<p>A system for protecting the catalytic exhaust gas combustion devices (15) of an automotive engine (1) featuring two sets of cylinders, which system comprises, for each set of cylinders: a first sensor (25) housed in the exhaust pipe (3) downstream from the catalytic combustion device (15) and designed to supply a first signal (35) as a function of the temperature of the combustion device (15); a comparing block (30) for supplying a second signal (ST) upon the first signal (35) reaching a threshold value indicating a predetermined temperature of the combustion device (15); and a central processing unit (36) of an electronic fuel injection system (16), designed to cut off fuel supply to the injectors (31) of the aforementioned set of cylinders as a function of the aforementioned second signal (ST).</p> |
