THE SAFARI ARMAX ‘Z SERIES’ ENGINE CONTROL UNIT (ECU) IS DESIGNED TO WORK HARMONIOUSLY WITH YOUR VEHICLES OE ENGINE CONTROL UNIT RESULTING IN MORE POWER, MORE TORQUE, BETTER THROTTLE RESPONSE, LESS FUEL CONSUMPTION AND LESS TURBO LAG. THIS IS ALL BACKED UP BY SAFARI’S SOPHISTICATED ENGINE PROTECTION SYSTEMS WHICH ARE CONSTANTLY LIVE MONITORING YOUR VEHICLE FOR TOTAL DRIVETRAIN SAFETY AND ULTIMATE RELIABILITY. THE ARMAX ‘Z SERIES’ ECU HAS 3 PRE-CALIBRATED MAPS FOR ALL USER CONDITIONS.
THE PLUG AND PLAY WIRING HARNESS MAKES INSTALLATION QUICK AND EASY AND VEHICLE SPECIFIC MOUNTING BRACKETRY COMPLEMENTS THE INSTALLATION.
THE SAFARI ARMAX ‘Z SERIES’ ECU IS THE TOTAL PACKAGE, NO UPGRADES REQUIRED. IT IS A TOTAL SYSTEM SOLUTION SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR YOUR 4X4 VEHICLE.
THE ARMAX ECU INCREASES THE OPEN DURATION AND THE INJECTION TIMING POINT OF THE FUEL INJECTOR, ALLOWING MORE DIESEL FUEL TO ENTER THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER. DUE TO THE INCREASE IN FUEL, THE BOOST PRESSURE THE ENGINE RECEIVES FROM THE TURBOCHARGER IS INCREASED, OPTIMIZING THE AIR FUEL RATIO. THE RESULT IS INCREASED ENGINE POWER, TORQUE, AND BETTER THROTTLE RESPONSE.
THE ARMAX ECU DELIVERS A STRONG YET VERY SMOOTH POWER ENHANCEMENT, AS THE DRIVER DEMANDS MORE POWER THE ECU DELIVERS MORE POWER.
• TEMPERATURE CONTROL: EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE (EGT), IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR TO THE LONG-TERM LIFE OF YOUR INTERNAL COMBUSTION DIESEL ENGINE. IF EGT VALUES INCREASE TO DANGEROUS LEVELS THEN ENGINE FAILURE IS IMMINENT. THAT IS WHY THE ARMAX ECU UTILIZES A CLOSED LOOP SENSOR FEEDBACK SYSTEM TO CONSTANTLY MONITOR THE VEHICLES EXHAUST GAS TEMPERATURE ALLOWING FOR INSTANT RESPONSE.
WHEN ABNORMALLY HIGH EGT VALUES ARE REPORTED BY THE EGT SENSOR, MOUNTED IN THE VEHICLES EXHAUST SYSTEM, THE ECU DECREASES THE AMOUNT OF FUEL INJECTED INTO THE ENGINE. THIS REDUCTION ALLOWS THE EGT TO RETURN TO SAFE OPERATING LEVELS REDUCING LOAD ON THE ENGINE.
ONCE THIS HAS OCCURRED THE ECU WILL THEN GRADUALLY INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF FUEL INJECTED, ALLOWING THE ENGINE TO RETURN TO FULL POWER IN A CONTROLLED MANOR.
• MAP SELECTION: THE SAFARI ‘Z SERIES’ ARMAX ENGINE CONTROL UNIT (ECU) HAS AN INTEGRATED MAP SELECTION SWITCH. THE MAP SELECTION SWITCH IS LOCATED ON THE HOUSING OF THE ECU UNIT WHICH IS EASILY ACCESSIBLE TO THE DRIVER FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT OF YOUR VEHICLE.
THE PRESS OF A BUTTON CHANGES YOUR VEHICLES DRIVING CHARACTERISTICS BETWEEN 3 DIFFERENT MODES (MAPS).
1.SPORT – ENHANCED THROTTLE RESPONSE WITH STRONG POWER AND TORQUE DELIVERY.
2.COMFORT – PROGRESSIVE POWER AND TORQUE DELIVERY, GREAT FOR EVERYDAY DRIVING.
3. TOWING – WITH AN EMPHASIS ON LOW END TORQUE AND REDUCED TOP END POWER TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE WHILST TOWING EXTRA WEIGHT AT EASE.
• CALIBRATION FILES: SAFARI 4X4 ENGINEERING HAVE AN EXTENSIVE LIBRARY OF CALIBRATION FILES (TUNING MAPS) TO SUIT STANDARD VEHICLES AS WELL AS MULTIPLE COMBINATIONS OF POPULAR VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS. THESE INCLUDE ITEMS SUCH AS SNORKELS, INTERCOOLERS AND EXHAUST SYSTEMS. IT IS CRITICAL THAT THE CORRECT CALIBRATION FILE FOR YOUR VEHICLE IS INSTALLED TO ENSURE THE MAXIMUM POWER LEVEL IS ACHIEVED RELIABLY.
