Crankshaft Position Sensor

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor:

The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is a variable reluctance sensor which will respond to a rotating actuator positioned on the crankshaft. The actuator is a 60-2 tooth steel disk with 58 evenly spaced teeth and a minus 2 tooth slot. The sensor will produce a sine wave for each tooth edge of the actuator. The sensor's output is required to determine crankshaft speed, position and acceleration.
