Why Calibration is Critical<\/h2>\n

Different types of actuators, such as those for turbochargers <\/span>HE400<\/strong> <\/span>and <\/span>HE500<\/strong> <\/span>VGT applications for VOLVO\/DAF<\/strong>, require a <\/span>dedicated configuration<\/strong>. In these situations, the <\/span>standard flushing tools<\/strong> <\/span>are not always suitable for calibration. Often, these tools: <\/p>\n

    \n
  • Do not support the advanced protocols required by modern actuators;<\/li>\n
  • Do not allow the necessary reference parameters to be set;<\/li>\n
  • Do not perform guided calibration sequences;<\/li>\n
  • Do not read or reset stored information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In essence, while useful for basic checks, these tools are not always capable of bringing an actuator to the required operating configurations.<\/strong><\/p>\n
