BMW 320i Air Flow Sensors

Relays are electrical switches used to convert a small electrical load into a circuit capable of handling a high amperage load. Computers and small switches are not designed to carry the higher amperage requirement of a circuit that may have an electric motor, solenoid, or high amperage lighting fixture. Within a relay are contacts that are controlled with electromagnetism, when the circuit switch commands the device on or off, magnetism will pull or release the contact arm closing or opening the contacts within the relay that carry the voltage.

The temperature of various systems must be reported to the engine control module (ECM) as well as other operating system controllers in the vehicle. Coolant temperature, cabin temperature, exhaust temperature and ambient temperature are just a few systems reported by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is fed 5 volts by the systems computer, within the sensor housing will be a thermistor, or dropping resistor whose resistance value will change as the temperature surrounding it changes. Changing resistance in the circuit will change the volt signal at the processor indicating the current operating value.

NGK is the world’s largest supplier and manufacturer of OEM oxygen sensors. Oxygen sensors play a critical role as part of the vehicle’s on-board diagnostic system in maintaining optimal engine performance, maximizing fuel efficiency and reducing harmful emissions. While conventional switching oxygen sensors only switch rich or lean, wideband oxygen (or Air-Fuel Ratio) sensors produce a linear output signal that allows the ECU determine exactly how rich or lean an engine is running and make continuous and precise adjustments of the air-fuel mixture to stay closest to stoichiometric, providing the best possible combustion and fewest emissions. A ceramics company at our core, uses state-of-the art technology enabling complete control of the ceramics used in our wideband oxygen sensors from raw material to finished product. Trust The Sensor Specialist for full-line market support and OE application technology.
