The VOControls controllers offer hands-off driving (except for those on the steering wheel of course) on vegetable oil - great for anyone who's afraid they or their spouse will forget to purge, or the commercial client with multiple drivers - no worrying that they’re forget to purge, or worse, drive around all day on purchased fuel!

Enter the vehicle, wait for the glowplug light to go out, and start the vehicle. No need to flip a switch or push a button: when the coolant's reached whatever temp you've programmed into the computer, the controller will switch to WVO.

Auto purging: Turn off the engine, exit the vehicle, lock the doors, and the engine will continue to run until it's purged. A VW Tdi, with 3 valves (the 3rd valve un-loops the looped return at purge, resulting in quicker purge times) purges in less than 30 seconds.

If the WVO in the tank drops to 17% of capacity then the controller switches to diesel - they'll never suck air while on WVO.

With the optional fuel pressure sender ($169) if the fuel pressure drops below stock, indicating a plugged Vormax or VegMax fuel filter, the controller will default to diesel. No stalling on WVO due to a plugged filter.

It is designed to let you fine tune the control parameters to suit your specific vehicle and conversion system. This tailoring maximizes the amount of VO used while minimizing the time and effort needed to use this environmentally friendly alternative fuel.

Using the controller to intelligently monitor your coolant and VO and adjust accordingly also helps minimize the risk to your engine. After all, it's hard for that radio shack switch to manage a system as complicated as a VO conversion.

Some of the benefits of running the VO Controller include:
  • Support for electric heaters, controlled by VO temperatures you specify.
  • Support for injection line heaters, including automatically preheating your lines before switching to VO.
  • Automatic purge runtime when you leave your vehicle, allowing you to drive all the way into your parking space on VO.
  • Temperature displays for both coolant and vegetable oil.
  • Pressure display for 0-100 PSI
  • Automatic and manual modes
  • Fahrenheit/PSI or Celsius/kPa modes
  • Fifteen user adjustable parameters for maximum flexibility
  • The reliability and peace of mind that comes with design and testing by professionals
  • Extensive (33+ page) documentation for installation and tuning
  • Delayed return valve switching. This innovative benefit reduces diesel fuel sent to your VO tank during the switch from diesel to VO.
  • If automatic purge and shutdown are not enabled, a buzzer reminds you if you forget to purge before shutting down.
  • SmartStart(TM) - If you shut down on VO for a quick stop the controller remembers this and automatically starts up on VO again.
  • USB "Mini-b" connector for laptop connections.
Windows-based software suite that allows:
  • Monitoring of all inputs (temperatures, pressures, voltages, fuel levels, etc.)
  • Monitoring of all outputs (all valves, heaters, and ignition relay.)
  • Graphing fuel pressure and fuel and coolant temperatures.
  • Coming soon: Saving and loading datalogs, on-the-fly firmware upgrades and a gauge display.
Included with the Premium Kit:
  • Attractive handheld user interface keypad with four line blue/white LCD display and four buttons for interaction.
  • Shows fuel and heater states (Diesel, VO, Manual, Auto, etc.)
  • VO fuel level display (calibrated for a standard marine fuel level sender)
  • Temperature and pressure displays.
  • Voltage display.
  • Easy access to the menu system to modify adjustable paramters.
  • Cat5E shielded cable for connection to the ECU.
  • USB "Mini-b" connector on the keypad for easy laptop connections.
  • USB "Mini-b" cable.
  • Three premium relays and wiring harnesses for various circuits.
  • Brass fittings and hose clamps for installing fuel and coolant temperature sensors.
  • Printed and bound manual.
All VO Controllers include various supporting items, including:
  • Color-coded wiring and connectors
  • Two temperature sensors and wiring harnesses
  • Precision screwdriver set
All VO Controllers are packed with 100% recycled peanuts and/or biodegradable corn starch peanuts.

NOTE: Requires the use of 2 or 3 3-port valves (see the Valves section of the store on the left side of this page.) Cannot be used with a single 6-port valve. To see more about the VOControl controller and to dowload the owner's manual/installation guide in PDF format, click HERE
