Abstract
An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system module is provided that integrally includes an electric vacuum regulator (EVR) valve and a differential pressure (DP) sensor. The DP sensor measures a differential exhaust pressure at locations upstream and downstream of an orifice in a gasket sealing the EGR system module to an intake manifold. The upstream measurement location is aligned with and particularly spaced from the orifice.
