Magnetic speed sensor is a device that detects the presence of a magnetic element near the sensor’s end.
This device is ideal for all types of vehicles. It is a universal and highly precise device. It can work with a large number of magnetic elements, which translates into high calibration precision.
The magnetic speed sensor is the device you need.
The device detects the presence of a magnetic element near the sensor’s end. The sensor is mounted near an element that reflects vehicle movement. Most often, it is mounted near the wheel hub, detecting the movement of a magnetic element placed on the rotating hub. It can also be mounted near the driveshaft, detecting the movement of an additional magnetic element attached to the shaft. Due to its long operating distance, you may attempt to mount the sensor to detect magnetic elements placed on the wheel rim. Each approach of a magnetic element to the sensor’s end is detected by the sensor, which then transmits an electrical pulse to the trip meter.
This sensor is compatible with all iTrip trip meters.
Advantages of the magnetic sensor
- Easy installation
- Ability to work with a large number of magnetic elements
The magnetic sensor detects
- Any type of magnet
- Dedicated magnetic elements, e.g., universal magnetic studs or rings designed for a specific vehicle type (see compatible elements)
The iTrip speed sensor is a functional device that ensures maximum accuracy.
Limitations of the magnetic sensor
- Large number of metal elements near magnet mounting points
Application examples
- Magnetic sensor mounted in the wheel hub, working with magnetic studs
