-off is opened, but if the operator fails to crank the engine the SECM will close the lock-off after a number of seconds (calibration specific).

N-2007 Pressure Regulator/Vaporizer

The pressure regulator/vaporizer receives liquid LPG from the fuel storage tank, drops the pressure, changes the LPG phase from liquid to vapor, and provides vapor phase

LPG at a regulated outlet pressure to the mixer. To offset the refrigeration effect of the vaporization process, the regulator will be supplied with engine coolant flow sufficient to offset the latent heat of vaporization of the

LPG. A thermostat installed in the coolant supply line maintains regulator outlet coolant temperature at or below 140 o

F (60°C) which minimizes the deposit of fuel contaminants and heavy ends in the regulator and assures a more controlled vaporization process with reduced pressure pulsations.

A higher flow pressure regulator is required on larger engines.

Figure 5. N-2007 Regulator

The regulator is normally closed, requiring a vacuum signal (negative pressure) to allow fuel to flow. This is the second of three safety locks in the MI-07 system. If the engine stops, vacuum signal stops and fuel flow will automatically stop when both the secondary (2 nd

stage) valve and the primary (1 st

stage) valve closes. Unlike most other regulator/converters, the N-2007 primary valve closes with fuel pressure rather than against pressure, extending primary seat life and adding additional safety.

Liquid propane must be converted into a gaseous form in order to be used as a fuel for the engine. When the regulator receives the desired vacuum signal it allows propane to flow to the mixer. As the propane flows through the regulator the pressure is reduced in two stages from tank pressure to slightly less than atmospheric pressure. As the pressure of the propane is reduced, the liquid propane vaporizes and refrigeration occurs inside the regulator due to the vaporization of liquid propane. To replace heat lost to vaporization, engine coolant is supplied by the engine driven water pump and pumped through the regulator. Heat provided by this coolant is transferred through to the fuel vaporization chamber.

N-2007 Operation

(Refer to Figure 6.)

Liquid propane, at tank pressure, enters the N-2007 through the fuel inlet port (1).

Propane liquid then flows through the primary valve (2). The primary valve located at the inlet of the expansion chamber (3), is controlled by the primary diaphragm (4), which reacts to vapor pressure inside the expansion chamber. Two springs are used to apply force on the primary diaphragm in the primary diaphragm chamber (5), keeping the primary valve open when no fuel pressure is present.

Woodward 9

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

A small port connects the expansion chamber to the primary diaphragm chamber. At the outlet of the expansion chamber is the secondary valve (6). The secondary valve is held closed by the secondary spring on the secondary valve lever (7). The secondary diaphragm controls the secondary lever. When the pressure in the expansion chamber reaches 1.5 psig (10.342 kPa) it causes a pressure/force imbalance across the primary diaphragm (8). This force is greater than the primary diaphragm spring pressure and will cause the diaphragm to close the primary valve.

Since the fuel pressure has been reduced from tank pressure to 1.5 psig (10.342 kPa) the liquid propane vaporizes. As the propane vaporizes it takes on heat from the expansion chamber. This heat is replaced by engine coolant, which is pumped through the coolant passage of the regulator. At this point vapor propane will not flow past the expansion chamber of the regulator until the secondary valve is opened. To open the secondary valve, a negative pressure signal must be received from the air/fuel mixer. When the engine is cranking or running a negative pressure signal

(vacuum) travels through the vapor fuel outlet connection of the regulator, which is the regulator secondary chamber, and the vapor fuel inlet of the mixer. The negative pressure in the secondary chamber causes a pressure/force imbalance on the secondary diaphragm, which overcomes the secondary spring force, opening the secondary valve and allowing vapor propane to flow out of the expansion chamber, through the secondary chamber to the mixer.

Figure 6. Parts View of N-2007 Regulator

Because vapor propane has now left the expansion chamber, the pressure in the chamber will drop, causing the primary diaphragm spring force to re-open the primary valve allowing liquid propane to enter the regulator, and the entire process starts again. This creates a balanced condition between the primary and secondary chambers allowing for a constant flow of fuel to the mixer as long as the demand from the engine is present. The fuel flow is maintained at a constant output pressure, due to the calibrated secondary spring. The amount of fuel flowing will vary depending on how far the secondary valve opens in response to the negative pressure signal generated by the air/fuel mixer. The strength of that negative pressure signal developed by the mixer is directly related to the amount of air flowing through the mixer into the engine. With this process, the larger the quantity of air flowing into the engine, the larger the amount of fuel flowing to the mixer.

Woodward 10

Manual 36553

CA100 Mixer

MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

The mixer is installed above the throttle body and meters gaseous fuel into the airstream at a rate that is proportional to the volumetric flow rate of air. The ratio between volumetric airflow and volumetric fuel flow is controlled by the shaping of the mixer fuel cone and biased by the controllable fuel supply pressure delivered by the pressure regulator. Fuel flow must be metered accurately over the full range of airflows. Pressure drop across the mixer air valve must be minimized to assure maximum power output from the engine.

The mixer fuel inlet is fitted with a thermistor-type temperature sensor. This permits the SECM to correct fuel pressure to compensate for variations in fuel temperature. Left uncorrected, fuel temperature variations can cause significant variations in air fuel ratio.

A higher flow mixer is required on larger engines. A lower flow mixer is required on smaller engines.

Figure 7. CA100 Mixer

CA100 Mixer Operation

Vapor propane fuel is supplied to the CA100 mixer by the N-2007 pressure regulator/converter. The mixer uses a diaphragm type air valve assembly to operate a gas-metering valve inside the mixer. The gas-metering valve is normally closed, requiring a negative pressure (vacuum) signal from a cranking or running engine to open. This is the third of the three safety locks in the MI-07 system. If the engine stops or is turned off, the air valve assembly closes the gas-metering valve, stopping fuel flow past the mixer. The gas-metering valve controls the amount of fuel to be mixed with the incoming air at the proper ratio. The air/fuel mixture then travels past the throttle, through the intake manifold and into the engine cylinders where it is compressed, ignited and burned.

Figure 8. CA100 Mixer Attached to Throttle Body

Woodward 11

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

(Refer to Figure 9.)

The air/fuel mixer is mounted in the intake air stream between the air cleaner and the throttle. The design of the main body incorporates a cylindrical bore or mixer bore, fuel inlet (1) and a gas discharge jet (2). In the center of the main body is the air valve assembly, which is made up of the air valve (3), the gas-metering valve (4), the air valve diaphragm (5), and air valve spring (6). The gas-metering valve is permanently mounted to the air valve diaphragm assembly with a face seal mounted between the two parts.

When the engine is not running this face seal creates a barrier against the gas discharge jet, preventing fuel flow with the aid (downward force) of the air valve spring. When the engine is cranking it begins to draw in air, creating a negative pressure signal. This negative pressure signal is transmitted through four vacuum ports in the air valve.

Figure 9. Parts View of CA100 Mixer

Woodward 12

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

A pressure/force imbalance begins to build across the air valve diaphragm between the air valve vacuum (AVV) chamber (above the diaphragm) and atmospheric pressure below the diaphragm. Approximately 6 inches H

2

O (14.945 mbar) of negative pressure is required to overcome the air valve spring force and push the air valve assembly upward off the valve seat. Approximately 24 inches H

2

O (59.781 mbar) pulls the valve assembly to the top of its travel in the full open position.

The amount of negative pressure generated is a direct result of throttle position and the amount of air flowing through the mixer to the engine. At low engine speeds, low

AVV causes the air valve diaphragm assembly to move upward a small amount, creating a small venturi. At high engine speeds, high AVV causes the air valve diaphragm assembly to move much farther creating a large venturi. The variable venturi air/fuel mixer constantly matches venturi size to engine demand.

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

A main mixture adjustment valve on the fuel inlet of the CA100 is not available in the

MI-07 system, however an idle mixture adjustment is incorporated into the mixer

(Figure 12). The idle mixture adjustment is an air bypass port, adjusting the screw all the way in, blocks off the port and enriches the idle mixture. Backing out the idle adjustment screw opens the port and leans the idle mixture. The idle mixture screw is a screw with locking threads that is factory set with a tamper resistant cap installed after adjustment. Accurate adjustment of the idle mixture can be accomplished by adjusting for a specific fuel trim valve (FTV) duty cycle with the Service Tool software or with a voltmeter. NOTE: Adjustments should only be performed by trained

service technicians.

