KISTLER WPT Sensors

WPT sensors are universally adaptable sensors for the acquisition of vehicle wheel speed. The sensors deliver 10 to 5,000 pulses per rotation (standard, other values on request).

WPT sensors are ultra-compact and extremely light in weight. For maximum flexibility, the incremental transducer unit of the WPT can be exchanged quickly and easily. Output signals generated by the WPT sensors provide the basis from which wheel rotation speed, acceleration, distance, and speed are calculated (measurements of this kind are afflicted with slip and dependent of the dynamic wheel circumference.
