Injectors, description

Injection timing and the fuel amount to be injected is determined by the control unit E-ECU, which gives signals to the electro-
magnetically controlled fuel valve in the injector's valve housing. The duration of the injection time determines the amount of fuel that
is injected into the cylinder. The 'common rail' system enables more than one injection during the piston's working phase, thus giving
flexible control of the combustion process.
The injection pressure is determined by the pressure in the rail and can vary between 500 bar to 1400 bar (7252–20305 PSI).
The injector nozzles have six holes and are designed to give a uniform spray pattern, despite the angled unit injector and injector
nozzle.
