The fuel pressure regulating valve (N276)<br />
is located on the lower section of the intake<br />
manifold and is screwed in place between the<br />
fuel rail and the return line leading to the fuel<br />
tank.<br />
Task<br />
The task of the fuel pressure regulating valve is to<br />
adjust the fuel pressure in the fuel rail<br />
irrespective of the injection quantity and pump<br />
delivery rate.<br />

If deviations from the setpoint pressure are<br />
detected, the fuel pressure regulating valve is<br />
activated by a pulse-width modulated signal<br />
from the engine control unit. As a result of this, a<br />
magnetic field is induced in the magnetic coil<br />
and the valve <strong>with</strong> the valve ball lifts off the valve<br />
seat. In this way, the flow cross-section to the<br />
return line is changed depending on signal size,<br />
thus altering the discharge rate and regulating<br />
the fuel pressure.<br />

The regulating valve is closed in de-energized<br />
state. This ensures that sufficient fuel pressure is<br />
always present. To protect the components<br />
against excessively high pressures, a springoperated<br />
mechanical pressure limiting device is<br />
built into the fuel pressure regulating valve. It<br />
opens at a fuel pressure of 120 bar.<br />
