Product Description

Modular Engine Management "Common Rail"

This engine management system provides trainees with all the necessary components (engine control unit, sensors, actuators, power supply) for modular assembly and configuration. This means that the complexity of the system can be adapted to need and an in-depth understanding can be gained of communication between individual sensors or actuators and the engine control unit, considering input, processing and output as a basic principle.

To ensure the perfect symbiosis between theory and practice, all the modules have genuine, fully functioning components wherever possible. These are then complemented with realistic drawings. To further enhance the practical aspect and make it true to life, each module has a simulation mode and an authentic mode, such that it is possible to measure the actual air-flow by mass using the authentic flow meter. In addition, the response of the entire system can be analysed when plugs and connecting leads are removed. The on-board diagnostic (OBD) connector on the control unit allows previously activated simulated faults to be read out.

The safety measurement sockets and the "all-in-one" measuring apparatus offer students multiple options for carrying out measurements on the training system. The accompanying course software provides not only the extensive interactive and theoretical content but also the necessary virtual instruments to convert your own Windows device into a powerful, multi-functional measurement platform (voltmeters, oscilloscope) with the simultaneous capability to document the results of measurements

To meet the requirements for such training systems, the individual modules are provided with short-circuit protection so that they have the suitable resilience to faulty operation.


Basic Equipment Set, Consisting of...

 

Programmable Engine Control Unit


The core of the "Modular engine management system" is the engine control unit which can be programmed as needed. It has its own modifications for educational purposes which are perfect for showing how the controller receives input, processes it and outputs the appropriate signals. All the control unit's pins are connected to sockets on the neatly laid out front panel so that measurements can be made on them directly. Thanks to the colour-coding of the 4-mm safety sockets, it is easy to identify the actual function of each of the pins (sensors, actuators, power, ground) at a glance. The control unit also proves to be multi-talented in the area of diagnostics. It is possible to use the fault switches or the OBD socket to read out standard P0 codes but also to monitor real-time data and modifications with the help of the Ethernet port and matching software. This enables you to cover the telecommunications topics of how Ethernet and IP are used in vehicles

Power Supply


Power Supply, 13.5 V, 45 A


The "Power supply" module is part of ´various training systems including the "Modular engine management" system. It provides power to various components in a similar to the way they are supplied in practice in a real engine by means of a 12 V battery. The module employs a 600 watt power unit which can supply a maximum current of 45 A at 13.5 V between its screw terminals. To protect the training system, a maximum current of 30 A can be tapped via the 4-mm safety sockets. This protective function is implemented by electronic monitoring of the 4mm safety sockets. Thanks to the high-resolution printing on the front panel, the module can immediately be identified as a typical car battery.

Interactive Lab Assistant: Common Rail (Modular)


The "Common rail" ILA course in conjunction with the "Modular engine management: Common Rail" training system together represent the perfect symbiosis of theory and practice. Their cogent and logical design immediately encourages the natural interest of trainees and enables them to understand the complexity of engine management systems without difficulty. This is aided by numerous animations for which an entire common rail engine was digitally rendered. It gives students the opportunity to discover the purpose and working principles of sensors and actuators from a completely new perspective.

Working with the hardware and how to carry out the many experiments are also explained in the course using interactive methods. This strictly minimises the time needed to prepare experiments, in particular because all the measuring instruments (e.g. oscilloscope and voltmeters) are already integrated into the course. This gives students more time to concentrate on the key aspects and perceptibly improves their own efficiency. Thanks to the careful selection of theoretical content, all the key aspects of theory which are essential to understanding and to diagnostic expertise are covered.

To round off the package as a whole, the course also provides tests specific to each section of the course structure and determines the knowledge possessed by each individual student. This gives teachers, and the students themselves, constant feedback on the current progress.
