Air Bag Trainer AZA1246

Description

Modern vehicles rely on SRS systems to enhance passenger safety during collisions. The AZA1246 trainer replicates the functionality of a real vehicle airbag system while replacing the physical airbag with a light-based deployment simulator, ensuring safe classroom and workshop operation.

Students can study system architecture, signal flow, sensor inputs, ECU logic, deployment conditions, and fault diagnostics using professional automotive diagnostic tools.

System Design & Construction

The trainer is mounted on a high-strength aluminum frame, providing excellent stability, mobility, and long-term durability. All major SRS components are clearly exposed and labeled, allowing learners to visually trace system operation and wiring connections.

Key system elements include:

• Airbag Control Unit (SRS ECU)

• Impact and crash sensors

• Steering wheel module (removable and reinstallable)

• Seatbelt and safety system interfaces

• Diagnostic connector

• Simulated airbag deployment indicator (light-based)

The circuit layout is permanently printed on the panel surface, allowing easy understanding of signal paths and component relationships.

Functional Capabilities

The AZA1246 demonstrates complete SRS system operation, including:

• System initialization and self-check sequence

• Crash detection logic

• Deployment triggering conditions

• Post-deployment system behavior

• System reset and fault clearing

A simulated traffic accident function allows instructors to demonstrate airbag activation logic in controlled training scenarios.

Diagnostics & Fault Simulation

To support real-world diagnostic training, the system includes:

• OBDII diagnostic socket for connection to automotive scan tools

• OEM DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) readout and clearing

• Live diagnostic interaction with the SRS ECU

A built-in manual fault box with 10 preset faults enables instructors to introduce system errors intentionally. Students can then:

• Identify active faults

• Interpret diagnostic codes

• Perform step-by-step troubleshooting

• Verify system recovery after repair

Additionally, an SRS breakout box with test points allows detailed terminal analysis, voltage checks, and signal tracing using multimeters or oscilloscopes.

Safety-Oriented Design

To ensure safe operation in training environments:

• The physical airbag is replaced by a light-based deployment simulator

• The system operates on 12V DC, derived from a 220V AC input via an internal power supply

• No explosive or pyrotechnic components are used

This design makes the AZA1246 suitable for repeated demonstrations without risk.

Educational Value

The AZA1246 bridges the gap between theory and real automotive systems by allowing students to:

• Understand SRS system architecture

• Learn ECU-based safety logic

• Practice professional diagnostic procedures

• Develop confidence in handling safety-critical systems

It is equally effective for introductory automotive safety training and advanced service technician diagnostics.
