New Dyno Capabilities

Installation, commissioning and testing is now complete for our new 5000 hp engine dyno system at our off-highway facility in Ontario, California.

This will be Valley’s largest engine dyno system, and joins a 2250 hp unit in our West Sacramento branch, another 2500 hp unit in Bakersfield, and a 500 hp unit in San Diego.  These are in addition to the truck chassis dynamometers we have in Sacramento, Bakersfield, City of Industry, Mira Loma, and San Diego.     These engine test systems are an essential part of the engine overhaul process.  It gives Valley the ability to fully test an overhauled engine to assure the engine is operating as it was designed, and making the horsepower and torque the customer is paying for.  The customer receives a unit back that is fully broken in, tested, and ready to go to work. The new Taylor Data Acquisition System has eight available pressure monitoring and 32 temperature inputs allowing us to measure and record...

Waukesha Gas Engines VHP Series Four with emPact Emission Control System

GE’s Waukesha Series Four rich-burn engines are the engines of choice for the harshest and most demanding gas compression, power generation and mechanical drive applications. The Series Four engines can reliably produce more power on hot field gases, at high altitudes, and in remote locations, all while delivering low emissions when paired with a 3-way catalyst (NSCR). Waukesha’s emPact Emission Control System combines an engine, catalyst, and air/fuel ratio control, factory designed for optimal interaction and maximum performance. It consists of a GE-supplied catalyst, pre- and post-catalyst oxygen sensing, and differential temperature and pressure sensors. emPact’s closed loop control system measures the engine exhaust and automatically adjusts the air/fuel ratio to keep the catalyst operating at maximum efficiency, even as speed, load, fuel, and ambient conditions change.   The emPact display panel provides real-time engine operating parameters, including faults, alarms, and shutdowns. A logging function allows all data—including catalyst temperature and pressure differential—to be saved to a USB device to simplify emissions reporting. Waukesha’s emPact Emission...
