OVERVIEW
Diesel Tech Industries is a trusted and well established company with close to 20 years in the transport industry technology ELD. Our in-house engineering and real world expertise is backed up by the best customer service. Our mission is rooted in driving innovative technology to the transportation industry, with focus on diesel engine applications.
The Guardian EPASS is an Emergency Positive Air Shutdown System. These systems are essential due to the nature of how diesel engines operate, that is, by the combustion of controlled fuel fed into the engine to control its speed.
In the presence of airborne hydrocarbons, such as those caused by a fuel spill, a running diesel engine will rapidly enter into a “runaway state” by ingesting hydrocarbon vapor.

AIR SHUT OFF VALVE SYSTEMS
Our Guardian EPASS systems offer a solution to this by providing a red led light on the dash control. The operator can visually see the status of the valve and if closed the valve can be easily reset by a push of a button. With traditional shutdown systems operators have no way of determining why their Engine has stopped and once it has stopped, the valve is very difficult to be reset.
Our Guardian EPASS is designed so that the valve will not close unless users want their Engines to shutdown, whether it is by dash control, preset RPM shutdown or by remote.
In our more advanced models, the DTI system records the status of the valve at the time of a shutdown and the butterfly design of the valve prevents the loading of unused fuel into the Engine when activated.
Equipped with “Intel-a-Valve Technology™” the Valve Control Unit (VCU) controller lets the user know the status of the valve through the LED light display and constantly monitors status of the positive air shut off valve system for any faults.
This enables a failure-free performance and makes it the only shutdown valve of its kind on the market.
Plug and Play
Making installation quick and cost-effective compared to other Diesel shutdown systems. All our kits come with everything required to get the install done, including hoses and clamps. All cable links are predetermined so there is no guess work.
Event Logging
Real time event logs that provide a detailed report of all ongoing activity of the Guardian system. This includes emergency shutdowns, daily maintenance cycling, manual shutdowns and more.
Easy Operation
Ease of access to reopen from inside the vehicle instead of the engine compartments. Logs can be accessed by connecting to the Valve Control Unit (VCU) to a compatible device with our software. We provide a 24/7 free phone troubleshooting.
