Product Information

Full details

This AIM Magnetic Wheel Speed Sensor with 712 connection is designed for motorsport enthusiasts and professionals seeking precise wheel speed data logging. Its key benefit is accurate, non-contact speed measurement for telemetry analysis. A potential caveat is the requirement for a separate mounting bracket and a trigger magnet, which are not included.

FAQs

What is the cable length of the AIM Magnetic Wheel Speed Sensor?

The cable length for this magnetic sensor is approximately 1.7 meters.

Do I need to purchase a trigger magnet separately?

No, the trigger magnet is included with the sensor.

What is the optimal gap between the sensor and the trigger magnet?

The optimal gap is between 0.5 - 2.0 mm (0.007-0.07 inches).

Can this sensor be used with data loggers other than AIM EVO4?

This specific version with the 712 connection is designed for AIM EVO4 loggers. Other AIM sensors with different connectors are available for other logger types.

What kind of bracket do I need?

A custom bracket needs to be fabricated to securely mount the sensor in the desired location. The design will depend on your specific vehicle and chosen mounting point.

Is this sensor waterproof?

While designed for automotive environments, it is not rated as fully waterproof. Avoid direct high-pressure washing and prolonged submersion.

Troubleshooting

No speed data recorded

Verify the trigger magnet is securely attached and rotating. Ensure the gap between the magnet and sensor is within the 0.5 - 2.0 mm range. Check the cable connection to the EVO4 logger for integrity.

Intermittent or erratic speed readings

Inspect the trigger magnet for damage or displacement. Ensure the sensor mounting is stable and not vibrating excessively. Check for any foreign objects that might be interfering with the magnetic field.

Sensor not recognized by logger

Confirm the correct 712 connection is used. Ensure the EVO4 logger is powered on and functioning correctly. Try a different sensor input channel on the logger if available.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides accurate wheel speed data for performance analysis.
  • Non-contact sensing minimizes wear and potential failure points.
  • Flexible mounting options suit various vehicle setups.
  • Direct compatibility with AIM EVO4 data loggers.

Cons

  • Requires a separate mounting bracket (not supplied).
  • Trigger magnet is included, but requires proper installation.
  • Cable length may be limiting for some custom installations.
  • Basic magnetic version may offer less resolution than Hall Effect alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Fabricate a suitable mounting bracket to position the sensor.
  2. Securely attach the included trigger magnet to a rotating part (e.g., wheel hub, brake disc).
  3. Mount the sensor so that the trigger magnet passes within close proximity (ideally 0.5 - 2.0 mm) of the sensor face as it rotates.
  4. Connect the sensor's 712 connector to your AIM EVO4 Data Logger.

Compatibility:

  • Primarily designed for AIM EVO4 Data Loggers.

Care:

  • Keep the sensor and trigger magnet clean from excessive dirt, grease, and debris.
  • Ensure the sensor remains securely mounted and the trigger magnet is firmly attached.
  • Avoid direct high-pressure washing on the sensor and its cable connection.
