Stanadyne India, a fully-owned subsidiary of Stanadyne (USA), is debuting two new fuel systems – Gasoline Pumping Injector (GPI) and Solenoid Controlled Unit Pump (SCUP) – for small engines to meet the upcoming BS-VI emission regulations in the Indian market. The new systems have been developed as cost-effective replacements for mechanical systems in 2- and 3-wheeler applications.
Dr. John Pinson, Stanadyne President, Chief Technology Officer, said: “Stanadyne as a global fuel injection system developer is committed to enabling the next generation of clean and fuel-efficient engines in India. Solving the unique regional challenges faced by our customers with tailor-made products is part of our company philosophy – the technology in our GPI and SCUP products is an ideal example of this.”
The GPI is an integrated pump and injector that fits in the footprint of the mechanical carburetors commonly used on small gasoline engines today. The SCUP is an electronically-controlled unit pump that offers precise timing and fuel delivery control and is an alternative to diesel common rail technology.
“These products are developed for the Indian OEMs to seamlessly transition engines into an era of cleaner power and energy. Aside from addressing India’s upcoming emissions requirements, the GPI has the capability to serve the global market as well”, stated Mr. Sanjay Chadda, Managing Director, Stanadyne Near East.
Stanadyne’s GDI technology has been designed primarily for 3-cylinder plus passenger-vehicle engines. SCUP offers alternative low-cost solutions that require fewer engine modifications compared to more complex systems like port fuel injection and diesel common rail.
Stanadyne India is targeting a turnover of Rs. 1,200 crores by 2021, with BS-VI engine fuel systems as the primary growth driver.
