Brake Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation
PRESSURE SENSORS
Application
^
Sense the driver's braking intentions (braking while an ESC intervention is in progress)
^
Control the precharging pressure
Design
The sensor consists of two ceramic disks, one of which is stationary and the other movable. The distance between these disks changes when pressure is
applied.
Function
^
The pressure sensors operate on the principle of changing capacitance (a).
^
The distance (s) between the disks and, thus, the capacitance changes when pressure is applied to the movable disk by a braking intervention.
^
The fluid displacement of the sensor is negligible.
^
Max. measurable pressure : 170 bar
Guaranteed by redundant installation
Installation location
The sensors are mounted on the TMC (primary and secondary circuits).
