The KE434X1 sensor attaches to a vehicles steering wheel and measures steering
wheel torque of the vehicle under test. The KE434X1 Effort Sensor
is very small and clamps onto the rim of a wheel with a single point clamp.
This allows for clamping onto any configuration of steering wheel.
The KEI-434 Signal Conditioner & Transmitter is mounted in a housing
the same weight of the Effort Sensor. The KEI-434 Transmitter is
mounted on the wheel, 180 degrees apart from the KE434X1, to insure proper
balance on the steering wheel. An operator drives the vehicle, to
be tested, in a normal manner with a knob on the KE434X1 sensor.
The measured torque is transmitted wirelessly via an RF transmitter to
the receiver, which in the past has been achieved with cumbersome wires.
Kemkrafts system is compatible and risk free with S.I.R. air bags.
The KEI-434 Receiver is powered through the cigar lighter socket, is a
computerized data acquisition system and receives the torque value, under
test, via an RF link. The received data is 1.) displayed on an LCD
display for dynamic viewing and 2.) stored in the computer memory for SPC
purposes. After many tests have been performed, the Receiver box
can be connected to an IBM computer to download the test data for SPC work.
