Overview

AiM Sports Inductive Contrinex Speed Sensors

AiM Sports Inductive Contrinex speed sensors are robust, non-contact sensors used in motorsport to measure wheel or axle speed by detecting ferrous metal targets (like bolts or teeth). They work with AiM data loggers to provide precise speed data, featuring vacuum-encapsulated electronics protected against vibrations, dirt, and high temperatures, making them highly reliable for harsh racing environments.

Additional details:

* Inductive sensors generate a magnetic field and detect metallic target interference
* Detects ferrous metal such as steel. Non-ferrous targets reduce sensing range
* Sensing range: Typically ranges from 0.5 mm to 2.5 mm, ideal for close-range detection
* P67 rated (waterproof) and designed to withstand high vibration/heat
* Available with plastic or metal connectors to integrate with AiM systems like EVO4S, EVO5, and MXL dashes
* Often mounted on spindles, hub carriers, or near brake rotors to count, for instance, headbolts on a rotor
* Common uses:
-- Car/bike speed: Measuring wheel speed on formula cars or motorcycles
-- Kart speed: Used with optional magnets or collars on 30mm/50mm axles to measure rear wheel speed
* These sensors are often referred to as "fit-and-forget" due to their high reliability in demanding conditions
