Voltage Stabilizer for Cars and Motorcycles

 In car accessories shop there a tool that can create an electrical voltage on the car electrical system becomes stable and better. The tool is often called Voltage Stabilizer. There are several brands like Pivot, HKS, and so the price tag is quite expensive.
Generally they can claim to improve vehicle performance (power and torque increases), the light becomes brighter, improving the quality sound system, extend the life of the battery, to be able to save fuel.
To prove that all need special testing, by comparing multiple products from multiple brands, made by dynotest up with a road test route and the same traffic conditions, if necessary in a particular track. In this article, I do not discuss performance verification tool, but for sharing Make Yourself Voltage Stabilizer.

Make Your Own Voltage StabilizerAfter 'googling', finally getting some electronic schematic model Voltage Stabilizer. Components were very similar to those used by earlier well-known brands. There is no harm would also like to make it your own. Once calculated, the price of its components were not more than Rp 75,000, - alone.
For the PCB can make your own (drawn and etching) or using universal PCB. I use a universal PCB because I created just for 1 unit only.
this scheme:

Components are used:


    4 x 3.300uF / 16volt
    4 x 4.700uF / 16volt
    5 x 1.000uF / 16volt
    8 x 4.7uF / 16volt
    1 x 10nF
    1 x LED
    1 x Resistor 1K ohm
    Universal PCB
    Ring terminals 2 sets
    Cables

 Working Principle:
This circuit works as a damper noise voltage, wherein each capacitor to reduce the amount of noise that is different.
That's why some groups of capacitors used with different magnitudes. The smaller the value of its capacitance, the higher the frequency to be suppressed from the electrical system was installed Voltage Stabilizer.
Generally defects / noise voltage comes from the alternator / generator / magneto and ignition system (CDI, etc.), this needs to be improved in order to be a good power quality.
Voltage Stabilizer different functions of the Capacitor Bank is used for car audio systems, Capacitor Bank serves to draw together the voltage source (battery) in order not to drop when there is a big surprise that the sudden from the sound system. (Due to late supply power cable from the battery).

 

 
This layout of components on the PCB top view:

 This diagram looks behind the PCB.If using universal PCB, use a thick enough wire to connect the foot between the components.

 Universal PCB that I use:

 
Because I use a Universal PCB is the PCB for small parts (such as IC), then there are holes to be enlarged so that the capacitor is easy to install.

 
I use PCB drill to enlarge the holes to be installed capacitors.

 Start by soldering the components ..

 
Component mounting and connecting wires are finished ..

 
Components are mounted, looks on.

 TRIALSSeems the unit is to be tested ..

 TEST 1:The first test I use cell phone charger. There are two types of charger is used, Charger with Transformer (thick) and Charger with Switching circuits (thin)

 Charger Transformer (thick) - NO VOLTAGE STABILIZER

 
Charger Transformer (thick) - WITH VOLTAGE STABILIZER
Chart looks to be almost flat, square wave into a gentle curve, like a sine wave.

 Switching Charger (thin) - NO VOLTAGE STABILIZER

 Switching Charger (thin) - WITH VOLTAGE STABILIZER
Almost the same as the charger transformer at the top, above the saw wave could be tempered by Voltage stabilizer.

 TEST 2Motorcycle testing is done on the Injection system (Yamaha V-Ixion - Injection 150 cc 09/2011). In principle, the ECU needs a good power source.

 Yamaha V-Ixion Injection - NO VOLTAGE STABILIZERVoltage spikes seen on standard electricity

 Yamaha V-Ixion Injection - WITH VOLTAGE STABILIZERSeen spikes in electrical voltage standard can be mitigated by Voltage Stabilizer

 TEST 3The next test performed on the car (BMW 528i E39 M52 2800 cc injection 1997)

 Injection BMW 528i - NO VOLTAGE STABILIZERVoltage spikes seen on standard electricity

 BMW 528i Injection - WITH VOLTAGE STABILIZERVoltage spikes seen on standard electrical tempered by Voltage Stabilizer

 Installation on the vehicle (car / motorcycle), directly in parallel with the Aki-

CONCLUSION:


    Voltage Stabilizer able to reduce voltage spikes (spike) the usual 'noise' is generated by the alternator and ignition system.
    Actually at each ECU (engine control unit) in the injection machine, there have been a series of dampers Noise Voltage Stabilizer or voltage to secure the ECU system itself, so the installation of Voltage Stabilizer is not much influence on the ECU.
    Voltage Stabilizer able to reduce the voltage noise that interferes Audio Systems, like the sound of storing, whining, etc..
