Description
Ref.: 9EQ305AA6C – 230 V
Ref.: 9EQ305AA3C – 115 V
Equipment conceived to study different actuators, depending on technologies, types of regulation and means of control used in the different systems which can be found at present in a vehicle. These actuators are controlled from the electronic control unit ECU based on control algorithms programmed on the unit, which are responsible for making the system respond to the variation required for the behaviour of the vehicle. The equipment has 10 actuators, similar to the ones in use at present in a car (spark plug, injector, step motor, canister valve, etc.), through which, and thanks to the combination of different technologies they use and of the different means of control, they allow a high number of vehicle actuators to be studied. Some of the equipment actuators can be controlled from application UCE ADA304, and can together with the ADA303 sensor equipment form a complete control system.