Figure 12. Idle Mixture Adjustment Screw

Fuel Trim Valve (FTV)

The Fuel Trim Valve (FTV) is a two-way electric solenoid valve and is controlled by a pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal provided by the SECM. Two FTVs are used to bias the output fuel pressure on the LPG regulator/converter (N-2007), by metering air valve vacuum (AVV) into the atmospheric side of the

N-2007 secondary regulator diaphragm. An orifice balance line connected to the air inlet side of the mixer provides atmospheric reference to the N-2007 when the FTVs are closed. The SECM uses feedback voltage from the O

2

sensor to determine the amount of bias needed to the regulator/converter.

In normal operation the N-2007 maintains fuel flow at a constant output pressure, due to the calibrated secondary spring. The amount of fuel flowing from the N-2007 will vary depending on how far the secondary diaphragm opens the secondary valve in response to the negative pressure signal generated by the air/fuel mixer. One side of the N-2007 secondary diaphragm is referenced to FTV control pressure while the other side of the diaphragm reacts to the negative pressure signal from the mixer. If the pressure on the reference side of the N-2007 secondary diaphragm is reduced, the diaphragm will close the secondary valve until a balance condition exists across the diaphragm, reducing fuel flow and leaning the air/fuel mixture.

Woodward 14

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Branch-Tee Fitting

A branch-tee fitting is installed in the atmospheric vent port of the N-2007 with one side of the branch-tee connected to the intake side of the mixer forming the balance line and referencing atmospheric pressure. The other side of the branch-tee fitting connects to the FTV inlet (small housing side). The FTV outlet (large housing connector side) connects to the AVV port. When the FTVs are open AVV is sent to the atmospheric side of the N-2007 secondary diaphragm, which lowers the reference pressure, closing the N-2007 secondary valve and leaning the air/fuel mixture. The

MI-07 system is calibrated to run rich without the FTVs. By modulating (pulsing) the

FTVs the SECM can control the amount of AVV applied to the N-2007 secondary diaphragm. Increasing the amount of time the FTVs remain open (modulation or duty cycle) causes the air/fuel mixture to become leaner; decreasing the modulation (duty cycle) enriches the mixture.

Electronic Throttle System

The electronic throttle system controls engine output (speed and torque) through electronic control of mass airflow to the engine. Any DC motor-actuated or Limited

Angle Torque motor (LAT)-actuated throttle with less than 5A peak and 2A steady state can be controlled. The TPS must be directly coupled to the throttle shaft for direct shaft position measurement.

A commonly used throttle is the Bosch DV-E5. This throttle is available in a variety of bore sizes to meet specific engine needs: 32mm, 40mm, and 54mm are readily available throttle bore sizes; other sizes are possible. The Bosch throttle is a fully validated automotive component incorporating a brushed DC motor with gear reduction, dual throttle position sensors, throttle plate, and cast aluminum housing. In the event of an electrical disconnection or other related failure, the throttle plate returns to a limp-home idle position at a no-load engine speed above curb idle speed.

This provides sufficient airflow for the engine to move the vehicle on level ground. Any throttle bodies used for MI-07 meet or exceed the specification for the Bosch throttle bodies.

In terms of response, the throttle is capable of fully opening and closing in less than

50 msec. Position resolution and steady state control should be 0.25% of full travel or better.

MI-07 Electronic Throttle

Conventional throttle systems rely on a mechanical linkage to control the throttle valve. To meet fluctuating engine demands a conventional system will typically include a throttle valve actuator designed to readjust the throttle opening in response to engine demand, together with an idle control actuator or idle air bypass valve.

In contrast, the MI-07 system uses electronic throttle control (ETC). The SECM controls the throttle valve based on engine RPM, engine load, and information received from the foot pedal. Two potentiometers on the foot pedal assembly monitor accelerator pedal travel. The electronic throttle used in the MI-07 system is a Bosch

32mm or 40mm electronic throttle body DV-E5 (Figure 14). The DV-E5 is a single unit assembly, which includes the throttle valve, throttle-valve actuator (DC motor) and two throttle position sensors (TPS). The SECM calculates the correct throttle valve opening that corresponds to the driver’s demand, makes any adjustments needed for adaptation to the engine’s current operating conditions and then generates a corresponding electrical (driver) signal to the throttle-valve actuator.

Figure 14. Bosch Electronic Throttle Body

Woodward 16

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

The MI-07 uses a dual TPS design (TPS

1

and TPS

2

). The SECM continuously checks and monitors all sensors and calculations that effect throttle valve position whenever the engine is running. If any malfunctions are encountered, the SECM’s initial response is to revert to redundant sensors and calculated data. If no redundant signal is available or calculated data cannot solve the malfunction, the SECM will drive the system into one of its limp-home modes or shut the engine down, storing the appropriate fault information in the SECM.

There are multiple limp-home modes available with electronic throttle control:

1. If the throttle itself is suspected of being inoperable, the SECM will remove the power to the throttle motor. When the power is removed, the throttle blade returns to its “default” position, approximately 7% open.

2. If the SECM can still control the throttle but some other part of the system is suspected of failure, the SECM will enter a “Reduced Power” mode. In this mode, the power output of the engine is limited by reducing the maximum throttle position allowed.

3. In some cases, the SECM will shut the engine down. This is accomplished by stopping ignition, turning off the fuel, and disabling the throttle.

Ignition System

Spark-ignited engines require accurate control of spark timing and spark energy for efficient combustion. The MI-07 ignition system provides this control. The system consists of the following components:

• SECM

• Ignition coil(s) *

• Crankshaft position sensor *

• Crankshaft timing wheel *

• Cam position sensor *

(for sequential ignition or fuel injection only)

• Cam timing wheel *

(for sequential ignition or fuel injection only)

• Spark plugs *

(*) Customer-supplied components

The SECM, through use of embedded control algorithms and calibration variables, determines the proper time to start energizing the coil and fire the spark plug. This requires accurate crank/camshaft position information, an engine speed calculation, coil energy information, and target spark timing. The SECM provides a TTL compatible signal for spark control. The coil must contain the driver circuitry necessary to energize the primary spark coil otherwise an intermediary coil driver device must be provided. The SECM controls spark energy (dwell time) and spark discharge timing.

General Motors (GM) High Voltage Switch (HVS) System

The GM 3.0L engine has a distributed ignition system comprised of one coil and a distributor driven from the engine camshaft. The camshaft rotates at half the speed of the engine thereby guaranteeing that each spark plug will fire once for every two revolutions of the engine.

The GM HVS system provides a control interface that allows external control modules to control engine timing and dwell. When the SECM sends a 5-volt signal to the control interface, the coil control module begins charging the coil. When the SECM signal returns to the ground state, the coil discharges into the distributor, which directs the charge to the appropriate spark plug. In this way, the amount of time the SECM signal is in the high state determines the coil dwell. The moment that the signal returns to the ground state determines when the spark plug fires.

The spark timing cannot be altered by rotating the distributor. The SECM uses the crankshaft position sensor to determine the ignition timing, so changing the position of the distributor will have no effect on the timing.

IGNITION SYSTEM COMPONENTS

In a typical distributed ignition system, a crankshaft position sensor generates a basic timing signal by reading notches on the crankshaft, flywheel, or harmonic balancer.

The crank sensor signal goes to the small engine control module (SECM), where it is used to turn the ignition coil on and off via the GM HVS control interface.

The operation of the ignition system is essentially the same as any other ignition system. The coil has a low primary resistance (0.4 to 0.6 ohms) and steps up the

Woodward 18

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

primary system voltage from 12 volts to as much as 40,000 volts to produce a spark for the spark plug. The distributor assures that the voltage is directed to the spark plug of the proper cylinder. Resistor spark plugs are generally used to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI).

MISFIRES

Common ignition system ailments include misfiring, hard starting, or a no start. Spark plugs can still be fouled by oil or fuel deposits, as well as pre-ignition and detonation.

