Active sensors

SpecificationsSystem detailsThe adoption of active sensors offers the following advantages:- less sensitivity to the distance between the sensor and the magnetic ring (gap)- a reduction in sensitivity to electro-magnetic interference- the capacity of the active sensor to measure wheel rpm speeds down to zero (instead of 2.5 km/h for passive sensors)- a saving in weight and size- a simplification of the transmission couplings through the elimination of phonic wheels.CompositionStructureActive sensors consist of two fundamental components:- a multipolar magnetic coding device (1) built into the wheel hub bearing (complete with controls)- a (magnetic-resistive) receiver (2) facing the codifier.FRONT SENSOR
REAR SENSOR
OperationThe active sensor functions on the basis of variation in the internal electrical resistance, according to the intensity and direction of the lines of force of an external magnetic field (multipolar magnetic coding device). It produces a variable square wave signal whose frequency varies according to the rotation speed of the wheel, but has a constant amplitude.The active sensor is therefore a proximity sensor with built-in electronic system, connected by means of a cable to the ABS control unit, from which it receives an electrical supply and to which it transmits the speed of the vehicle.The phonic wheel is a multipolar ring, an elastomer with a certain number of magnetic particles which are lined up using a special magnetisation technique to form several magnets with alternate North or South polarity in a circumferential direction.
