How CHFA Technology Works

Precision hydrogen injection optimized for variable-load engine applications

1

On-Demand Generation

Water electrolysis produces HHO gas on-demand. No storage required - zero safety risk from stored hydrogen.

2

Precision Metering

Low-volume HHO precisely measured and injected based on engine load, RPM, and operating conditions.

3

Enhanced Combustion

HHO increases flame speed and combustion efficiency, resulting in better fuel utilization and lower emissions.

Key Technical Features

Precision Low-Volume

150-3000 ml/min capacity range. Precise dosing based on real-time engine parameters and application requirements.

Variable Load Adaptation

Automatically adjusts HHO generation based on engine load, RPM, and operating conditions for optimal performance.

Retrofit Compatible

Integrates with existing engines without modification. Installation on air intake - no engine changes required.

3-22% Efficiency Gain

Savings depend on engine age and emission standard (Euro/BS). Older engines show higher savings due to carbon cleaning effect. Newer engines deliver 3-8%, older engines achieve 12-22%.

Safety by Design

On-demand generation eliminates storage risks. Multiple fail-safe systems and automatic shutdown protection.

Real-Time Monitoring

Integrated with GreenVision platform for live performance tracking and predictive maintenance.

Savings Vary by Engine Age & Type

Fuel savings from CHFA technology range from 3% to 22%, depending on the engine's age, emission standard, and baseline condition. Older engines show significantly higher savings due to carbon cleaning effects.

Newer Engines (BS-VI, Euro 5/6)

3-8%

Modern engines with advanced emission controls already operate at higher baseline efficiency. CHFA provides incremental efficiency gains.

  • • Lower baseline carbon deposits
  • • Already optimized combustion
  • • Still delivers attractive ROI

Mid-Age Engines (BS-IV, Euro 3/4)

8-15%

Moderate carbon buildup over operating life. CHFA improves efficiency and begins carbon cleaning process.

  • • Moderate carbon deposits present
  • • Efficiency improvement plus cleaning
  • • Excellent ROI potential

Older Engines (BS-III, Pre-Euro 3)

12-22%

Significant carbon buildup reduces baseline efficiency. CHFA delivers substantial efficiency gains through improved combustion and carbon cleaning.

  • • Heavy carbon deposits cleaned
  • • Maximum efficiency improvement
  • • Outstanding ROI - often under 12 months

Why Older Engines Save More

1

Carbon Deposit Cleaning

HHO combustion breaks down accumulated carbon deposits in combustion chambers, valves, and piston crowns, restoring engine efficiency.

2

Lower Baseline Efficiency

Older engines operate at lower baseline efficiency, providing more room for improvement compared to optimized modern engines.

3

Cumulative Benefits

Immediate combustion improvement plus gradual carbon cleaning creates compounding efficiency gains over time.

ROI Impact: Older engines typically achieve ROI in 6-12 months due to higher fuel savings, while newer engines achieve ROI in 12-24 months.