If the crankshaft position sensor fails, the loss of the basic timing signal will prevent the system from generating a spark and the engine will not start or run. A failed driver circuit within the SECM will also prevent proper ignition system operation.

It is important to remember that ignition misfire can also be caused by other factors such as worn or fouled spark plugs, loose or damaged coil connector or terminals, dirty fuel injectors, low fuel pressure, intake vacuum leaks, loss of compression in a cylinder, or even contaminated fuel. These other possibilities should all be ruled out before the distributor control module is replaced.

A SECM controlled engine that cranks but fails to start, in many cases, will often have a problem in the crankshaft or camshaft position sensor circuits. Loss of sensor signals may prevent the SECM from properly synchronizing, thereby preventing the engine from starting and running.

IGNITION SYSTEM CHECKS

The ignition coil can be tested with an ohmmeter. Measure primary and secondary resistance and compare to specifications. If resistance is out of specifications, the coil is bad and needs to be replaced.

Also, pay close attention to the tube that wraps around the spark plug. Cracks can allow voltage to jump to ground causing a misfire. The spark plug terminal should also fit tightly.

If a coil tests bad and is replaced, cleaning the connector and wiring harness terminals of the coil and distributor can often avoid future problems. Corrosion at either place can cause intermittent operation and loss of continuity, which may contribute to component failure. Applying dielectric grease to these connections can help prevent corrosion and assure a good electrical connection.

Magnetic crankshaft position sensors can be tested with an ohmmeter, and the sensor output voltage and waveform can be read with an oscilloscope. The variable reluctance crankshaft position sensor can be checked with an ohmmeter. The resistance of the sensor should be greater than 100

Ω and less than 100kΩ. On most vehicles, a defective crank position sensor will usually set a fault code that can be read with the Service Tool.

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Exhaust System

Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen Sensors (HEGO)

The MI-07 system utilizes two HEGO (O

2

) sensors. One sensor is a pre-catalyst sensor that detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust stream and is considered the primary control point. Based upon the O

2 sensor feedback, the MI-07 system supplies a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio to the catalytic converter. The catalytic converter then reduces emissions to the required levels. The second sensor is a post-catalyst sensor that detects the amount of oxygen after the catalyst. This sensor is used as a secondary control point to adjust the pre-catalyst setpoint to ensure proper catalyst conversion efficiency.

Once a HEGO sensor reaches approximately

600°F (316°C), it becomes electrically active. The concentration of oxygen in the exhaust stream determines the voltage produced. If the engine is running rich, little oxygen will be present in the exhaust and voltage output will be relatively high.

Conversely, in a lean situation, more oxygen will be present and a smaller electrical potential will be noticed.

Figure 16. HEGO (O

2

) Sensor

In order for the sensor to become active and create an electrical signal below 600°F

(316°C) a heated element is added to the sensor housing. Two wires provide the necessary 12 Vdc and ground signal for the heater element. A fourth wire provides an independent ground for the sensor. The pre-catalyst sensor heater is powered by the main power relay and is always powered. The post-catalyst sensor heater is powered from an additional relay that is controlled by the SECM. This relay is only energized when the SECM calculates that water condensation in the exhaust system and catalytic muffler prior to the sensor should be evaporated. This is to avoid thermal shock of the sensor that could prematurely fail the sensor.

The HEGO stoichiometric air-fuel ratio voltage target is approximately 500 mV and changes slightly as a function of speed and load. When the pre-catalyst HEGO sensor sends a voltage signal less than 450 mV the SECM interprets the air-fuel mixture as lean. The SECM then decreases the PWM duty cycle sent to the fuel trim valves in order to increase the fuel pressure to the mixer inlet; thus richening air-fuel mixture.

The opposite is true if the SECM receives a voltage signal above 450 mV from the

HEGO. The air-fuel mixture would then be interpreted as being too rich and the SECM would increase the duty cycle of the trim valves.

CAUTION

The HEGO sensors are calibrated to work with the MI-07 control system. Use of alternate sensors may impact performance and the ability of the system to diagnose rich and lean conditions.

Catalytic Muffler

In order to meet 2007 emission requirements a 3-way catalyst is necessary.

The MI-07 control system monitors the exhaust stream pre and post catalyst and uses this information to control the air-fuel mixture. By using the signals from the HEGOs, the SECM can increase or decrease the amount of oxygen in the exhaust by modulating the FTVs and adjusting the air-fuel ratio. This control scheme allows the

Woodward 20

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

SECM to make sure that the engine is running at the correct air to fuel ratio so that the catalyst can perform as required to meet the emissions certification.

Woodward 21

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

SECM

The Woodward Small Engine Control Module (SECM) controller has full authority over spark, fuel and air. Utilizing a Freescale micro controller, the SECM has 48 pins of I/O and is fully waterproof and shock hardened. To optimize engine performance and drivability, the SECM uses several sensors for closed loop feedback information. These sensors are used by the

SECM for closed loop control in three main categories:

• Fuel Management

• Load/Speed Management

• Ignition Management

The SECM monitors system parameters and stores any out of range conditions or malfunctions as faults in SECM memory. Engine run hours are also stored in memory.

Stored fault codes can be displayed on the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) as flash codes or read by the MI-07 Service Tool software through a Controller Area Network

(CAN) communication link.

Constant battery power (12 Vdc) is supplied through the fuse block to the SECM and the main power relays. Upon detecting a key-switch ON input, the SECM will fully power up and energize the main power relays. The energized main power relays supply 12 Vdc power to the heated element of the oxygen sensors, fuel lock-off, fuel trim valves (FTVs), gasoline injectors, gasoline fuel pump, crank sensor, cam sensor, and the ignition coils. The SECM supplies voltage to the electronic throttle actuator, oil pressure switch, fuel temperature sensor, and the coolant temperature sensor.

Transducer or sensor power (+ 5 Vdc) is regulated by the SECM and supplied to the manifold temperature/air pressure (TMAP) sensor, throttle position sensor (TPS), and the accelerator pedal position sensors (APP

1

& APP

2

). The SECM provides a transducer ground for all the sensors, and a low side driver signal controlling the fuel lock-off, MIL, gasoline injectors, gasoline fuel pump, and FTVs.

Fuel Management

During engine cranking at startup, the SECM provides a low side driver signal to the fuel lock-off, which opens the lock-off allowing liquid propane to flow to the

N-2007 regulator. A stall safety shutoff feature is built into the SECM to close the lockoff in case of a stall condition. The SECM monitors three engine states:

Crank, when the crankshaft position sensor detects any engine revolutions

Stall, when the key is in the ON position but the crankshaft position sensor detects no engine revolutions

Run state, when the engine reaches a calibration specific RPM.

When an operator turns on the key switch the lock-off is opened but if the operator fails to crank the engine, the SECM will close the lock-off after a calibration specific number of seconds.

To maintain proper exhaust emission levels, the SECM uses a heated exhaust gas oxygen sensor (HEGO) mounted before the catalyst, to measure exhaust gas content in the LP gas system. Engine speed is monitored by the SECM through a variable reluctance (VR) sensor or Hall-Effect type sensor. Intake manifold air temperature and absolute pressure are monitored with a (TMAP) sensor. The HEGO voltage is converted to an air/fuel ratio value. This value is then compared to a target value in the SECM. The target value is based on optimizing catalyst efficiency for a given load and speed. The SECM then calculates any corrections that need to be made to the air/fuel ratio.

Woodward 22

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

The system operates in open loop fuel control mode until the engine has done a certain amount of work. This ensures that the engine and HEGO are sufficiently warmed up to stay in control. In open loop control mode, the FTV duty cycle is based on engine speed and load. Once the HEGO reaches operating temperature the fuel management is in closed loop control mode for all steady state conditions, from idle through full throttle. In closed loop mode, the FTV duty cycle is based on feedback from the HEGO sensor. The system may return to open-loop operation when engine load or engine speed vary beyond a chosen threshold.

