YORK, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Standard Motor
Products, Inc. (SMP) continues to expand its industry-leading
Camshaft and Crankshaft Position Sensor program with late-model
coverage for import and domestic vehicles. Standard® Cam and Crank
Sensors are engineered for accuracy, speed, and durability to help
keep vehicles operating as designed and last.
Camshaft and crankshaft position sensors measure the relative
position of the cam and crank as well as the rotational speed and
whether they are accelerating or decelerating. These sensors are
highly complex, measuring and processing in real time, and even the
slightest delay or inaccuracy can affect timing, impacting engine
performance, fuel economy and emissions. Accuracy, speed, and
durability are the most important characteristics of a properly
functioning sensor, and Standard® engineers and manufactures its
Cam and Crank Position Sensors to meet these requirements.
Standard® Cam and Crank Sensors feature advanced circuitry that
provides immunity from electromagnetic interference for long-term
accuracy, and utilize a high-strength neodymium magnet to ensure
the proper signal voltage is sent to the PCM. Speed is achieved by
the integrated analog to digital convertor, which provides the PCM
with real-time information digitally. For durability, these Sensors
use watertight connectors to keep out moisture and a sealed metal
case which prevents oil intrusion. Additionally, Standard® Crank
Sensors feature a protective sleeve to prevent wires from chafing
and creating short circuits. Standard® Cam and Crank Sensors are
vibration tested for up to 68 hours and chamber tested from -40°F
to 257°F to ensure that they will perform in extreme conditions.
Each Sensor is also end-of-line tested for timing, pulse width, and
signal amplitude so they can be recommended with confidence.
The Standard® and Blue Streak® Cam and Crank Sensor program
features industry-leading coverage, with nearly 1,000 SKUs covering
more than 250 million vehicles. Standard® is committed to the
continued expansion of this program. Recent additions include new
Camshaft Sensors for popular vehicles like the 2022-21 Chevrolet
Trailblazer, 2023-22 Volkswagen Taos, and Genesis vehicles through
2023. New Crankshaft Sensors have been added for heavy-duty RAM
trucks through 2024, 2023-22 Kia Carnival, 2022-17 Toyota
Highlander and more.
As part of a complete program, Blue Streak® Cam and Crank Sensor
Kits are also available. Blue Streak® Cam Sensor Kits include all
of the required sensors and new high-temp connectors, while Crank
Sensor Kits include a new crank sensor along with a high-temp
connector.
John Herc, Vice President Vehicle
Control Marketing, SMP, stated, "Our complete line of Cam and Crank
Sensors offers industry-leading coverage. Combine that with our
precision engineering and extensive testing regiment, and you have
a Cam and Crank Sensor program that's second to none."
All Standard® and Blue Streak® Cam and Crank Sensors and Kits
are listed in the catalog found at StandardBrand.com and in
electronic catalog providers.
