Description
The ConsuLab EM-330-1 Fuel Injection and Engine Management Trainer functions as in a real automobile, but uses non-flammable fluid instead of gasoline for safety and educational purposes. The trainer is used to teach and demonstrate engine management systems in a vehicle.
The advantage to the trainer comes in the fact that it produces no exhaust, will fit through virtually any doorway, has adjustable inputs and is the actual system used on the vehicle. The VIN on the front faceplate of the trainer contains the actual VIN of the vehicle that all components came from. The adjustable sensor inputs greatly improve the instructors ability to have students understand cause and effect. As the student changes the input, which can be observed using DMM, Scanner or DSO, the result of the change can also be observed. These are beneficial during certain labs which will highlight cause and effect. For example, the 330 can easily show how the fuel injector on time will change with engine temperature changes just by monitoring the pulse width on either a scanner or by viewing the injector pattern on a DSO. This is the greatest plus in the trainer. Students can change the inputs and watch a DMM, scanner or DSO change the output. The EM-330-1 comes with a comprehensive manual with extensive labs that will use a DMM, a scanner or a DSO.
Educational Advantages

- Introduce scanner operation
- Supply information that utilizes a DSO
- Teach pattern analysis – both voltage and current
- Look at fuel and ignition strategies
- Teach fuel delivery operation including fuel pump speed calculation
- Teach fuel injection operation
- Teach ignition operation
- Teach the input vs output concept so important for a student/technician to understand.
