Solenoid valves

  • Open/closed type or variable intermediate switches, which start or regulate other switches like pneumatic EGR valves.
  • There are many electropneumatic valves inside the engine management system. They include switching solenoid valves, electric and electro-pneumatic pressure converters.

Vacuum pumps

  • It is a new line recently added to our programme.
  • It is a mechanical device that removes gas from the vacuum chamber, where the pump is connected.
  • It is necessary for the current functioning of central locking systems, air conditioners, automatic gears, harmful substances reduction systems and other control elements.

EGR Valves and Modules, Coolers

  • The EGR system is composed of different components such as actuators, pipes, valves and coolers separate or pre-assembled.
  • It is a wide range composed of genuine, remanufactured and aftermarket valves, able to satisfy the needs of even the most self-demanding customers, meeting the market quality requirements.
  • The EGR cooler uses engine coolant to reduce exhaust gas temperatures prior to recirculating them through the engine’s intake system. Reducing engine combustion temperature helps prevent the formation of Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx).
  • Some coolers incorporate the EGR valve, others feature a by-pass valve which exclude the gases passage, so as to keep emissions constant during starting, acceleration and engine idle speed. ERA provides the valves with or without integrated cooler.

Ignition coils

  • Ignition coils represent one of the top ranges, which allow ERA to achieve the market leadership in Italy and throughout the world.
  • Coils have been through several important transformations in order to adapt to the continuous changes in terms of engine performance, fuel consumption and environmental pollution. The most important ones concern:
    • Power increase
    • Timing improvement in energy transformation
    • Reduction of dispersions
    • Use without ignition cables
    • Reduction of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) problems
  • Today ERA’s range includes:
    • Traditional coils with cooling oil
    • Dry coils with ignition module
    • Coils for static system
    • Single / multiple coils, like Top / Pencil coil
  • Our wide range of ignition coils provides comprehensive car parc coverage, from European to Asian applications, thanks to a diversified offer, able to meet any customer’s request.

Glow plugs

  • They reduce consumption and exhaust gas.
  • They trigger the combustion process, which includes two steps: first, when slightly turning the key, the spark plug warms up in a few seconds up to more than 1,000° in the final part. Then furtherly turning the key, ignition starts. The pulverized fuel is injected into the chamber and strikes the glowing part of the plug thereby starting combustion.
  • Available for cars with single or double filament plugs (control and heating) with conventional or ultra-fast preheating.

Fuel pumps and Fuel feed units

  • Fuel pumps and feed units are one of the company’s most important product lines. It is an accurate selection of products conceived on the basis of current market needs. The range is constantly updated, introducing new OE and alternative versions.
  • The consumption and the vehicle speed determine the shape and volume of the tank. The structure of the tank influences the shape of the feed unit, its position and the fuel measuring method.
  • ERA offer genuine units as well as an excellent purchasing alternative: aftermarket items, guaranteeing high performances and reliable quality, tested by ERA’s Quality Control team. The products are tested to guarantee the typical quality of the ERA brand and the following parameters are checked in order to examine the electric pump inside the fuel system, namely:
    • Flow (l/h),
    • Current consumption (Ampere)
    • Level of vibrations / noise (dB)

Alternators

  • An electromechanical device that provides energy to the electrical system of the vehicle, recharging the battery with electricity.
  • Essential for all the vehicle tools, particularly for the engine start.
  • ERA offer a wide range of alternator spare parts such as:
    • Regulators
    • Rectifiers
    • Free wheel pulleys
    • Bearings
    • Sliprings

Starters

  • The shape, size and performance of the starter are determined by diesel / petrol engine features.
  • Turning the key in the dashboard triggers off the solenoid switch that, through the fork, moves the drive until its gear with the engine fly-wheel. At this point the rotation of the starter gets diesel or petrol engine to start off. Thanks to the reducer, the drag torque is able to overcome the inertia of pistons and crankshaft.
  • ERA offer a wide range of spare parts for starters such as:
    • Starter drives
    • Solenoids
    • Moving contacts
    • Caps
    • Brush sets
    • Brush holders
