FIT & FORGET THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR

– a business group of Curtiss-Wright Controls and designer and manufacturer of high precision sensing technology – has become widely used by throttle body manufacturers, motorsports teams, and fast road and track-day enthusiasts.

One manufacturer – Jenvey Dynamics – has been at the forefront of this technology having originally approached Penny + Giles to design and develop a contactless sensor for its own throttle bodies. These have been adopted at all levels of motorsport – from kit cars and track day vehicles to World Superbike, S2000 spec rally cars, World and British touring cars. They are also widely specified by low volume sports car and motorcycle manufacturers, where Jenvey often manages the customer’s design and development process.

With no contacting sensor parts ensuring zero signal degradation over the lifetime of the sensor, the TPS280DP has a tested life of more than 60 million operations.
