Fuel pumps are an essential part of diesel powertrains, transferring the fuel from the tank to the injection system. A typical electric pump is more fuel-efficient than those driven directly by the engine; however, the carbon commutator and brushes found in conventional pumps are subject to wear, which is accelerated by high engine vibration and variations in diesel fuel.
Federal-Mogul has developed a highly durable, cost-effective solution in its brushless diesel fuel pump. Durability tests show that the product can last nearly 20 times longer than a conventional pump. Additionally, the brushless motor’s electrically-driven design reduces the load placed on the engine when compared to conventional belt or gear driven pumps, thereby improving fuel economy and reducing emissions.
Federal-Mogul's brushless diesel fuel pump suits both 12V and 24V applications and is available for diesel engines typically used in the medium/heavy-duty on-highway sector and in the construction, stationary, marine and agricultural sectors. Aftermarket applications of the brushless fuel pump are also available for retro-fitting.
