This single fire coil was developed for the use e.g. in GDI (turbocharged) high performance engines. It is designed for direct cylinder head mounting.
For this single fire coil the customer can define the length of the spark plug connector.
The main benefits of this high performance coil are its high energy capability and a very good provided high voltage.

Installation Notes
During mounting of the spark plug please pay attention that full clamping and proper contacts are made to ensure safe connection between coil and spark plug. |
This coil is only for use with engine control units having an integrated ignition power stage, e.g. IGBT IRG4BC40S or BIP. |
For technical reasons the values of the coils may vary. |
Please regard the specified limit values (see “Electrical Data”). |
Usage above Iprim = 16 A or 40 kV may reduce the lifetime. |
Please find further application hints in the offer drawing at our homepage. |
In case of ignition-caused malfunctions, please use screened sensor wires. |
Design Note
We strongly recommend the design of the spark plug shaft has to ensure that there are no sharp edges in the shaft geometry due to design or machining. Only in compliance with this recommendation, a proper function can be ensured. |
