PI 054 Vito 120 CDi: Specification information
First issued: 3 March 2006 Initial information
Revised: 10 May 2006
The Vito 120CDi.
The OM642 six-cylinder diesel engine with common-rail direct injection (CDI) and fuel preheating.
An inlet-metered high pressure pump sends fuel to the high-pressure accumulator (fuel rail), where pressure of up to 1600 bar are developed. The electromagnetically controlled injectors inject the fuel directly into the combustion chamber. Due to the very high injection pressures, this system ensures excellent mixture formation, while the electronic management allows good adaptation of injection timing and quantity to current operating and driving conditions.
Multi-stage injection and a multi-stage turbo charger reduce noise and emissions and improve fuel consumption. High flexibility is provided from just 1800 rpm to 2400rpm.

§ High-torque 6-cylinder engine
