RevFlow
Injector Carburetor
Technical Study (continued)
The fuel inlet fitting
is a flared AN-4. The unit is mounted to the intake
system by a hose and two clamps. The hose I.D.
on most units is 1.5". Flanged adapters can
be provided on request.
In the event multiple units
are required, such as for in-line engine applications,
up to four units can be ganged on a single throttle
shaft.
RevFlow injector sizes range
from 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, and 44mm.
An alternate air source assembly is recommended
for most single unit installations. This unit
consists of an air filter, open on both ends,
mounted onto the air horn of the injector and
held on with a clamp. The ram air tube is clamped
onto the opposite end.
The tube incorporates a valve
that controls the ram air. When in the closed
position the ram air is cut off and the engine
is digesting warm filtered cowled air.
The RevFlow injector is a 1
to 2 psi low pressure injector. It will function
well on gravity feed, although some applications
require a fuel pump. When a fuel pump is installed,
the fuel pressure should be maintained at a nominal
1.5 psi. This is best accomplished with a fuel
return line to the source. The return line can
be restricted to achieve the 1.5 psi.
For VW engine applications,
Revmaster manufactures a special oil pump/fuel
pump/oil filter assembly. This allows for an engine-driven
fuel pump to be incorporated into certain requirements.
The RevFlow injector unit is
floatless; therefore, it lends itself to many
installation configurations; horizontal, vertical,
etc. The RevFlow injectors have been installed
in many various types of experimental aircraft
over the years, with excellent service history.
The unit is not type certificated and no such
claims have been made, intentionally or otherwise.
