Developed from the original Piranha system, Newtronic ignitions are contact breaker replacement ignition systems covering a range of Japanese and European motorcycles from the late 1950's onwards. Using contactless, maintenance free, infra red triggering the Newtronic ignition has gained a reputation for ease of installation and effectiveness from satisfied motorcyclists around the World. The switching units include an integrated timing LED for each channel, making it quick and easy to accurately time each cylinder independently (an essential step in gaining the best performance from your engine.). The system typically consists of three main components:
- An ADAPTOR plate which mounts the lamps supplying the beam of infra-red light. This is broken by the ROTOR as it rotates on the engine cam or crankshaft. When a beam of light is re-made as the rotor blade clears the beam the switching unit is instructed to fire the coil (please note some systems will have separate mounting plates for each lamp and will not be assembled on a single plate as shown.)
In many kits these are supplied as 1 lamp per cylinder. Other kits use a wasted spark system with 1 lamp firing 2 cylinders.
The adapter kit also includes the parts needed to fit the lamps around the motorcycle cam or crankshaft - usually supplied as a base plate and /or segment plates with pre-mounted lamps.
- A ROTOR which fits on the bike cam or crankshaft and makes and breaks the lamps infrared beam when the coil is to be fired. The rotor may be made of metal or a heat and solvent resistant plastic.
- A SWITCHING UNIT which collects coil firing instructions from the rotor traversing through the lamps and fires the coil. The switching units are supplied positive or negative earth depending on the bike configuration and have a separate switching channel for each lamp in the Adaptation Kit. 12V and 6V versions are also available especially for earlier bikes.
The switching unit has an integral timing light for each coil and is fully compatible with existing systems to the older design. It is also a direct replacement for Piranha switching units.
- An INSTALLATION WIRING LOOM is supplied with each kit, tailored
to the original bike loom dimensions, connectors and wire colours for a quick, easy and professional looking installation.
