VBOX SPEED SENSOR RANGE - OVERVIEW

With update rates of 25 Hz and 100 Hz, VBOX Speed Sensors provide a high accuracy speed signal to augment your testing setup.

All Speed Sensors feature an IP66 billet aluminium enclosure and Deutsch motor sport style connector, and represent the ideal solution for those that require speed, position, braking distance, or acceleration data without the need for internal logging.

  • High Accuracy GNSS receiver.
  • User configurable analogue + digital outputs
  • Brake trigger input
  • CAN Bus output

25Hz Datasheet

100Hz Datasheet

KEY FEATURES

  • Multi-GNSS

    • Using high accuracy multi-constellation GNSS receivers, the speed sensors track GLONASS, Galileo* and BeiDou* satellites in addition to GPS, which improves the quality of measurements in areas of poor satellite visibility. (*25 Hz version only)

  • CAN Bus Output

    • Data output is via CAN Bus, offering easy integration with data loggers and testing applications. Available channels are position, velocity, distance, time, heading, height, vertical velocity, lat/long acceleration, trigger to zero distance, trigger time, trigger speed, and radius of turn.
  • RS232 Serial Output

    • Selectable RS232 modes that include NMEA output of speed, position and time.





  • Live Data Monitoring

    • When connected to a laptop or PC (via serial) that runs our free VBOX Test Suite analysis software, you can monitor the test data from your vehicle, in real-time.
  • Digital Output

    • The digital output can be configured as either a digital speed pulse output or a lap beacon marker.

  • Dust & Waterproof

    • The aluminium enclosure is IP 66 rated, meaning it is protected against dust and water, and can be used in harsh environments.
  • Analogue Output

    • The analogue output can be assigned to vehicle speed, lateral acceleration, longitudinal acceleration, or lap beacon marker with user selectable scaling.

PARAMETERS

VBOX Speed Sensor measures the following parameters at 25 or 100 samples per second.

  • Time
  • Position
  • Velocity
  • Vertical Velocity
  • Height
  • Heading
  • Longitudinal Acceleration
  • Lateral Acceleration
  • Trigger to zero distance
  • Trigger time
  • Trigger speed
  • Radius of Turn

APPLICATIONS

VBOX Speed Sensor measures the following parameters at 25 or 100 samples per second.

VBOX Speed Sensors are smaller, cheaper and more rugged than the equivalent VBOX range of data loggers, with the same accuracy and quality of signal.

With a length of only 9-14 cm, the unit is easy to mount and transport, making the Speed Sensor perfect for automotive testing, motorsport, marine, and telematics.

All units are housed in the same small, water-resistant package, with connections made via a Deutsch motorsport style connector.

Brake Testing – Using a brake pedal mounted trigger input, the Speed Sensor will measure braking distance to within ±1.8 cm.

Performance & Acceleration Testing – VBOX Speed Sensors are perfect for all variations of performance testing, the accuracy and quick response of the 25 Hz or 100 Hz unit gives very repeatable and accurate results.
