8.2 Long travel damper D.M.F.
Valeo's Long Travel Damper Dual Mass Flywheel offers
improved acoustic comfort and reduces vibrations.
The L.T.D. D.M.F. significantly reduces perceived
vibrations and engine noise. This represents a major
step forward in powertrain filtration technologies.
This advance is especially important because the
fuel-saving engines now being developed have
higher torque and, consequently, generate greater
vibrations, especially at low speed. The L.T.D. D.M.F.
absorbs torque vibrations generated by the engine
to the transmission, thereby increasing the comfort
of the vehicle's occupants.
Two compact filtration devices give the L.T.D.
D.M.F. the qualities required to become an
essential component in tomorrow's conventional
high-performance engines as well as for hybrid
powertrains, which have the strictest installation
constraints.
