Product type
Speed sensors are electronic devices used to measure the rotational speed of a vehicle's wheels or engine components. They typically consist of a magnet and a coil, which generate a voltage signal in response to the rotation of a toothed wheel or gear. This signal is then transmitted to the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU) for processing. Speed sensors are crucial for various automotive functions, including speedometer readings, anti-lock braking systems (ABS), and traction control systems.
| Type | Magnetic, Hall effect, or Optical |
| Operating temperature range | -40┬░C to 125┬░C |
| Output signal | Analog or digital |
| Supply voltage | 5V to 12V DC |
| Connector type | Varies by application, typically automotive-grade connectors |
When selecting a speed sensor, consider the specific application requirements, including the type of sensor needed (magnetic, Hall effect, or optical) and the operating temperature range. It's essential to specify the output signal type, as well as the supply voltage to ensure compatibility with the vehicle's electronic systems. Additionally, check for any necessary certifications for automotive components and the required connector type for installation. Quantities may vary based on the scale of the project or replacement needs.
