Common rail direct injection CDI, general 

The common rail direct injection (CDI) regulates an optimal injection quantity under all operating conditions. The engine management takes place through the CDI control unit.

The engine management is subdivided into the following systems:

Glow system control 

The CDI actuates the glow output stage via the CDI control unit. This in turn actuates the glow plugs (R9):

Engine system 

Diesel injection system 

One differentiates between preglowing, start-up glowing and afterglowing.

Fuel supply 

The fuel system control unit (N118/9) actuates the fuel pump with the fill level sensor (M3/6), which supplies fuel to the high-pressure pump via the fuel filter. Depending on actuation by the CDI control unit, the quantity control valve (Y94/4) regulates the feed to the high-pressure pump to about 4.0 bar.

Injection quantity control 

The high-pressure pump pushes the fuel with an increased pressure in the common rail which distributes the fuel to the fuel injectors (Y76). The CDI control unit actuates the fuel injectors, rotational speed and load-dependent:

Differentiation is made between preinjection, main injection and post-injection. The system's maximum injection pressure is 1600 bar.
