PR Newswire (US)
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., July 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BorgWarner
(NYSE:BWA) is developing new high-flow air pump technology designed
to address its global customers' need to meet increasingly
stringent industry standards for emissions and fuel economy. "As a
worldwide market leader in air management systems, BorgWarner plays
a significant role in our customers' ability to reduce vehicle
cold-start hydrocarbons and meet super ultra-low emissions vehicle
(SULEV) standards," said Roger Wood, President and General Manager,
BorgWarner Turbo & Emissions Systems. The new BorgWarner
high-flow air pump technology enables the replacement of dual-pump
systems with a single, submersible, high-flow pump -- called
1000-T3. The benefits include reductions in cost, space, and
weight, as well as enhanced energy conversion efficiency. The
latter enables the pump to convert electric power into more flow
and pressure. The pump also provides flexibility in engine and
catalyst packaging. "Opportunities for product leadership in air
management systems continue to increase, as stricter emissions
regulations are adopted in North America, Europe, and Asia, and
engines are redesigned for improved fuel consumption to meet these
higher standards," Wood said. "At BorgWarner we address these
challenges every day. We are well-positioned to make the most of
these opportunities to help our customers succeed." Auburn Hills,
