Combustion Control Module

The CCM( Combustion Control Module) is a system which enables in real time data acquisition of cylinder pressure on engines. Data can be recorded from up to 20 cylinders for closed loop control applications and to diagnose malfunctions or to assist in the setting and optimising of engine parmeters e.g. balancing cylinder.
IMES offers fixed and portable CCM systems for diesel and gas engines.

CCM MARINE

CCM Marine 2 stroke performance is a multi channel data acquisition unit for 2 to 12 cylinders for fixed installation with our TCS-01CA sensor on 2-stroke diesel engines. It is easy to use as an online solution for condition and performance monitoring. The combustion pressure is measured in each cylinder continuously and in parallel speed range 40…900 rpm.

The CCM software together with the new IMES TPE performance evaluation software allows an easy collection, management and comparison of engine performance data. Performance graphs and reports show deviation and suggest actions to take.

This enables extensive savings by reducing fuel and oil consumption.

CCM GAS ENGINE CONTROL

CCM Gas Engine control is designed for pressure control in a closed loop system. It enables continuously cylinder balancing to increase the engine operating stability and to keep the peak cylinder pressures at a suitable level. Combustion knock can be realised and operating parameters can be adjusted immediately.

The misfire detection prevents incomplete combustion which makes the engine unstable and decreases the efficiency. When knocking or misfiring is detected the data will be transmitted from CCM by CAN bus to the automation system which acts to stabilise engine operation.

Optimising engine settings to improve combustion, thus minimising gas consumption and NOx emissions, based on cylinder pressure readings will become increasingly important to meet IMO Tier III emissions limits in Emissions Control Areas (ECAs).
