Figure 14 The pumping element (5) is oriented on the cam on the pump shaft. In the suction phase, the pumping element is fed through the supply line (3). The amount of fuel to send to the pumping element Depending on the command received from the control unit, the pressure regulator will control the flow of fuel to the pumping The pump shaft supports are lubricated through the ducts (oil channels) (8). The pressure regulator (7) decides the amount of fuel with which to supply the pumping elements; any excess fuel flows out The pressure relief valve (10), has the function of keeping a constant inlet pressure at 5 bar for the pressure regulator. High pressure regulator If there is no command signal, the pressure regulator is normally open, so the high—pressure pump is in the condition of maximum The control unit sends the regulator a command signal to control the fuel flow to the high—pressure pump. 1.
