KPM Fuel Systems have officially launched the KPM Fuel Controller at the Performance Race Industry 2023 Show!

See below information about the PWM Fuel Controller for the VE/VF Commodore.

KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller

KPM Fuel Systems have designed a (Pulse Width Modulated) PWM Fuel Module Controller that can electronically run the 2 pumps housed in the KPM 1500 HP Module and also be further upgraded to run the 3 fuel pumps as housed in the KPM 2200 HP Module  .

We have called it the KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller

Its main purpose is to control the supply of fuel flow in accordance with the engine power/ fuel demand.

It does this by electronically controlling the amount of current supplied to the fuel pumps.

The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller has been designed to be a direct fit addition to all KPM 1500 and 2200 HP Fuel systems.

Cooler Fuel means Increased Performance

Less fuel pump current = less heat = cooler fuel = more power

Supplying fuel to support 1500hp and beyond requires 2 or more high flow fuel pumps, housed in 1 or more in-tank fuel modules. The drawback to this scenario is that 2 or more fuel pumps can generate quite a lot of fuel pump current meaning increased heat.

This transfer of heat needs to go somewhere and therefore, in turn, heats the fuel in the tank.

This is generally not a concern , however if the vehicle is idling or being driven for long periods with a low level of fuel in the tank , the fuel may start to reach a point of losing its full energy potential or start vaporising in the pumps or fuel lines. This can cause long cranking times and hard re-starts. At a worst case the fuel pumps will start to cavitate, lose pressure and not supply fuel as intended.

The KPM PWM controller is pre-programmed to monitor your vehicle fuel pressure across all engine loads which in turn allows the controller to calculate the required level of electrical current to your fuel pumps. This in turn delivers the correct amount of fuel to your engine as required in all conditions.

Vehicle Model Fitment

Vehicles with a Factory FSCM (Fuel System Control Module (Commodore 2010-2017)

The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller comes complete with wiring to be connected to the vehicles factory FSCM to read the OE signals. The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller uses the OE signals from the FSCM to calculate the correct current required to run the pumps accordingly. The KPM PWM can also be programmed utilising the OE fuel system programming tables.

Vehicles without a Factory (FSCM) Fuel System Control Module (Commodore 2006-2009)

The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller can also be used as a stand-alone controller for vehicles not fitted with a factory FSCM. The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller is supplied with a fuel pressure sensor kit and wiring that directly fits your vehicles fuel system.  The fuel pressure is then used to calculate the correct current required to run the pumps accordingly.

Summary

The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller is a vital addition to all high performance, high demand Commodore fuel systems that require multiple pumps and or fuel modules.

It will electronically control the fuel pumps to reliably supply correct amounts of cool dense fuel, only when and where required for engine demands.

Cool dense fuel, increases power and reliability.

It is fully modular when fitted to an existing KPM 1500HP or KPM 2200HP Fuel Module System

The KPM PWM Fuel Module Controller equals increased power and reliability!
