Propane Diesel Injection
An introduction overview of the Powershot Propane Diesel Injection system (PDI) for use in medium and heavy duty vehicles
THE BENEFITS OF USING AUTOGAS
Economical Fuel Consumption
Emissions Reductions
Enhanced Engine Performance
Powershot Propane Diesel Injection provides:
Enhanced Engine PerformanceMaintains and enhances engine power
Allows engine to operate in dual fuel mode or strictly diesel
Provides propane to the engine based on the varying demands of the engine.
Self adjusts to continuously changing work loads
Emissions Reduction
Reduces the emission of Nitrogen Oxides (Nox) and particulates from a diesel engine
Lowers engine emissions without affecting power output
No carburetors or intake restrictions are necessary for air/gas intake
Economical Fuel Consumption
Lowers Diesel Fuel Cost by extending run times per tank of diesel fuel Reduces the diesel fuel utilized by the engine
Why choose a Powershot PDI??
Propane Diesel Injection SystemHow it works….
The Powershot PDI uses a patented technology that mixes a small amount of gas (vapor propane) with the intake air of a turbo charged diesel engine, prior to the introduction of that air into the engine.

How is it implemented?
A propane motor fuel tank is attached to the vehicle with the PDI system. All tanks are manufactured to ASME and DOT standards.
Only two lines are routed to the engine compartment; one to provide boost pressure to the PDI system. The other hose provides for the delivery of propane vapor to the air intake just before the turbo charger.

Why it is so beneficial…
The small amount of propane increases the combustion efficiency of the diesel burn producing more mpg and less emissions and enhanced performance.

What are the costs & ROI?
The entire system (tank, brackets, PDI unit, and connection lines and fittings) cost averages $1600-$2000 installed.
ROI is realized very quickly depending on annual mileage.
Fuel cost savings vary depending on type of vehicle and application.
In most cases total fuel cost per mile reductions range from 4 to 12 cents per mile resulting in total fuel cost savings of 5 to 15%.
Proven in the Real World
City Fleets
Rear loaders areusing 5 gallonsless diesel per day.
Westfield School District, Westfield, WI Scott Petersen, Transportation Director for Westfield Public Schools, reports a
2.0 mpg increase in fuel economy on this 2002 International DT 466 as well as a 25% increase in performance. A unique application, this bus runs on B100 Bio Diesel, made, under supervision, by the students from waste vegetable oil.
Concho Elementary School District, Concho AZ
John Bedway, Transportation director, purchased the system for additional power and also received cost per mile reductions of .04 per mile.
