VE-Type diesel engine trainer (EDE103) features a real operational mechanical injection diesel engine complete with all supplementary systems necessary for its operation including electric system, injection system cooling system , intake & exhaust system and etc. The trainer helps in demonstration VE-Type diesel engine structure, operation and test its performance under normal and faulty conditions. Additionally, the unit is provided with faults insertion switches to simulate 11 most common faults of mechanical injection diesel engine vehicles and enhance trainees faults finding skills.
- The educational unit features a 4-cylinder VE-diesel engine mounted inside a robust chassis.
- The special design of the trainer chassis allows accommodating all petrol engine car systems ,it also allows observing all these systems clearly during operation while ensuring trainees safety at the same time.
- The unit includes all systems required for VE-type diesel engine operation such as:
- Battery
- Electric circuitry
- Fuel reservoir
- ECU (electronic control unit)
- Fuel injection system
- Cooling system
- Intake & exhaust system
- Starter motor and alternator
- RWD manual transmission system
- The trainer is supplied with RWD manual transmission system by defualt.
- The unit comes by default with 1900 CC VE-Type diesel engine.
- The trainer has a large control panel serves as an easy interface between the car systems and the user.
- The control panel includies the following modules for system elements:
- Operation module
- Faults module
- Starter module
- Alternator module
- Oil pressure sensor module
- ECT sensor module
- Fuel level sensor module
- Filter sensor module
- Glow plug module
- Shut-off valve module
- Battery module
- RPM sensor module
- Each component represented in the above modules is provided with dedicated safety sockets internally connected to the real component to allow connecting external measuring devices for examination.
- The operation module includes the following switches & LEDs:
- Ignition switch module
- Emergency switch
- Dash board module
- Using the key in the ignition switch module, the instructor will be able to start the engine exactly as it happens in real cars.
- A real acceleration pedal is integrated into the control panel to allow increasing the engine speed.
- The unit is capable of simulating 11 VE-Type diesel engine system faults using faults insertion switches on the control panel.
- The educational unit is provided with a schematic diagram of the VE-type diesel engine components showing it internal parts.
- Dashboard enables the trainee to observe the car speed and studying its behaviour under acceleration.
- The engine condition is refurbished by default where it has undergone a complete overhaul and has received a paint job.
- The trainer is mounted on four heavy duty caster wheels able to carry the system weight for better mobility.
- Caster wheels are equipped with foot-operated brakes to lock the wheels and help fix the unit and prevent sliding.
