350 BHP Solenoids!

News Summary:

As a consequence of further intensive R&D work, we've now increased the maximum flow of our Nitrous Pulsoid beyond 350 BHP!

As you all may well know we’re never entirely happy with a design and we’re constantly researching and testing ways to improve current designs. A lot of our time is spent trying to improve the heart of the nitrous system – The solenoids.

Generally, the more a solenoid flows the bigger it is and the more current it draws. It also ends up being heavy and becomes less responsive to PWM. The goal was to develop a solenoid that did flow big numbers but didn’t suffer any of the above problems. The key would be to keep the same coil, the same body and the same plunger.

Basically the magnetic strength produced by the coil needed to be improved so the solenoid could open against a greater load. Lot’s of research and testing later we came up with a method that dramatically improved the strength of the coil without drawing more current. In fact we were astonished at the improvement we’d achieved. Not only did the solenoid nearly double its standard flow capacity but the response to PWM was incredible – nearly as good as our regular Pulsoid.

With some careful work we actually achieved a whopping 380 BHP out of one of the test pieces! So now we can produce a solenoid that not only flows BIG numbers, but is smaller, lighter and draws less current than a conventional solenoid of equal capacity. And with almost the same response to PWM as our regular Pulsoid!
