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.
