Def System Pressure Control

DEF pressure is maintained via feedback knowledge of sensed pressure. Pressure control is closed loop based on the voltage of the DEF pressure sensor. If a pressure increase is desired, the reductant pump motor speed is increased by increasing the PWM output. Pressure decreases are analogous; as the system has a backflow throttle, pressure will decrease to 0 unless the pump motor in run continuously. Once the set point pressure (500 kPa) is reached the following diagnostics are enabled.

Reductant pressure is maintained via feedback knowledge of sensed pressure. A set point pressure is determined by engine operating conditions (500 kPa over exhaust backpressure). If a pressure increase is desired, the reductant pump motor speed is increased by increasing the PWM output. Pressure decreases are analogous; as the system has a backflow throttle, pressure will decrease to 0 unless the pump motor in run continuously.