The SECM makes any necessary corrections to the air-fuel ratio by controlling the inlet fuel pressure to the air-fuel mixer Reducing the fuel pressure leans the air/fuel mixture and increasing the fuel pressure enriches the air-fuel mixture. Control is achieved by modulating the fuel trim valves.

Throttle Management

Drive-by-wire (DBW) refers to the fact that the MI-07 control system has no mechanical linkage from the operator to the throttle body. Instead, the SECM controls the throttle based on input commands such as foot pedals, speed select switches, or even CAN messages. The SECM monitors the input command request and controls the throttle plate by driving a DC motor connected to the throttle. The DC motor rotates the throttle plate to correspond to the requested load by the operator. The

SECM will override the torque request based on governor configuration and engine safety protocols.

The use of electronic throttle control (ETC) ensures that the engine receives only the correct amount of throttle opening for any given situation, greatly improving idle quality and drivability.

Two throttle position sensors (TPS

1

and TPS

2

), which are integral to the DBW throttle assembly, provide feedback for position control by monitoring the exact position of the throttle valve. See Figure 18.

SECM self-calibration and “cross checking” compares both signals and then checks for errors.

Figure 18. Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) on DV-E5 Throttle

Woodward 23

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

NOTE

The DV-E5 throttle is not a serviceable assembly. If a

TPS sensor fails, the assembly should be replaced.

Engine Speed Governing Modes

For idle speed control, the idle speed is driven by the SECM. Unlike a mechanical system, the idle speed is not adjustable by the end user. The idle speed is adjusted by the SECM based on engine coolant temperature. At these low engine speeds, the

SECM uses spark and throttle to maintain a constant speed regardless of load.

The system governs engine speed through two modes:

1. Accelerator Pedal Position (APP)

2. All Speed Governor

ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION (APP)

In APP mode, the MI-07 system has minimum and maximum speed governing through the SECM and DBW throttle. This mode provides automatic minimum speed

governing at a specified idle speed and maximum speed governing at a specified rated speed. In between these speeds is a manufacturer defined pedal follower function. The pedal vs.TPS request table is manufacturer configurable to provide smooth, seamless drivability.

The MI-07 system eliminates the need for air velocity governors. This substantially increases the peak torque and power available for a given system as shown in

Figure 19. When the engine speed reaches the max governing point the speed is controlled by closing the DBW throttle. Using the DBW throttle as the primary engine speed control allows for a smooth transition into and out of the governor. If excessive over speed is detected, the engine is shut down.

ALL SPEED GOVERNOR

This function allows the operator to control the engine through an isochronous governor strategy within the torque limits of the engine. The speed set point can be configured by the manufacturer for the engine operating range.

The set point for the governor can be foot pedal, speed select switches, or CAN message (J1939 PGN [0000] [TSC1] SPN898). These modes can be individually selectable.

Drive-By-Wire Signal Flow Process

Figure 20. Drive-By-Wire Signal Flow Process

Figure 20 describes the signal flow process of the MI-07 DBW section. The foot pedal assembly uses two potentiometers to detect pedal position. These two signals, accelerator pedal position 1 (APP

1

) and accelerator pedal position 2 (APP

2

) are sent directly to the SECM. The SECM uses a series of algorithms to self calibrate and cross check the input signals. A demand position for the throttle will then be derived and sent to the throttle as a throttle position sensor demand (TPSd). This signal will be processed through a PID (Proportional, Integral, Derivative) controller in the SECM to achieve the appropriate motor-current response then passed to the throttle. The throttle moves to the commanded position and provides a feedback signal from the throttle position sensors (TPS

1

and TPS

2

) to the SECM.

Ignition Management

In the normal course of events, with the engine operating at the correct temperature in defined conditions, the SECM will use load and engine speed to derive the correct ignition timing. In addition to load and speed there are other circumstances under which the SECM may need to vary the ignition timing, including low engine coolant temperature, air temperature, start-up, and idle speed control.

SECM Electrical Mounting Recommendations

In order to prevent the possibility of any SECM malfunctions due to EMI/RFI emissions, engine packagers and OEMs should follow industry “best practices” and the SECM mounting and harness recommendations listed below:

• The SECM should be mounted in a location that minimizes the amount of EMI the module is exposed to by locating it as far as practical from all high tension components, such as ignition coils, distributors, spark plug wires, etc. It is recommended that the SECM be mounted at least 29.5” (749 mm) away from the distributor and ignition coil, and at least 20” (508 mm) from the nearest plug wire.

• All wiring harnesses should be routed to minimize coupling (both radiated and conducted), and be securely fastened to minimize movement and maintain proper clearance between the SECM and all ignition system components.

• The OEM must ensure that a high-quality ground connection between the

SECM and battery negative (–) is provided and can be maintained for the useful life of the vehicle. This may require the use of star-type washers on all ground lug connections between the SECM and the battery and/or special preparation of all mating surfaces that complete the ground connection in order to ensure that the connection is sound.

Engineering judgment must be exercised on all applications to determine if appropriate measures have been implemented to minimize EMI exposure to the

SECM and associated cabling. The above recommendations do not provide any guarantee of proper system performance.

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

SECM / Sensors

The 48-pin Small Engine Control Module (SECM) and sensors provide the computational power, algorithm logic, sensor inputs and control outputs to control the system. The SECM receives signals from the sensors, digitizes these signals, and then, through algorithms and calibration maps, computes the desired output response to effect control of fuel, spark and air to the engine. The

SECM also provides a variety of other functions and features. These include system monitoring and diagnostics to aid in maintaining efficient system operation and auxiliary control.

Gasoline Fuel System

A gasoline fuel system includes the following components:

Gasoline fuel pump*

Fuel filter*

Fuel rail*

Pressure regulator*

Fuel injectors*

Small engine control module (SECM) and related sensors and equipment

(*) Supplied by customer

Multi-Point Injection (MPI) is supplied with this system. However, the SECM lacks sufficient channels to drive each injector individually therefore the injectors are driven in batches of two (1 and 4, 2 and 5, 3 and 6). Fuel injection pressure and flow rate depend on engine-specific fuel injection requirements. A variety of regulators and injectors can be used to fit individual needs. The gasoline fuel pressure regulator is a one-way, non-return configuration. All gasoline specific components are automotive production parts and validated to strict automotive standards. Four (4) injection channels are supported by the SECM but only three are used in this application.

Use of unleaded gasoline of 87 octane or higher is recommended for optimal performance of the MI-07 system.

System Control Performance Specifications

Power /Torque

The MI-07 system maximizes engine power and torque while meeting customerspecific needs for emissions, fuel consumption, durability, and drivability. Bear in mind that engine power is dependent on many variables other than the fuel control system, i.e., compression ratio, friction, valve timing, etc.

Exhaust Emissions

MI-07 is capable of meeting EPA 2007 LSI engine emission standards when operating properly with an approved three-way catalyst. Emission standards must be met on both the LSI engine off-highway transient emissions test cycle and the

ISO 8178 type C2 steady-state emissions test cycle.

The fuel control logic, for both LPG and gasoline, employs a closed-loop exhaust gas oxygen control algorithm in order to compensate for fuel system tolerances, aging, altitude, and fuel composition. The algorithm utilizes dual heated exhaust gas oxygen (HEGO) sensors with an output that switches high and low at stoichiometry. When operated with LPG, the control logic compensates for variations in fuel temperature as measured at the mixer inlet.

Drivability / Transient Response

The engine will meet requirements of the EPA LSI engine transient emissions test cycle. It should start, run, accelerate, decelerate, and stop without hesitation or miss-fire.

Low Idle Speed

The low idle speed setpoint ranges between 500 RPM and 800 RPM, as defined by the OEM during calibration.

Maximum Speed / High Idle

The maximum governed speed setpoint ranges between 1800 RPM and 3000

RPM, as defined by the OEM during calibration.

Recommended Maintenance

Suggested maintenance requirements for an engine equipped with an MI-07 fuel system are contained in this section. The operator should, however, develop a customized maintenance schedule using the requirements listed in this section and any other requirements listed by the engine manufacturer.

Maintenance Tests & Inspections

Test Fuel System for Leaks

• Obtain a leak check squirt bottle or pump spray bottle.

• Fill the bottle with an approved leak check solution.

