tachszenzor

A tachometer sensor, commonly referred to as a tachszenzor, is a device used to measure the rotational speed of an engine or other rotating machinery. It is a crucial component in various applications, including automotive engines, industrial machinery, and aerospace systems. The sensor typically consists of a magnetic wheel or a toothed wheel that rotates with the shaft of the machinery, and a pickup coil or Hall effect sensor that detects the passing of the teeth or magnetic poles.

The tachszenzor generates an electrical signal proportional to the rotational speed, which is then processed by the control system to monitor and regulate the operation of the machinery. In automotive engines, the tachometer sensor is used to display the engine's revolutions per minute (RPM) on the dashboard and to provide feedback to the engine control unit (ECU) for fuel injection and ignition timing.

The accuracy and reliability of the tachszenzor are essential for the proper functioning of the machinery. Regular maintenance and calibration are necessary to ensure the sensor's performance over time. In some cases, the tachszenzor may be integrated with other sensors, such as the crankshaft position sensor, to provide additional information about the engine's operation.
