n-PAC™ Technology Benefits

n-PAC™

Technology Initiates combustion quicker and more consistently Extracts more energy from the fuel charge

Benefits Higher torque Faster throttle response Reduced fuel consumption Lower exhaust emissions

Compared to a Conventional Spark Plug

How n-PAC™ Technology Works

Electrical energy stored in the integrated capacitor

Spark gap ionization automatically triggers the capacitor to release all stored energy

Spark event begins with a very short 5MW blast from the capacitor

Air/fuel mix is ionized and saturated with energy-rich plasma

Following spark precisely and robustly ignites the ionized (destabilized) air/fuel mix

“It looks like a sparkplug… because it can”
