Cam sensor

Knock sensor

3 Cam sensor:

The cam sensor is fitted on the timing gear cover

front. The position sensor is a magnetic field

sensitive transducer and generates a voltage output

proportional to the rate of change of the magnetic

field near a “sensed target” configuration. The cam

sensor senses the position of the circular slot on the

timing gear and gives you a feed back to the ECU.

The synchronization of cam and crank sensor

indicates 1

st

cylinder piston TDC.

4 Knock sensor (Accelerometer):

The knock sensor is fitted on the cylinder head. The

knock sensor is a mechanical vibration sensitive

transducer that mounts to an engine and generates a

voltage proportional to the mechanical vibration in a

predetermined location. It senses the knocking in the

cylinders during combustion.This sensor is used for

Accelerometer

strategy.It

is a wide brand sensor gives

high output and flat

response.It

has got robust and

environmentally sealed integrated connectors.

5.

Boost Pressure and Temperature Sensor (T-

MAP sensor):

This sensors is fitted on pipe connecting intercooler to

engine intake for measuring air flow pressure and

temperature.

This sensor gives the pressure and temperature of the

air entering the engine after compressed by the

turbocharger.Fuel quantity and injection timing are

optimised based on these inputs
