    Overview

    The magnetic pickup speed sensor is a non-contact variable reluctance speed sensor used to measure the rotational speed of gears, shafts, and other rotating parts. It works by detecting changes in magnetic field as a toothed metal wheel passes the sensor tip, then outputs an AC pulse signal proportional to speed for controllers or monitoring systems. SUCH supplies this sensor as an engine speed sensor for crankshaft speed and position detection, and as a gear speed sensor used in vehicles, construction machinery, and hydraulic pump and motor speed measurement applications.

    Feature

    • Non-contact speed measurement — Measures rotation speed without touching the target, reducing wear and improving service life.
    • Works with gear teeth — Detects metal gear teeth or toothed wheels to generate speed signals.
    • Wide speed range — Supports both low-speed and high-speed rotation from 0 to 20 kHz.
    • Strong environmental resistance — Stable operation in oil, dust, vibration, and high-temperature engine or hydraulic environments.
    • Threaded metal body — Easy installation on engines, gearboxes, hydraulic pumps, and motors.
    • Multiple applications — Used for vehicle speedometers, tachographs, engine RPM monitoring, and hydraulic system speed feedback.

    FAQ
     

    A magnetic pickup speed sensor is used to measure the rotational speed of gears, shafts, and other ferromagnetic rotating components. It is commonly applied in engine speed monitoring, gear speed detection, vehicle systems, hydraulic pumps, and industrial machinery.

     

    The sensor detects ferromagnetic targets such as gear teeth, toothed wheels, and slotted metal parts. The rotating target changes the magnetic field at the sensor tip, generating an AC pulse signal for speed measurement.

     

    The sensor should be mounted with the proper thread size and adjusted to the recommended sensing gap between the sensor tip and the target. The installation distance affects signal strength and speed measurement stability.
