USA – Jacobs Vehicle Systems of Bloomfield, Connecticut, USA has introduced Active Decompression Technology (ADT), enabling heavy-duty commercial vehicles to benefit from an engine stop-start system and eliminating engine-shake at both start-up and shutdown. In addition to improving fuel economy and reducing emissions, ADT also improves cold engine starts, reduces loading and wear on engine components during start-up, and makes start-up faster.
Jacobs’ ADT device incorporates proven valve actuation technologies and can be cost-effectively added to many engine platforms.
