  2. Wheel speed sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_speed_sensor

    The most common wheel speed sensor system consists of a ferromagnetic toothed reluctor ring and a sensor (which can be passive or active). The tone wheel is typically made of steel and may be an open-air design, or sealed (as in the case of unitized bearing assemblies). The number of teeth is chosen as a trade-off between low-speed sensing ...

  3. Yanmar 2GM20 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yanmar_2GM20

    A Yanmar 2GM20 marine diesel engine, installed in a sailboat. The center pulley is the crankshaft, the lower left one the seawater pump, the upper right one the alternator. The Yanmar 2GM20 is a series of inboard marine diesel engines manufactured by the Japanese company Yanmar Co. Ltd. It is used in a wide range of sailboats and motorboats.

  4. Tachograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachograph

    A tachograph system comprises a sender unit mounted to the vehicle gearbox, the tachograph head and a recording medium. Tachograph heads are of either analogue or digital types. All relevant vehicles manufactured in the EU since 1 May 2006 must be fitted with digital tachograph heads. The recording medium for analogue heads are wax coated paper ...

  5. Tachometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachometer

    A tachometer that can indicate up to 7000 RPM (left) A tachometer (revolution-counter, tach, rev-counter, RPM gauge) is an instrument measuring the rotation speed of a shaft or disk, as in a motor or other machine. [1] The device usually displays the revolutions per minute (RPM) on a calibrated analogue dial, but digital displays are ...

  6. Electronic Diesel Control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Diesel_Control

    These demands are now primarily fulfilled by the Electronic Control, the system which provides greater ability for precise measuring, data processing, operating environment flexibility and analysis to ensure efficient diesel operation. The EDC replaces the mechanical control governor with an electro-magnetic control device.

  7. Variable reluctance sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_reluctance_sensor

    A given VR-sensing system has a definite limit as to how slow the target can move and still develop a usable signal. An alternative but more expensive technology is Hall effect sensor . Hall effect sensors are true zero-rpm sensors and actively supply information even when there's no transmission motion at all.

  8. Tacheometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacheometry

    Diagram of measurements: D is the slant distance; S is the horizontal distance; Δh is the vertical distance. Tacheometry ( / ˌ t æ k i ˈ ɒ m ɪ t r i / ; from Greek for "quick measure") is a system of rapid surveying , by which the horizontal and vertical positions of points on the Earth's surface relative to one another are determined ...

  9. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    Mechanical positions within an electromagnetic system can instead be measured without the Hall effect using optical position encoders (e.g., absolute and incremental encoders) and induced voltage by moving the amount of metalcore inserted into a transformer. When Hall is compared to photo-sensitive methods, it is harder to get an absolute ...
