  3. D+ Simulator

D+ SIMULATOR Pro

product features

  • Low internal power consumption
  • Suitable for 12 V and 24 V systems
  • Adjustable switch-off delay
  • Display of the device status via
  • Three-colour LED
  • Adjustable, additional voltage monitoring
In newer vehicles (Euro 6), voltage-controlled simulation of the D+ signal is often no longer possible due to the energy-optimised alternator controls. The VOTRONIC D+ Simulator PRO works independently of the alternator’s charging mode, as it generates the signal by recognising the vibrations of the running engine. It is therefore suitable for all vehicle types of all model years. To bridge start-stop phases (e.g. at traffic lights) or during stop-and-go (e.g. in traffic jams), the device has an adjustable switch-off delay. In addition, a built-in charging voltage monitor prevents unintentional activation in the event of external vibrations, e.g. during ferry journeys.

D+ SIMULATOR

If additional consumers are only to be switched on when the engine is running (the alternator supplies current) or if the on-board battery is to be optimally charged during the journey via a charging converter, then the D+ contact of the alternator is usually used for control.

However, this contact is often not accessible in the vehicle or is no longer present in newer alternators, which is where the VOTRONIC D+ simulator comes in. It generates a voltage-controlled signal (e.g. from the starter battery) for a (cut-off) relay or a charging converter. Other possible applications include the control of additional consumers that should only be activated when the battery is sufficiently charged, e.g. switching on an air conditioning system while driving or switching a refrigerator, cooling or heating box to 12 V on-board operation.

Note: The voltage-controlled D+ Simulator (item no. 3066) is not suitable for many vehicles according to the Euro 6 standard (see D+ Simulator Pro item no. 3067).

Charging technology at the highest level

The battery is the central element of a vehicle’s electrical system. It requires the greatest attention, maintenance and care and, above all, it must be charged correctly.