• Spray a generous amount of the solution on the fuel system fuel lines and connections, starting at the storage container.

• Wait approximately 15-60 seconds, then perform a visual inspection of the fuel system. Leaks will cause the solution to bubble.

• Listen for leaks.

• Smell for LPG odor which may indicate a leak.

• Repair any leaks before continuing.

• Crank the engine through several revolutions. This will energize the fuel lockoff and allow fuel to flow to the pressure regulator/converter. Apply additional leak check solution to the regulator/ converter fuel connections and housing.

Repeat leak inspection as listed above.

• Repair any fuel leaks before continuing.

Inspect Engine for Fluid Leaks

• Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperatures.

• Turn the engine off.

• Inspect the entire engine for oil and/or coolant leaks.

• Repair as necessary before continuing.

Inspect Vacuum Lines and Fittings

• Visually inspect vacuum lines and fittings for physical damage such as brittleness, cracks and kinks. Repair/replace as required.

• Solvent or oil damage may cause vacuum lines to become soft, resulting in a collapsed line while the engine is running.

• If abnormally soft lines are detected, replace as necessary.

Inspect Electrical System

• Check for loose, dirty or damaged connectors and wires on the harness including: fuel lock-off, TMAP sensor, O

Pressure Regulator/Converter Inspection

• Visually inspect the pressure regulator/converter (B) housing for coolant leaks.

• Refer to Chapter 5 if the pressure regulator/converter requires replacement.

Fuel Trim Valve Inspection (FTV)

• Visually inspect the fuel trim valves (C) for abrasions or cracking. Replace as necessary.

• To ensure a valve is not leaking a blow-by test can be performed.

1. With the engine off, disconnect the electrical connector to the FTVs.

2. Disconnect the vacuum line from the FTVs to the pressure regulator/converter at the converter’s tee connection.

3. Lightly blow through the vacuum line connected to the FTVs.

Air should not pass through the FTVs when de-energized.

If air leaks past the FTVs when de-energized, replace the FTVs.

Inspect Air/Fuel Valve Mixer Assembly

• Refer to Chapter 5 for procedures regarding the LP mixer (D).

Inspect for Intake Leaks

• Visually inspect the intake throttle assembly (E), and intake manifold for looseness and leaks. Repair as necessary.

Woodward 42

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Inspect Throttle Assembly

• Visually inspect the throttle assembly motor housing for coking, cracks, and missing cover-retaining clips. Repair and/or replace as necessary.

NOTE

Refer to Chapter 5 for procedures on removing the mixer and inspecting the throttle plate.

Checking the TMAP Sensor

• Verify that the TMAP sensor (F) is mounted tightly into the manifold or manifold adapter (E), with no leakage.

• If the TMAP is found to be loose, remove the TMAP retaining screw and the

TMAP sensor from the manifold adapter.

• Visually inspect the TMAP O-ring seal for damage. Replace as necessary.

• Apply a thin coat of an approved silicon lubricant to the TMAP O-ring seal.

• Re-install the TMAP sensor into the manifold or manifold adapter and securely tighten the retaining screw.

Inspect Engine for Exhaust Leaks

• Start the engine and allow it to reach operating temperatures.

• Perform visual inspection of exhaust system from the engine all the way to the tailpipe. Any leaks, even after the post-catalyst oxygen sensor, can cause the sensor output to be effected (due to exhaust pulsation entraining air upstream). Repair any/all leaks found. Ensure the length from the postcatalyst sensor to tailpipe is the same as original factory.

• Ensure that wire routing for the oxygen sensors is still keeping wires away from the exhaust system. Visually inspect the oxygen sensors to detect any damage.

Tests and Adjustments

WARNING—PROPER USE

•

LP gas is highly flammable. To prevent personal injury, keep fire and flammable materials away from the lift truck when work is done on the fuel system.

•

Gas vapor may reduce oxygen available for breathing, cause headache, nausea, dizziness and unconsciousness and lead to injury or death. Always operate the forklift in a well ventilated area

•

Liquid propane may cause freezing of tissue or frostbite. Avoid direct contact with skin or tissue; always wear appropriate safety protection including gloves and safety glasses when working with liquid propane.

CAUTION

The regulator/converter and mixer are part of a certified system complying with EPA and CARB 2007 requirements. Only trained, certified technicians should perform disassembly, service or replacement of the regulator/converter or mixer.

N-2007 Regulator Service Testing

For checking the N-2007 regulator/converter operation, the following tests can be performed (See Chapter 5 for removal/installation of the N-2007 regulator). To check the secondary regulation (output) a simple vacuum hand pump can be used to simulate the vacuum signal transmitted from the air/fuel mixer when the engine is running. See listing below for required hardware.

Break-Off Test

Secondary Stage Test Hardware

1. Hand vacuum pump

2. Regulator vapor outlet test fitting 3/4” NPT x 1/4” hose barb

3. Union Tee 1/4” NPT with three 1/4” NPT x 1/4” hose barb

5. 0-3” WC Magnehelic gauge (inches of water column)

Secondary Stage (Break-Off) Test

1. Connect the vacuum pump, the Magnehelic gauge, and the regulator vapor outlet to the Union Tee fitting (Figure 30). Make sure there is no leakage at any of the fittings.

2. Using the vacuum pump slowly apply enough vacuum to measure above

-2” WC on the gauge. This vacuum signal opens the secondary valve in the N-2007 regulator/converter.

3. Release the vacuum pump lever and you will see the gauge needle start falling back toward zero. When the pressure drops just below the specified break-off pressure (-0.5 +/- 0.35 “ WC) of the secondary spring, the needle should stop moving.

Woodward 52

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

4. At this point the secondary valve should close. If the secondary valve seat or the secondary diaphragm is leaking the gauge needle will continue to fall toward zero (proportional to the leak size). An excessively rich air/fuel mixture can be caused by a secondary valve seat leak and the regulator should be replaced.

Figure 30. Secondary Stage Test Connection

Pressure Test

Primary Stage Test Hardware

1. Shop air pressure regulator adjusted to 100 psi

2. Shop air hose fitting (1/4” NPT to air hose)

4. Test gauge fitting (1/16” NPT x 1/4” hose barb)

5. Vacuum hose or vinyl tubing

6. 0-60” WC Magnehelic gauge (inches of water column)

Primary Stage Pressure Test

1. Remove the primary test port plug from the side of the regulator and install the 1/16” NPT hose barb fitting (Figure 31).

2.

Connect a compressed air line (shop air ~100 psi) to the liquid propane fuel inlet of the N-2007 regulator (Figure 31).

Figure 31. Primary Stage Test Connection

Woodward 53

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

3. Apply compressed air, wait for air to exit the hose barb in the test port, and then connect the Magnehelic gauge (Figure 32) to the hose barb using the vacuum hose or vinyl tubing. This prevents the gauge from reading maximum pressure due to the large velocity of compressed air entering the primary chamber.

4. Make sure there is no leakage at any of the fittings. The static pressure should read between 40-60” of water column on the Magnehelic gauge and maintain a constant pressure for 60 seconds.

Figure 32. Magnehelic Gauge Connection to Hose Barb

5. If the pressure reading begins to increase, a leak is most likely present at the primary valve, either the primary valve o-ring or the valve itself. If a leak is present the regulator is defective.

6. If the pressure begins to decrease, the secondary seat is probably not making an adequate seal and is leaking. The regulator is defective.

7. If the test is successful, re-install the primary test port plug and check the fittings for leaks. See Chapter 5 for installation of the N-2007 regulator.

NOTE

The N-2007 primary stage pressure can also be tested at idle on a running engine. The N-2007 primary pressure should be between

40 inH20 (99.635 mbar) and 55 inH20 (136.999 mbar) at 750 RPM, idle.

WARNING

• LP gas is highly flammable. To prevent personal injury, keep fire

Idle Mixture Adjustment

NOTE

Be sure engine is fully warm (ECT>180°F [82°C]) before performing the idle mixture adjustment.

The CA100 mixer requires adjustment of the idle mixture screw to assure optimal emissions and performance. This adjustment accounts for minor part-to-part variations in the fuel system and assures stable performance of the engine at idle.

