Revotron 1.2T

81

Components :

1. Exhaust Manifold :

The exhaust manifold is mounted on the

cylinder head. The exhaust gases are trapped

out from the engine through the exhaust

manifold.

2. Lambda Sensor :

The oxygen sensor operates on the

principle of galvanic oxygen concentration cell

(Nernst cell) with solid electrolyte (Nernst's

principle). The ceramic sensing element is a

conductor of oxygen ions from a temperature

of 350 C. A heater is integrated on the

sensing element. It is placed into the exhaust

manifold. The sensing element compares the

residual oxygen content in the exhaust gas

with the oxygen content in the reference

atmosphere (air surrounding the sensing

element). This gives an output voltage

between 100mV (lean exhaust gas) to 800mV

(rich exhaust gas), depending on whether the

exhaust gas is lean or rich.

3. Close Coupled Catalytic Converter (CCC) :

The Close Coupled Catalytic Converter is

a critical element of the system used to

reduce vehicle exhaust emissions. The

catalytically active element within the

converter lowers the activation energy needed

to selectively transform harmful combustion

products into less harmful gases. The catalyst

becomes active when it reaches a threshold

temperature.

Close coupled Catalytic Converter is

physically positioned very close to the engine

exhaust ports to enable quicker light-off.

Benefits -:

Positioned close to the engine exhaust

ports for fast light-off and reduced cold

start emissions.

Internally insulated construction design

enables improved durability, reduced heat

rejection and lower noise.

4. Muffler Assy :

To attenuate or muffle the Engine noise

emitted from the vehicle to the surroundings.
