    TASK TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS


    “Knocking” occurs when the air-fuel mixture self ignites prematurely.
    Sustained knocking combustion causes damage primarily to the Characteristics linear over a large
    cylinder head gasket and cylinder head. The risk of knocking can be frequency ­range
    reduced by moving the ignition point toward “late”. The aim is to
    Operating temperature −40 °C to +160 °C
    obtain the maximum energy yield from any fuel quality by starting
    range
    ignition as early as possible. Engines with knock control can achieve
    up to 9 % fuel savings and 5 % torque increase. Technology piezoelectric measuring element
    (ring-shaped piezo ceramic)
    FUNCTION Type direct connector or cable type
    The knock sensor is mounted on the crankcase and measures the
    structure-borne noise using a piezoelectric measuring element.
    Knocking is discernible by its higher sound frequencies.
