Sensors for Engine Management
Sensing and forwarding information
Sensors can help cut fuel consumption and harmful emissions. They play a part in boosting engine efficiency and vehicle safety to ensure greater driving comfort and enjoyment.
To fulfill the task of capturing and transmitting data, sensors need to be resistant to temperature, moisture, dirt and chemicals. They also need to function perfectly within electromagnetic fields and in the presence of other sensors, in addition to offering a long service life.
Mass Airflow Sensors
Mass airflow sensors are positioned directly after the air filter in the intake manifold and supply information on temperature, humidity and intake air volume.more
Camshaft Sensors
The camshaft sensor is located in the cylinder head and reads the camshaft sprocket to determine the position of the camshaft.more
Knock Sensors
Knock sensors reliably measure the vibration of the engine block that is characteristic of engine knocking.more
Wheel Speed Sensors
The wheel speed signal is crucial for electronic systems like ABS or ASC. more
Crankshaft Sensors
The crankshaft sensor supplies information on the crankshaft’s current position, which the engine management system can then use to calculate rpm.more
Pressure Sensors
MAP and T-MAP sensors measure the air pressure in the intake manifold behind the throttle valve to determine air intake.more
