Electronic control has transformed heavy vehicle suspension systems by combining sensors, electronic controls, and pneumatics to manage vehicle ride height. The Electronically Controlled Air Suspension Trainer (777-01) from LJ Create gives students access to a fully operational Electronically Controlled Air Suspension (ECAS) system, built with original components and based on a DAF ECAS III 4×2 truck.
Mounted on a self-contained steel frame and base plate with casters, this heavy-vehicle air suspension training system brings major ECAS components together in an accessible learning environment. Students can work with an air reservoir tank, electro-pneumatic components, ECAS ECU, height sensor, and remote control pad while developing familiarity with the interaction between pneumatic and electronic suspension controls.
Features
- Fully operational ECAS system demonstrates electronically controlled air suspension technology.
- Original system components provide experience with authentic heavy vehicle suspension hardware.
- DAF ECAS III 4×2 truck-based system connects training to a real commercial vehicle application.
- ECAS ECU and height sensor demonstrate electronic suspension monitoring and control.
- Electro-pneumatic components illustrate the interaction between electrical and pneumatic technologies.
- Remote control pad provides access to system control functions.
- The self-contained mobile frame creates an accessible training platform for automotive and heavy vehicle programs.
