Abstract
A fuel injection system of an internal combustion engine includes: an injector having a hydraulic control chamber controlling the delivery of fuel through the injector, an actively controlled first valve system controlling the pressure relief from the control chamber, movable between: a first position in which the first valve system closes the injector by deterring the pressure from being relieved from the control chamber through the first relief circuit, and a second position in which the first valve system opens the injector by allowing the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the first relief circuit. A second relief circuit allows the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the second relief circuit. The second relief circuit includes a second valve system passively controlled by the fuel pressure and movable between two positions deterring or allowing the pressure to be relieved from the control chamber through the second relief circuit.
