IMI Precision Engineering group of companies offers a wide range of different solutions for the commercial vehicle sector, which was extended recently by new IMI Buschjost piston stop valves. Especially for buses and trucks driven by natural gas, the new valves of the 85410 and 85430 series control the gas supply from the tank to the engine.
The new IMI Buschjost stop valves are based on existing technology: their baseline is the 85360 series of 2/2-way piston seat valves, which are customized for use in industrial systems, and have been developed further to meet the requirements of the commercial vehicle sector. This is why the new valves are optimally suited for use in natural-gas-powered drive systems in motor vehicles. Extensive trials and load tests have revealed that the 85410 and 85430 series comply with all the requirements of ECE regulation 110; a type approval, issued by the German “Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt” (Federal Motor Transport Authority), demonstrates this result.
The new IMI Buschjost valves are fitted with a robust solenoid that complies with the requirements of ECE-R110 and the EMC regulations of ECE-R10. It possesses protection class IP69K and has a long working life, is dust proof and resistant to the impacts of water and dirt. In the commercial vehicle sector, the solenoid has already proven itself over millions of kilometres.
