EC12 Engine Control Module for engines up to 12 cylinders

The hub of your engine control system, EC12 combines state of the art inductive ignition with advanced spark diagnostics in addition to CANBUS communications to provide full access to air/fuel and knock control.

EC12 is a robust, solid-state electronic module that provides highly accurate and extremely powerful inductive ignition, which when tailored with the Gill range of ignition coils, produces spark durations well in excess of any CDI ignition system.

Applications:

  • Chp Engines
  • Generator Set Engines
  • Compressor Engines
  • Commercial Vehicle Engines
  • Forklift Truck Engines
  • Passenger Vehicle Engines

This power and accuracy enable the EC12 to control normally aspirated or turbo-charged engines, running on natural gas, bio gas, LPG and CNG in either lean burn or stoichiometric air/fuel ratios.

Features include:

  • Fully programmable via easy to use Windows® based GUI
  • Flexible User Security Feature
  • Programmable for number of cylinders up to 12-cylinders (24 cylinders possible by linking two units)
  • Ignition point – fully programmable for load, speed, temperature and fuel type
  • Fully programmable dwell with auto supply voltage compensation for total control of spark energy and duration
  • Universal timing disc available
  • Advanced Temperature Mapping
  • Factory configurable for OEM engine timing disc patterns and sensors
  • Fuel valve drive for controlled engine shutdown
  • On-board visible status indicators
  • Advanced diagnostics accessible via GUI
  • Advanced ‘Spark Diagnostics’ to monitor the real-time performance of spark plug voltage and spark duration.
  • CANBUS link for access to advanced features such as air/fuel and knock control using other Gill Engine control modules

Designed to be user-programmable via the Windows® GUI, EC12 provides extensive flexibility. With fully-programmable speed mapping and load mapping curves, in addition to configurable controlled engine shut-down, you can expect to see improved engine efficiency, lower exhaust emissions, reduced engine maintenance and decreased engine operating costs.

Advanced spark diagnostics provide real time spark duration and spark voltage measurement to ensure optimum HT lead / spark plug operation.

With the ability to be factory configured to accept timing information from OEM timing disks and sensors, EC12 reduces engine set-up and development times considerably, helping to ensure that costs are kept to a minimum