Once adjusted, the idle mixture screw is sealed with a tamper proof cap, after which it need not be adjusted for the life of the vehicle.

Therefore, the only situations in which the idle mixture screw needs to be adjusted are when the engine is initially fitted with a fuel system at the factory and following the field replacement of the mixer. Under these situations, follow the procedures below for adjustment of the idle mixture screw.

Factory Test Preparation:

1. Install the MI-07 fuel system, wiring harness and SECM-48 control module on the engine.

2. All coolant hoses should be attached, filled with coolant and bled to remove any air.

3. Attach LPG fuel lines.

4. Attach wiring harness to battery power.

5. Attach exhaust system.

6. If present, set fuel select switch to LPG fuel.

When operated at the factory, it is critical to simulate the airflow found on a forklift at idle as nearly as possible in order to achieve the proper air valve lift in the mixer. It may be necessary to place a load on the engine to achieve the required airflow without overspeeding the engine. Means of achieving this load include: a) Place an electrical load on the alternator. The alternator should be able to briefly hold loads of approximately 1.2 kW. b) Attach the engine to a dynamometer.

Woodward 57

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Factory Adjustment Procedure:

NOTE

Be sure engine is fully warm (ECT>180°F [82°C]) before performing the idle mixture adjustment.

1. Operating the engine on LPG fuel, start the engine and permit the engine to warm up until the coolant temperature (ECT on Mototune display) is approximately 180°F (82 o

C).

2. Set APP input to minimum.

3. Adjust the load until engine speed reaches 750 RPM.

4. Mototune display parameter LP Fuel Control must display “Closed Loop.”

5. Use the Mototune Service Tool to monitor Duty Cycle % on the Mototune display.

6. To adjust the idle mixture screw, use a 3/16” hex or Allen-type wrench.

Turning the screw in (clockwise) should increase the duty cycle; turning the screw out (counter-clockwise) should decrease the duty cycle.

7. Adjust the idle mixture screw on the mixer until a reading of 40-47% is reached for the FTV Duty Cycle in Closed Loop Idle (Figure 37).

Closed Loop

Duty Cycle%

Figure 37. FTV Duty Cycle Percentage Displayed on Service Tool

8. Use the accelerator pedal to increase RPM above idle momentarily (rev

the engine) then release the pedal to return to idle RPM. The duty cycle setting should remain within the adjustment range (40-47%).

9. Use the Mototune Service Tool to lock the FTV duty cycle. Set display parameter DitherValveDC_ovr = locked (displayed in screen tab Manual

Override 1 under AFR Trim Vales, select “locked” under box labeled

Lock DC%).

10. Use the Mototune Service Tool to monitor throttle position (TPS

1

) and

Exhaust gas oxygen equivalence ratio (“O

2

Value” in Figure 1). While monitoring O

2

, slowly increase the pedal input (APP) to achieve a TPS

1 value of 15%.

11. Use the Mototune Service Tool to unlock the FTV duty cycle. Set display parameter DitherValveDC_ovr = unlocked (displayed in screen tab

Manual Override 1 under AFR Trim Vales, select “unlocked” under box labeled Lock DC%).

12. If at any time in step 10, O

2

was greater than 1.2 go to step 13. If 0

2 remained below 1.2, proceed to Step 15.

Woodward 58

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

13. Adjust the idle mixture screw on the mixer until a reading of 50-55% is reached for the FTV Duty Cycle in Closed Loop Idle (Figure 37).

14. Use the accelerator pedal to increase RPM above idle momentarily (rev

the engine) then release the pedal to return to idle RPM. The duty cycle setting should remain within the adjustment range (50-55%).

NOTE

If the FTV Duty Cycle reading is NOT between 25-60%, check for possible vacuum leaks, manifold leaks, or a faulty mixer.

15. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position to shut down the engine.

16. Install the tamper proof cap on the idle mixture screw adjustment port using a large pin punch, so that no further adjustments can be made

(Figure 38).

Woodward 59

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Field Adjustment Procedure:

The idle mixture adjustment should only be necessary on a new mixer that does not have the tamper proof cap installed. The method for making the idle mixture adjustment to a running engine is to use the Service Tool software by connecting a laptop computer to the SECM. If you do not have the Service Tool, a multimeter capable of measuring duty cycle, such as a Fluke 87 III, can be used.

If using a multimeter, connect the meter positive lead to the battery positive wire and the meter negative to the FTV signal wire. For the Fluke 87, press the

“RANGE” button until 4 or 40 appears in the lower right-hand corner of the display. Press the “Hz” button twice so that the percent sign (%) appears on the right-hand side of the display. The multimeter will then read the duty cycle percentage the just like the Service Tool shown in Figure 37.

1. After installing a new mixer, operate the engine on LPG fuel. Start the engine and permit it to warm up until the coolant temperature (ECT on

Mototune display) is approximately 180°F (82 o

C).

2. Place the transmission in Neutral.

3. Mototune display parameter LP Fuel Control must display “Closed Loop”.

4. Use the Mototune Service Tool to monitor Duty Cycle % on the Mototune display.

5. To adjust the idle mixture screw, use a hex or Allen-type wrench. Turning the screw in (clockwise) should increase the duty cycle; turning the screw out (counterclockwise) should decrease the duty cycle.

6. Adjust the idle mixture screw on the mixer until a reading of 45-55% is reached for the FTV Duty Cycle in Closed Loop Idle (Figure 37). If engine idle performance is unstable screw the idle screw in slightly to see if stability is obtained, but in no case should duty cycle exceed 60%.

7. Use the accelerator pedal to increase RPM above idle momentarily (rev

the engine) then release the pedal to return to idle RPM. The duty cycle setting should remain within the adjustment range (45-55%).

8. If the FTV duty cycle reading is above 55% adjust the idle adjustment screw outward and re-check the duty cycle reading. Continue to do this until the FTV duty cycle reading is within the optimum range (45-55%).

DO NOT adjust the screw so far outward that the tamper proof cap cannot be installed. A duty cycle measurement at Closed Loop Idle of

40-60% is acceptable if the optimum range of 45-55% cannot be reached through adjustment. If the FTV duty cycle cannot be adjusted below

60%, the mixer is faulty and should be replaced.

NOTE

If the FTV Duty Cycle reading is NOT between 25-60%, check for possible vacuum leaks, manifold leaks, or a faulty mixer.

9. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position to shut down the engine.

10. Install the tamper proof cap on the idle mixture screw adjustment port using a large pin punch, so that no further adjustments can be made

(Figure 38).

Basic Troubleshooting

Preliminary Checks

MI-07 systems are equipped with built-in fault diagnostics. Detected system faults can be displayed by the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and are covered in Chapter 8, Advanced Diagnostics. However, items such as fuel level, plugged fuel lines, clogged fuel filters, and malfunctioning pressure regulators may not set a fault code and usually can be corrected with the basic troubleshooting steps described on the following pages.

If engine or drivability problems are encountered with your MI-07 system, perform the checks in this section before referring to Advanced Diagnostics.

NOTE: Locating a problem in a propane engine is done exactly the same as with a gasoline engine. Consider all parts of the ignition and mechanical systems as well as the fuel system.

BEFORE STARTING . . .

1. Determine that the SECM and the MIL are operating. Verify operation by keying on engine and checking for flash of the MIL.

When the ignition key is turned on, the MIL will illuminate and remain on until the engine is started. Once the engine is started, the MIL will go out unless one or more fault conditions are present. If a detected fault condition exists, the fault or faults will be stored in the memory of the

SECM. Once an active fault occurs the MIL will illuminate and remain

ON. This signals the operator that a fault has been detected by the

SECM.

2. Determine that there are no diagnostic codes stored, or there is a diagnostic code but no MIL.

VISUAL/PHYSICALCHECK

Several of the procedures call for a “Careful Visual/Physical Check” which should include:

• SECM grounds for being clean and tight.

• Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper connection.

• Air leaks at throttle body mounting and intake manifold.

• Exhaust system leaks.

• Ignition wires for cracking, hardness, proper routing, and carbon tracking.

• Wiring for pinches and cuts.

