The
Blue Print ABS Sensor (ADK87105) is a key component in modern braking systems. It measures wheel speed and sends signals to the ECU to prevent wheel lockup during hard braking. This sensor is used in various vehicle types, including passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs. The technical benefits of this sensor include improved safety through enhanced traction control, reduced stopping distances, and minimized wear on brake components. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions.
ABS sensors are electromagnetic devices that monitor wheel rotational speed and report this data to the vehicle’s ABS control module. Typically mounted near each wheel hub and brake rotor, they utilize a toothed reluctor ring or magnetic encoder to generate an AC voltage signal proportional to wheel speed. Sensor output is critical for ABS, traction control, and electronic stability control system functionality, enabling precise determination of wheel slip and imminent lockup. These sensors are commonly inductive, Hall-effect, or magnetoresistive, each offering varying sensitivity and temperature range characteristics. Signal integrity is maintained through shielded wiring and robust mounting to minimize interference and ensure accurate readings.
