The Prins ValveCare system is an electronically controlled dosing system for petrol engines (MPI, DPI, DI, DI-MPI) that are converted to LPG or CNG. Together with the Prins ValveCare additive, the system aids to keep the combustion chamber cleaner, and to reduce wear of valves, valve seats and the petrol injectors.
Why should you use ValveCare?
The valves and valve seats in a number of engines are more susceptible to wear when they run on LPG or CNG. This problem does not arise with petrol engines because petrol contains specific additives that lubricate the valves and valve seats. These additives are not present in LPG and CNG. The ValveCare-DI metering system injects these additives in exactly metered quantities together with the LPG or CNG to prevent excessive wear.
How to use ValveCare?
One bottle of ValveCare (1L) is sufficient for approximately 1,000 liters of fuel. The additive reservoir is located under your hood and can be refilled at any time. The additive reservoir has a level sensor that alerts the VSI (DI) system when the additive is low. A blue, flashing exclamation mark will appear on the Prins fuel selector switch. At this point, your car can run on LPG for another 4 hours. After 4 hours (without refilling), the exclamation mark will turn solid blue, and the car will run solely on gasoline. Once the fluid is refilled, the blue exclamation mark will disappear, and you can once again drive on LPG or CNG without worry.
ValveCare additive:
• One bottle of ValveCare (1L) is sufficient for approx. 1.000 liter fuel.
• Do not use or mix other additive with the original Blue Prins ValveCare additive. Use of other additive can harm the system
and warranty will directly expire.
• For more information please contact your official Prins installer.
ValveCare-3 system components
ValveCare-3 is completely integrated in the Prins LPG/CNG system. The Prins ValveCare additive has proven to be reliable, effective and efficient. Your car will only have additive consumption when running on LPG/CNG.
- Rail/pump combination
- Reservoir
- ECU
- Fuse/diagnose connector
- System connector
Prins offers reservoirs in 600 and 1200 ml.
If the engine compartment doesn't have enough space for the reservoir at the top, it can be mounted lower. With an additional filler funnel, the ValveCare fluid can then be filled from the top of the engine compartment.