Also check:

• Connections to determine that none are loose, cracked, or missing

• Fuel level in vehicle is sufficient

• Fuel is not leaking

• Battery voltage is greater than 11.5 volts

• Steering, brakes, and hydraulics are in proper condition and vehicle is safe to operate

NOTE

The Visual/Physical check is very important, as it can often correct a problem without further troubleshooting and save valuable time.

Woodward 61

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Basic Troubleshooting

Intermittent Faults

An intermittent fault is the most difficult to troubleshoot since the MIL flashes on at random, causing uncertainty in the number of flashes or the conditions present at the time of the fault. Also, the problem may or may not fully turn “ON” the MIL or store a code.

Therefore, the fault must be present or able to be recreated in order to locate the problem. If a fault is intermittent, use of diagnostic code charts may result in the unnecessary replacement of good components.

CORRECTIVE ACTION

Most intermittent problems are caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring.

Perform careful visual/physical check for:

•

Poor mating of the connector halves or terminal not fully seated in the connector body (backed out).

•

Improperly formed or damaged terminal. All connector terminals in problem circuit should be carefully reformed or replaced to insure proper contact tension.

•

Loose connections or broken wires.

•

Poor terminal to wire connection crimp.

If a visual/physical check does not find the cause of the problem, perform the following:

(1) Drive the vehicle with a voltmeter or “Service” tool connected to a suspected circuit. Check if circuit is active and signal is reasonable.

(2) Using the “Service” tool, monitor the input signal to the SECM to help detect intermittent conditions.

(3) An abnormal voltage, or “Service” reading, when the problem occurs, indicates the problem may be in that circuit.

(4) If the wiring and connectors check OK, and a diagnostic code was stored for a circuit having a sensor, check sensor.

An intermittent “Service Engine Soon” light with no stored diagnostic code may be caused by:

•

Ignition coil shortage to ground and arcing at spark plug wires or plugs.

•

MIL wire to ECM shorted to ground.

•

SECM grounds (refer to SECM wiring diagrams).

Check for improper installation of electrical options such as lights, 2-way radios, accessories, etc.

EST wires should be routed away from spark plug wires, distributor wires, distributor housing, coil and generator. Wires from SECM to ignition should have a good connection.

ILLUSTRATION NOTES

[1] Backpressure gage

[2] Pre-catalyst Oxygen (O

2

[3] Exhaust manifold

DIAGNOSIS:

1. With the engine idling at normal operating temperature, observe the exhaust system backpressure reading on the gage. Reading should not exceed 1.25 psig (8.61 kPa).

2. Increase engine speed to 2000 RPM and observe gage. Reading should not exceed 3 psig (20.68 kPa).

3. If the backpressure at either speed exceeds specification, a restricted exhaust system is indicated.

4. Inspect the entire exhaust system for a collapsed pipe, heat distress, or possible internal damage, split welds, or cracked pipe.

5. If there are no obvious reasons for the excessive backpressure, the catalytic converter is restricted and should be replaced using current recommended procedures.

Advanced Diagnostics

MI-07 systems are equipped with built-in fault diagnostics. Detected system faults can be displayed by the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) as Diagnostic

Fault Codes (DFC) or flash codes, and viewed in detail with the use of the

Service Tool software. When the ignition key is turned on, the MIL will illuminate and remain on until the engine is started. Once the engine is started, the MIL lamp will go out unless one or more fault conditions are present. If a detected fault condition exists, the fault or faults will be stored in the memory of the small engine control module (SECM). Once an active fault occurs the MIL will illuminate and remain ON. This signals the operator that a fault has been detected by the SECM.

Reading Diagnostic Fault Codes

All MI-07 fault codes are three-digit codes. When the fault codes are retrieved

(displayed) the MIL will flash for each digit with a short pause (0.5 seconds) between digits and a long pause (1.2 seconds) between fault codes. A code 12 is displayed at the end of the code list.

EXAMPLE: A code 461 (ETC Sticking) has been detected and the engine has shut down and the MIL has remained

ON

. When the codes are displayed the MIL will flash four times (4), pause, then flash six times (6), pause, then flash one time (1) This identifies a four sixty one (461), which is the ETC Sticking fault. If any additional faults were stored, the SECM would again have a long pause, then display the next fault by flashing each digit. Since no other faults were stored there will be a long pause then one flash (1), pause, then two flashes (2).

This identifies a twelve, signifying the end of the fault list. This list will then repeat.

Displaying Fault Codes (DFC) from SECM Memory

To enter code display mode you must turn

OFF

the ignition key. Now turn

ON

the key but do not start the engine. As soon as you turn the key to the

ON

position you must cycle the foot pedal by depressing it to the floor and then fully releasing the pedal (pedal maneuver). You must fully cycle the foot pedal three (3) times within five (5) seconds to enable the display codes feature of the SECM. Simply turn the key

OFF

to exit display mode. The code list will continue to repeat until the key is turned

OFF

.

Clearing Fault (DFC) Codes

To clear the stored fault codes from SECM memory you must complete the reset fault pedal maneuver.

CAUTION

Once the fault list is cleared it cannot be restored.

First turn

OFF

the ignition key. Now turn

ON

the key but do not start the engine.

As soon as you turn the key to the

ON

position you must cycle the foot pedal by depressing it to the floor and then fully releasing the pedal (pedal maneuver).

You must fully cycle the foot pedal ten (10) times within five (5) seconds to clear the fault code list of the SECM. Simply turn the key

OFF

to exit the reset mode.

Woodward 79

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

The code list is now clear and the SECM will begin storing new fault codes as they occur.

Woodward 80

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

Fault Action Descriptions

Each fault detected by the SECM is stored in memory (FIFO) and has a specific action or result that takes place. Listed below are the descriptions of each fault action.

Engine Shutdown: The most severe action is an Engine Shutdown. The MIL will light and the engine will immediately shutdown, stopping spark, closing the fuel lock-off, and turning off the fuel pump and fuel injectors.

Delayed Engine Shutdown: Some faults, such as low oil pressure, will cause the MIL to illuminate for 30 seconds and then shut down the engine.

Cut Throttle: The throttle moves to its default position. The engine will run at idle but will not accelerate.

Turn on MIL: The MIL will light by an active low signal provided by the SECM, indicating a fault condition. The MIL may illuminate with no other action or may be combined with other actions, depending on which fault is active.

Soft Rev Limit / Medium Rev Limit / Hard Rev Limit: System will follow various sequences to bring engine speed back to acceptable levels.

Level4 Power Limit / Level3 Power Limit / Level2 Power Limit / Level1

Power Limit: The maximum engine power output will be limited to one of four possible levels. The engine power is calculated from measured engine parameters (e.g. MAP, RPM, fuel flow, etc).

Disable Gas O

Fault List Definitions

All the analog sensors in the MI-07 system have input sensor range faults. These are the coolant temperature sensor, fuel temperature sensor, throttle position sensors, pedal position sensors, manifold pressure sensor, HEGO sensors, and intake air temperature sensor. Signals to these sensors are converted into digital counts by the SECM. A low/high range sensor fault is normally set when the converted digital counts reach the minimum of 0 or the maximum of 1024

(1024 = 5.0 Vdc with ~ 204 counts per volt).

Additionally, the SECM includes software to learn the actual range of the pedal position and throttle position sensors in order to take full advantage of the sensor range. Faults are set if the learned values are outside of the normal expected range of the sensor (e.g. APP1AdaptLoMin).

LPG & LPG Fuel Tanks

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) consists mainly of propane, propylene, butane, and butylenes in various mixtures. LPG is produced as a by-product of natural gas processing or it can be obtained from crude oil as part of the oil refining process. LPG, like gasoline, is a compound of hydrogen and carbon, commonly called hydrocarbons.

In its natural state, propane is colorless and odorless; an odorant (ethyl mercaptan) is added to the fuel so its presence can be detected. There are currently three grades of propane available in the United States. A propane grade designation of HD5 (not exceeding 5% propylene), is used for internal combustion engines while much higher levels of propylene (HD10) are used as commercial grade propane along with a commercial propane /butane mixture.

