WDS sanoo DDE 6.0 E6x:
Swirl flap control DDE6.0
Swirl flaps ensure better swirl of the air. The result is better exhaust emissions.
The adjustable swirl flaps are located in the tangential channels of the intake system and are opened and closed according to the operating status of the engine. In the case of (electrically) controlled swirl flaps, the swirl-flap actuator opens the swirl flaps as the speed increases. Under the following conditions, the swirl flaps are closed:
The swirl flaps generally remain open when
Function
The pressure converter connects the vacuum unit with the vacuum supply by means of hoses. When activated by the DDE control unit, the switchover valve switches vacuum to the vacuum unit. The vacuum unit actuates the control rod and the swirl flaps close. The control rod is up against the rear stop when the swirl flaps are open.

Effects of faults
If the swirl flaps stick in open position: Deterioration in exhaust gas characteristics in lower speed ranges otherwise no effect.
If the swirl flaps stick in closed position: Power loss of approx. 10 % at higher engine speeds.

In the case of (electrically) controlled swirl flaps, the swirl-flap actuator opens the swirl flaps as the speed increases. Under the following conditions, the swirl flaps are closed:
- at low engine speeds and low injection volumes (map-controlled)
The swirl flaps generally remain open when
- the coolant temperature < 15 °C OR
- the intake air temperature < 15 °C
