The controller further determines a second injection amount based on the pressure measurement and a resistance of a variable resistor and causes a downstream injector of a downstream dosing module to inject the treatment fluid according to the second injection amount.

Abstract: A controller configured to be operatively coupled to a reductant insertion assembly comprising a first pump for inserting a reductant into a selective catalytic reduction system, is programmed to set an insertion interval timer for the first insertion interval in response to receiving a first insertion command. The controller starts the insertion interval timer, records an elapsed time period from the start of the insertion interval timer, and activates the first pump when the timer starts. The controller receives a second insertion command comprising information for activating the first pump for a second duty cycle for second insertion intervals different than the first insertion interval. If the second insertion interval is smaller than the recorded elapsed time period, the insertion interval timer is set for the second insertion interval, the insertion interval timer is started, and if not already activated, the first pump is activated for the second duty cycle.

Abstract: A controller includes a switching delay circuit structured to determine an open delay time and a close delay time for a reductant injector, each based on battery voltage and reductant injector coil temperature. A dosing circuit is structured to determine an open time that the armature pin must be in the fully open position so as to cause the injector to inject a first quantity of reductant. An actuation time is determined based on each of the open time, the open delay time, and the close delay time. The actuation time relates to a time that the coil must be energized so as to cause the injector to inject the first quantity of reductant. A switching command signal is transmitted to the injector to energize the coil for the calculated actuation time so as to cause the injector to inject the first quantity of reductant into an exhaust gas stream.