An advantage of LPG is the ability to safely store and transport the product in the liquid state. In the liquid state propane is approximately 270 times as dense as it is in a gaseous form. By pressurizing a container of LPG we can effectively raise the boiling point above -44° F (-42° C), keeping the propane in liquid form. The point at which the liquid becomes a gas (boiling point) depends on the amount of pressure applied to the container.

This process operates similarly to an engine coolant system where water is kept from boiling by pressurizing the system and adding a mixture of glycol. For example, water at normal atmospheric pressure will boil at 212° F (100°) C. If an engine’s operating temperature is approximately 230° F (110° C) then the water in an open un-pressurized cooling system would simply boil off into steam, eventually leaving the cooling system empty and overheating the engine. If we install a 10-psig cap on the radiator, pressurizing the cooling system to 10 psig, the boiling point of the water increases to 242° F (117° C), which will cause the water to remain in liquid state at the engine’s operating temperature.

The same principle is applied to LPG in a container, commonly referred to as an

LPG tank or cylinder. Typically an LPG tank is not filled over 80% capacity to allow for a 20% vapor expansion space. Outside air temperature affects an LPG tank and must be considered when using an LPG system. Figure A1 shows the relationship between pressure and temperature in a LPG tank at a steady state condition.

With 128 psig vapor pressure acting against the liquid propane, the boiling point has been raised to slightly more than 80° F (27° C).

NOTE

Vapor pressure inside an LPG tank depends on the propane temperature, not the amount of liquid inside the tank. A tank that is

3/4 full of liquid propane at 80°F (27°C) will contain the same vapor pressure as a tank that is only 1/4 full of liquid propane.

LPG’s relative ease of vaporization makes it an excellent fuel for low-RPM engines on start-and-stop operations. The more readily a fuel vaporizes, the more complete combustion will be. Because propane has a low boiling point

(-44° F [-42° C]), and is a low carbon fuel, engine life can be extended due to less cylinder wall wash down and little, if any, carbon build up.

LPG Fuel Tanks

The two styles of LPG storage containers available for industrial use and lift truck applications are portable universal cylinders and permanently mounted tanks.

Portable universal cylinders are used primarily for off-highway vehicles and are constructed in accordance with the DOT-TC (United States Department of

Transport – Transport Canada). The cylinders are referred to as universal because they can be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position

(Figure A2).

Figure A2. Portable Universal Cylinder

NOTE

A 375-psig relief valve is used on a DOT forklift tank. The relief valve must be replaced with a new valve after the first 12 years and every 10 years thereafter.

The tank must be discarded if the collar is damaged to the point that it can no longer protect the valves. It must also be replaced if the foot ring is bent to the point where the tank will not stand or is easily knocked over.

Installing LPG Fuel Tanks

When installing a tank on a lift truck, the tank must be within the outline of the vehicle to prevent damage to the valves when maneuvering in tight spaces.

Horizontal tanks must be installed on the saddle that contains an alignment pin, which matches the hole in the collar of the tank. When the pin is in the hole, the liquid withdrawal tube is positioned to the bottom of the tank. A common problem is that often these guide-pins are broken off, allowing the tank to be mounted in any position. This creates two problems: (1) Exposure of the liquid withdrawal tube to the vapor space may give a false indication that the tank is empty, when actually it is not. (2). The safety relief valve may be immersed in liquid fuel. If for any reason the valve has to vent, venting liquid can cause a serious safety problem.

CAUTION

Exchange empty tank with a pre-filled replacement tank. Wear safety glasses and gloves when exchanging a tank.

Figure A3. LPG Fuel Tank Components

Fuel Gauge

In Figure A3 a visual fuel gauge is used to show the fuel level in the tank. A mechanical float mechanism detects the liquid propane level. A magnet on the end of the float shaft moves a magnetic pointer in the fuel gauge. Some units have an electronic sending unit using a variable resistor, installed in place of a gauge for remote monitoring of the fuel level. The gauge may be changed with fuel in the tank. DO NOT REMOVE THE FOUR LARGE FLANGE BOLTS THAT

RETAIN THE FLOAT ASSEMBLY WHEN FUEL IS IN THE TANK!

WARNING

It is not a legal practice to fill the tank through the liquid contents gauge.

In some applications a fixed tube fuel indicator is used in place of a float mechanism. A fixed tube indicator does not use a gauge and only indicates when the LPG tank is 80% full. The fixed tube indicator is simply a normally closed valve that is opened during refueling by the fueling attendant. When opened

Woodward 117

Manual 36553 MI-07 Engine Control System for 3.0L Engines

during refueling and the tanks LPG level is below 80%, a small amount of vapor will exit the valve. When the LPG tank level reaches 80% liquid propane will begin exiting the valve in the form of a white mist (Always wear the appropriate protective apparel when refueling LPG cylinders). In order for this type of gauge to be accurate, the tank must be positioned properly. When full (80% LPG) the valve is closed by turning the knurled knob clockwise. Typically a warning label surrounds the fixed tube gauge which reads STOP FILLING WHEN LIQUID

APPEARS.

Pressure Relief Valve

A pressure relief valve is installed for safety purposes on all LPG tanks. Portable fuel tank safety pressure relief valves are a normally closed spring-loaded valve and are calibrated to open at 375 psig tank pressure. This will allow propane vapor to escape to the atmosphere. When tank pressure drops below the preset value, the valve closes.

Service Valve

The service valve is a manually operated valve using a small hand wheel to open and close the fuel supply to the service line (fuel supply line). The service valve installs directly into the tank and has two main categories, liquid and vapor service valves. Liquid service valves used on portable LPG tanks use a 3/8”

(NPT) male pipe thread on the service valve outlet for attachment of a quick disconnect coupler.

An excess flow valve is built into the inlet side of the service valve as a safety device in case of an accidental opening of the service line or damage to the service valve itself. The excess flow valve shuts off the flow of liquid propane if the flow rate of the liquid propane exceeds the maximum flow rate specified by the manufacturer.

CAUTION

The service valve should be completely open when the tank is in use. If the valve is partly open, the vehicle may not get enough fuel to operate efficiently.

In addition to possibly starving the engine for fuel, a partly open valve may restrict the flow enough to prevent the excess flow valve from closing in the event of a ruptured fuel line.

Most liquid service valves have an internal hydrostatic relief valve and are usually labeled “LIQUID WITH INTERNAL RELIEF.” The hydrostatic relief valve protects the fuel service line between the tank and the lock off from over pressurization. The internal hydrostatic relief valve has a minimum opening pressure of 375 psig and a maximum pressure of 500 psig. These relief valves have an advantage over external relief valves because the propane is returned to the tank in the event of an over pressurization instead of venting the propane to the atmosphere.

Quick Disconnect Coupling

The liquid withdrawal or service valve on a DOT tank has male threads and accepts the female portion of a quick disconnect coupling (Figure A5). The female portion is adapted to the liquid hose going to the fuel system. Both halves are equipped with 100% shutoffs, which open when coupled together to allow fuel flow. The coupler has two seals. One is an o-ring and the other is a flat washer. The o-ring prevents leakage from the shaft on the other coupling and the flat washer seals when the coupler is fully connected.

Figure A5. Quick Disconnect Coupling

NOTE

The flat seal and/or the o-ring will sometimes pop off when disconnecting and slide up the shaft of the mating connector, causing the valve not to open when fully mated. Remove the extra washer or o-ring from the shaft and reconnect the coupling.

Filler Valve

The liquid filler valve (Figure A6) has a male thread to receive a fuel nozzle and typically has a plastic or brass screw on cap that is retained with a small chain or plastic band to keep debris out of the filler valve.

The filler valve is a one-way flow device that uses two check valves to allow fuel to enter the tank but prevent it from exiting. Both check valves are backpressure type check valves, designed so that backpressure from the tank assists the check valves own spring pressure to close the valve. The first valve uses a neoprene on metal seal and the second valve uses a metal on metal seal.

A weakness ring is machined into the filler valve just above the check valves and will allow the filler valve to shear off in case of an accident. The valve will break or shear off above the check valves so that the tank will be sealed and no liquid propane can escape.
