0501337898 ZF SPEED SENSOR

A Vehicle Speed Sensor is an essential part of modern vehicles' brake controls. This sensor is primarily used in passenger cars and commercial vehicles to measure the rotational speed of wheels or axles. The technical benefits include improved safety through prevention of wheel lockup during hard braking, thanks to its accurate detection of vehicle speed. Additionally, it enables reliable performance of anti-lock braking systems (ABS) and traction control systems (TCS). The ZF Vehicle Speed Sensor is a product from Germany. 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.
