  • Amplifier 2×3 inches 85 grams
  • GPS positioning
  • Compact battery options available wired for direct connection with DC Inc wiring harnesses
  • Access to ethernet cable- used for PC viewing, device configuration and data downloading from device when logged internally during mobility

Crank trigger options

  • Plex uses toothed trigger wheel patterns of 20,24,36,60,90 and 120 with one (1) or two (2) missing tooth formats / patterns
  • Sensors used are VR (mag) and or Hall effect (powered)
  • Can utilize and share factory crank trigger signals that meet above criteria
  • Encoders 360 or 720

Sensor placement considerations

  • Access to sensor installation
  • Cable routing clearance for wiring from moving shafts, rotating parts, steering, high temperatures
  • Sensor cables can reach amplifier
  • Sensor cables avoid high voltage electronics (IE coils)
  • Sensor installation avoids water passages
  • Sensor installation avoids oil
  • Sensor installation tool passes exterior challenges
  • Sensor location in combustion space

Sensor machining insights

  • Making a cutaway is a nice tool to ensure sensor machining is properly located.
  • Using a CAD model and sensor positioning is a great choice whenever possible.

Determining an angle to machine your sensor in your cutaway

  • Review of water and oil passages
  • Casting thicknesses
  • Areas beyond the casting exterior IE: Head bolts, Exhaust , Chassis constrains
  • Location and intersection into combustion space (50/50 bisection of quench and combustion space)
  • Depth of sensor vs angles effect on sensor passage .080-.125 is ideal

Machining for sensor

  • Setup in mill based on angle required
  • Spot face using center cutting endmill flat .312 (5/16)
  • Center drill .125 diameter with sturdy center drill
  • Form drill to depth (drill is machined for sensor seat face seal)
  • Tap M5 x.5
  • All tools are available from DC Inc
