Compliance Controls AFR-64L Lean-Burn Air-Fuel Control System
Businesses that run lean-burn, spark-ignited natural gas industrial engines face the same challenges as other gas-fueled engine operators – and then some.
- Emissions Control Compliance. While lean-burn engine NOx output is lower than in a rich burn engine, it’s difficult and expensive to reduce lean-burn NOx levels with emission after-treatment systems. And in high-variance, high-transient applications like power generation and gas compression, that job is all the harder for any emission control system.
- Troubleshooting & Maintenance. Engine misfires, ashed catalysts, overheating: these and other glitches not only impair engine performance and fuel efficiency. They can also cost you plenty in maintenance and replacement. Take one example. The unburned fuel coughed into your exhaust stream by a misfiring cylinder can cause a hot catalyst to burst into flame.
- Operational Issues. In any competitive arena, your business suffers when you’re not getting the benefits of today’s most advanced technologies, and tomorrow’s. But keeping up with technology can be costly – in dollars, time, headaches and hassles. And who can afford to keep rocket scientists on board to run engines day-to-day?
Plus: lean-burn engine operators need to handle all those challenges while maximizing engine fuel economy.
Compliance Controls delivers the best solution your money can buy: the AFR-64L Lean-Burn Air-Fuel Control System™.
The Best. Bar None.
The AFR-64L Lean-Burn Air-Fuel Control System was engineered specifically for lean-burn, spark-ignited natural gas engines. It minimizes engine emissions, maximizes fuel efficiency, and cuts engine maintenance costs – by maintaining the proper air-fuel ratio over varying engine loads, speeds, fuel quality, ambient temperatures and barometric pressures.
And the AFR-64L works without operator intervention.
Easy to install, even easier to use, and equipped with a comprehensive 44-fault on-board diagnostics and troubleshooting system, the Windows-based AFR-64L redefines the state-of-the-art – in hardware, microprocessor power, control system software, operator interface options, fast response to varying engine conditions, software upgradeability, you name it.
Dollars & Sense.
Reduced emissions. Improved engine performance – with greater fuel efficiency and reduced fuel costs. Longer, more trouble-free equipment service-life. Fail-safe troubleshooting. Fast, easy installation. Easy, user-friendly operation, with minimal training. Network compatibility, with high-speed data transfer.
