Description:
The ZHRO™ Fuel Injector System: Enabling Heavy-Duty Diesel Trucks to Run on Natural Gas.
Phoenix, Arizona-based ZHRO Solutions, LLC ((URL removed)) has developed the ZHRO™ Fuel Injector System (“The ZHRO Injector”), a revolutionary clean-energy system that converts heavy-duty Class-4 through Class-8 diesel trucks to run on compressed natural gas (CNG), or liquefied natural gas (LNG) with no loss of horsepower or torque. And it offers increased efficiency, while maintaining full horsepower and torque performance.
The ground-breaking ZHRO Injector:
✓ Is based on technology that includes 40 years of design, validation testing, and scientific development, and is supported by a myriad of U.S. and international patents.
✓ Consists of CNG fuel injectors and their associated electronic control system, fuel lines, and a CNG storage tank.
✓ Is non-invasive to the engine (a replacement fuel injector and a CNG fuel tank are the primary conversions), and is installed in 6 - 8 hours at "no out-of-pocket cost to the trucker".
✓ Cuts truck fuel costs immediately by 50 - 75%, or up to approximately $80,000 per year, or per 125,000 miles driven.
✓ Reduces toxic emissions (NOx, SOx, particulates) by 90%, making any diesel engine EPA Tier-4 compliant.
✓ Reduces engine wear and reduces the need for oil changes by 75%, thereby extending its useful life.
✓ Includes a warranty replacement policy for existing factory warranties.
✓ Is targeted for commercial introduction in the Q2 of 2014, and full production scale-up by Q3-2014.
