Guardian Pro Features
Dash Controller
The dash control allows the user to shutdown and open the valve from inside the vehicle’s cab or on the equipment. This is a very safe method to quickly and effectively shutdown the engine should it enter into a “runaway state”.
RPM Shutdown
The Valve Control Unit (VCU) allows for each engine to be programmed at a predefined RPM. Once the engine reaches this set RPM (to within 1 RPM), it will activate the Valve to shutdown.
Air Intake Valve Shutoff
The valve is a butterfly design with a silicone o-ring which ensures you get a positive seal every time it is used. We use a motor to control the valve so it is not able to move unless it is instructed to do so by the user.
As well as offering all of the Guardian Basic features, the Guardian Pro model is equipped with more advanced features that provide a wider range of protection.
Air Intake Valve Shutdown, Stop/Run from inside the cab, RPM Shutdown, RPM test, PTO Guard™ Shutdown Mode, Pull to Ground, Event Logging, and Auto Cycling.
Event Logging
The Guardian Pro model offers access to real-time logs of the DTI Guardian Safety System which provide you with ultimate liability protection, ability to check which operators are regularly testing the system, and why the valve has closed. In order to access the logs, you simply connect to the Guardian safety system’s VCU to a laptop, then download the events for the unit’s maintenance and compliance logs.
Auto Cycling
DTI was first to introduce the auto cycle feature to the market. Diesel engines have an increased carbon build up in their intake systems due to the introduction of EGR and DPF systems. The auto cycling feature helps to keep the valve clear of carbon.
Inputs + Outputs
The DTI Guardian System has been designed to receive multiple auxiliary inputs, all of which can be monitored and set to shutdown the system if set levels are reached. Examples of the Inputs and Outputs are: H2S levels, Pressure levels, Vibration levels and Temperature levels. Since these Inputs and Outputs are components added to our Valve system, working with our Engineering team allows building of a custom valve suited to your needs.
