Where is the camshaft sensor located?
1 Answers
The camshaft signal wheel is generally installed at the front end of the camshaft, and the camshaft phase sensor must face the signal wheel to collect signals. Therefore, the camshaft phase sensor is usually installed at the front end of the camshaft cover, facing the front end of the intake and exhaust camshafts. Additional information is as follows: 1. Prominent advantages of magnetic induction sensors: The prominent advantage of magnetic induction sensors is that they do not require an external power supply. The permanent magnet serves to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and its magnetic energy is not lost. When the engine speed changes, the speed of the rotor teeth rotation will change, and the rate of magnetic flux change in the iron core will also change accordingly. The higher the speed, the greater the rate of magnetic flux change, and the higher the induced electromotive force in the sensing coil. 2. Operation of the crankshaft position sensor: When the crankshaft position sensor rotates with the crankshaft, according to the working principle of the magnetic induction sensor, each time the signal rotor passes a tooth, the sensing coil generates a periodic alternating electromotive force (i.e., the electromotive force reaches a maximum and a minimum once), and the coil correspondingly outputs an alternating voltage signal.
