Product catalog summary
Overview
The E²PRECON-M is a robust system designed for real-time analysis of cylinder pressure in engines, supporting up to 24 cylinders. It is part of the E²PRECON family by AVAT, which has been pioneering cylinder pressure-based engine control since 2006.

Specifications
  • Supports a wide range of cylinder pressure sensors from various manufacturers.
  • Utilizes digital signal processing algorithms to compute combustion characteristics for each cylinder and cycle.
  • Calculates net heat release rate (netHRR), heat release (HR), start, duration, and center of combustion (SoC/DoC/CoC), indicated mean effective pressures (IMEP), peak pressures, and knock levels.
  • Includes sensor health monitoring and signal plausibility checks.
  • Integrates with engine control systems and PLCs via CAN bus.

Features
  • On-engine mounting with consistent shielding via M12 plug.
  • Marine type approvals from ABS, BV, DNV GL, and LR.

E²PRECON-M-1

AWVT THE ENERGY ENGINEERING COMPANY E2PRECON-ME2PRECON-M processes signals of pressure sensors from up to 24 cylinders in rough conditions and provides real-time combustion characteristics for closed-loop control and monitoring. With the E2PRECON family AVAT has pioneered cylinder pressure based engine control since 2006. The M-series offers comprehensive real-time cylinder pressure analysis in a robust design. E2PRECON-M supports a wide range of cylinder pressure sensors from various manufacturers. Using well-proven digital signal processing algorithms E2PRECON-M computes combustion characteristics for each cylinder and every combustion cycle. These are the key parameters engine builders need to implement advanced combustion control, monitoring and diagnosis. Incorporating thermodynamic models, E2PRECON-M calculates the net heat release rate (netHRR). From this, important combustion parameters such as heat release (HR), start, duration and center of combustion (SoC / DoC / CoC) are computed. Indicated mean effective pressures (IMEP), peak pressures and knock levels are also provided. Since cylinder pressure sensors have a limited life time, sensor health monitoring and signal plausibility checks are included. E2PRECON-M is easily integrated into engine control systems and PLCs via CAN bus. • Your key to cylinder pressure based combustion control • On-engine mounting • Consistent shielding, via M12 plug incl. sensor supply • Marine type approvals ABS, BV, DNV GL, LR • Enables balancing, misfire and knock detection • Service tool assists in engine diagnostics and data export • Interface to condition monitoring systems • Library for Bachmann PLC included (others on request)
