Pierburg Products – Precision in Fuel and Air Supply
Fuel pumps are an essential part of the internal combustion engine's fuel system, delivering fuel under high pressure from the tank to the injection system. Pierburg offers a wide range of high-quality fuel pumps that can be easily matched to your vehicle. Accessories such as secondary air valves, secondary air pumps, and fuel pump seals are also available.
Pierburg's vacuum pumps are designed to generate a vacuum of 0.7 to 0.9 bar in engines equipped with direct injection, turbocharging, and variable valve timing. The air generated is directed to the cylinder head or crankcase housing.
Air flow meters from Pierburg measure the amount of air entering the engine, enabling the engine control unit to regulate the fuel supply accurately. By using Pierburg's precise air flow meters, you ensure your engine receives the correct fuel-air mixture, enhancing performance and fuel economy.
Pierburg also produces air throttles, precise devices that control the air intake in petrol engines. The degree of throttle opening is adjusted based on the angle of the accelerator pedal.
Pierburg Products – EGR Valves
The EGR valve is a critical component of the exhaust gas recirculation system, found in both petrol and diesel engines. It is more commonly associated with wear and tear in diesel engines.
Pierburg's EGR valves are advanced devices that open precisely based on signals from the engine control unit. Proper EGR valve operation impacts fuel efficiency and emissions, making it essential to replace worn-out parts with Pierburg products for reliable performance over thousands of miles.
Other Products by Pierburg
Pierburg's extensive range of automotive components goes beyond the parts mentioned above. The catalogue also includes lambda sensors, exhaust gas coolers, oil pumps, water pumps, and more.
All Pierburg automotive parts are characterised by high precision, ensuring not only durability but also optimal performance for your engine and other vehicle systems.