• WIRING HARNESS: EACH ARMAX ECU APPLICATION HAS A VEHICLE SPECIFIC WIRING HARNESS TO ENSURE A PRECISE FIT WHICH IS TAILORED TO EACH VEHICLE, IT IS NECESSARY TO ROUTE THE HARNESS THROUGH THE VEHICLE IN A SPECIFIC WAY, SO THAT THE HARNESS IS NOT SUBJECT TO ABNORMAL VIBRATION, HEAT, MOVEMENT AND INTERFERENCE. THIS IS VITAL TO ENSURE THE WIRING LOOM LASTS THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.
EVERY CONNECTOR FITTED TO THE WIRING HARNESS IS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY, FULLY SEALED AND WATERPROOF, THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS. SAFARI USES GOLD PLATED TERMINALS AT EACH CONNECTION POINT ON THE HARNESS.
THE INTERNAL WIRES HAVE A DUAL LAYER OF EXTERNAL PROTECTION THE SAME AS HIGH QUALITY OE WIRING HARNESSES, THE HARNESS BREAKOUT POINTS ARE CLEARLY LABELLED.
THE SAFARI ARMAX WIRING HARNESS IS A TRUE ‘PLUG AND PLAY’ SOLUTION THAT REQUIRES NO CUTTING OR SOLDERING INTO THE VEHICLES ORIGINAL WIRING HARNESS, IT CAN BE REMOVED, AND THE VEHICLE CAN BE RETURNED TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM WITHOUT ANY TRACE.
• MOUNTING BRACKETRY: THE SAFARI ARMAX ECU MOUNTING BRACKETRY WHICH SUPPORTS THE UNIT IS LASER CUT AND FOLDED 3MM PLAIN CARBON STEEL, ALL BRACKETS ARE THEN ZINC PLATED AND POWDER COATED. THIS DUAL LAYER OFFERS SUPERIOR CORROSION RESISTANCE WITH GREAT AESTHETIC APPEAL. ALL MOUNTING HARDWARE IS HIGH GRADE STAINLESS STEEL AND UTILIZES EXISTING FACTORY MOUNTING POINTS.
ALL COMPONENTS IN THE DESIGN PHASE WERE CAD MODELLED TO ENSURE A PERFECT FIT FIRST TIME BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY ANALYZED TO ENSURE THEY WOULD SURVIVE THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS FITTING WITH COMMONLY USED AFTERMARKET ACCESSORIES SUCH AS SECONDARY FUEL FILTERS, ENGINE CATCH CANS, AUXILIARY BATTERIES AND AIR COMPRESSORS.
• DUAL ULTRA HIGH SPEED PROCESSORS: THE DUAL ULTRA-HIGH SPEED PROCESSORS REFERENCE THE DATA RECEIVED FROM THE ENGINE AGAINST THE CALIBRATED, INTERNALLY STORED TABLES, THEN USE THIS INFORMATION TO CONSTANTLY ADJUST THE ENGINE INJECTORS? OPEN DURATION VIA THE ARMAX ECU’S INTERNAL INJECTOR DRIVERS.
• GLASS-FIBRE REINFORCED HOUSING: THE NEWLY DEVELOPED GLASS-FIBRE REINFORCED HOUSING MEETS ALL 4X4 USERS REQUIREMENTS FOR A ROBUST, LONG LASTING PRODUCT CAPABLE OF EXTENDED OPERATION AND SUITABLE FOR USE OVER A WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE OF EXTREME OPERATING CONDITIONS. THE ASSEMBLY BENEFITS FROM THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN SHOCK ABSORBING TECHNOLOGY, TOGETHER WITH COMPLETE SEALING AGAINST THE TYPICAL AUSTRALIAN 4X4 ENVIRONMENT.
• GERMAN MADE PCB: THE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD IS MANUFACTURED IN GERMANY TO SAFARI’S SPECIFICATION. IT IS ASSEMBLED TO GERMAN OEM QUALITY STANDARDS BY A GERMAN OEM SUPPLIER.
• HEAT RESISTANT CIRCUITRY: THE FULL SURFACE MOUNT PROCESS WITH EPOXY RESIN COATING ENSURES A PARTICULARLY HIGH LEVEL OF COMPONENT DURABILITY. INTELLIGENT THERMAL MANAGEMENT OF COMPONENT LAYOUT ENSURES LONG TERM DURABILITY AND LOW CHIP/ INJECTOR DRIVER TEMPERATURES BY OPTIMISING HEAT DISSIPATION CHARACTERISTICS.
• WARRANTY: ADDING TO YOUR PEACE OF MIND IS SAFARI 4X4 ENGINEERING’S WARRANTY PROGRAM, OFFERING AN UNLIMITED KILOMETRE 3-YEAR WARRANTY ON ALL COMPONENTS. THIS IS ALSO BACKED UP BY AN INDUSTRY LEADING VEHICLE DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY.
