German INTERENG sensors INTERENG models INTERENG prices

INTERENG sensor is a sensor that measures the air flow drawn into the engine. In electronically controlled gasoline injection engines, to obtain the optimal mixture concentration under various operating conditions, it is necessary to accurately measure the amount of air drawn into the engine at every instant, using this as the main basis for the ECU to calculate (control) the fuel injection quantity. If the air flow sensor or its wiring fails, the ECU will not receive the correct intake air signal, preventing normal control of fuel injection, which will cause the mixture to be too rich or too lean, resulting in abnormal engine operation.

INTERENG sensor classification

1) Potentiometric displacement sensors convert mechanical displacement into resistance or voltage output with a linear or arbitrary functional relationship. Ordinary linear potentiometers and rotary potentiometers can be used as linear displacement and angular displacement sensors, respectively. However, potentiometers designed for displacement measurement require a definite relationship between displacement change and resistance change. The movable wiper of the potentiometric displacement sensor is connected to the measured object. The displacement of the object causes a resistance change at the moving end of the potentiometer. The magnitude of the resistance change reflects the magnitude of the displacement, while an increase or decrease in resistance indicates the direction of displacement. Typically, a supply voltage is applied to the potentiometer to convert the resistance change into a voltage output. In wire-wound potentiometers, the resistance changes in steps corresponding to the turn resistance as the wiper moves, resulting in a stepped output characteristic. If such a displacement sensor is used as a displacement feedback element in a servo system, excessive step voltage can cause system oscillation. Therefore, the resistance per turn should be minimized during potentiometer manufacturing. Another major disadvantage of potentiometric sensors is susceptibility to wear. Their advantages include simple structure, large output signal, ease of use, and low cost. 2) Magnetostrictive displacement sensors precisely detect the absolute position of a movable magnetic ring using non-contact measurement technology to determine the actual displacement of the measured product; the high precision and high reliability of these sensors have been widely applied in thousands of practical cases. Since the movable magnetic ring that determines the position does not directly contact the sensitive element, the sensor can be used in extremely harsh industrial environments and is not easily affected by oil stains, solutions, dust, or other contaminants, with an IP protection rating of IP67 or higher. Furthermore, the sensor uses advanced materials and electronic processing technology, allowing it to operate in high-temperature, high-pressure, and high-vibration environments. The sensor output is an absolute displacement value; even if power is interrupted and reconnected, data is not lost, and re-zeroing is not required. Since the sensitive element is non-contact, repeated detection does not cause any wear on the sensor, significantly improving detection reliability and service life. Magnetostrictive displacement sensors accurately measure position by utilizing the magnetostrictive principle, where the intersection of two different magnetic fields generates a strain pulse signal. The measuring element is a waveguide, with the sensitive element inside made of special magnetostrictive material. The measurement process involves generating a current pulse in the sensor's electronics chamber, which travels through the waveguide, creating a circular magnetic field around it. When this magnetic field intersects with the magnetic field generated by the movable magnetic ring sleeved on the waveguide (which changes with position), the magnetostrictive effect produces a strain mechanical wave pulse signal within the waveguide. This strain mechanical wave pulse travels at a fixed speed of sound and is quickly detected by the electronics chamber. Since the transmission time of this strain mechanical wave pulse within the waveguide is proportional to the distance between the movable magnetic ring and the electronics chamber, measuring the time allows for highly precise determination of this distance. Because the output signal is a true absolute value, rather than a proportional or amplified signal, there is no signal drift or value variation, and periodic recalibration is not required. Magnetostrictive displacement sensors are high-precision, long-stroke absolute position displacement sensors manufactured based on the magnetostrictive principle. They employ a non-contact measurement method; since the movable magnetic ring used for measurement does not directly contact the sensor itself, friction and wear are avoided, resulting in long service life, strong environmental adaptability, high reliability, good safety, and ease of system automation. Even in harsh industrial environments, they operate normally. Additionally, they can withstand high temperatures, high pressures, and strong vibrations, and are now widely used in the measurement and control of mechanical displacement.

Widely applicable for level measurement and control of various liquid tanks in the petroleum, chemical, water conservancy, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries, as well as aerospace refueling systems, automotive refueling systems, diesel refueling systems, various hydraulic tanks, hydrological monitoring, and water treatment. Magnetostrictive displacement sensors are high-precision, long-stroke absolute position displacement sensors manufactured based on the magnetostrictive principle.

Additionally, they can withstand high temperatures, high pressures, and strong vibrations, and are now widely used in the measurement and control of mechanical displacement. Their stroke can reach 3 meters or longer, with a nominal accuracy of 0.05% F·S. For sensors with a stroke of 1 meters or more, accuracy can reach 0.02% F, S, and repeatability can reach 0.002% F·S, leading to their widespread application in the petrochemical, aerospace, electric power, and water conservancy industries.
