"Our newest facility will enable BorgWarner to strengthen its market-leading position in EGR coolers and meet growing demand with a complete range of EGR products for both passenger cars and commercial diesel vehicles," said Brady Ericson, President and General Manager, BorgWarner Emissions Systems. "We are investing in local production as well as local testing to support our customers quickly with system-based solutions tailored to their specific needs."
Today's downsized engines generate higher temperatures in the combustion chamber forming nitrogen oxide (NOx). BorgWarner's EGR technologies help automakers reduce NOx to meet stringent emissions regulations by recirculating and cooling exhaust gases to reduce combustion temperatures. BorgWarner's extensive expertise in advanced EGR technologies covers the entire system. BorgWarner's valves control exhaust gases that flow through tubes to a cooler where gas temperatures drop to 130 degrees C - 175 degrees C and then return to the combustion chamber. The valves are driven by robust actuators, built for durability and performance. BorgWarner EGR systems are engineered for nearly any application from passenger cars to commercial trucks.
BorgWarner's new environmentally friendly facility in India makes maximum use of natural light, features LED lighting to conserve energy and harvests rainwater for landscaping and sanitation.
