Page 11: Driveshaft Collar And Sensor
When the magnet moves out from under the sensor, the signal is lost and the drive shaft RPM is not recorded. In order to avoid this problem, Racepak has made collars that contain two pairs of magnets (total of 4). Each pair of magnets is mounted longitudinally (inline) on the collar, which allows it some freedom to move without the sensor losing contact with a magnet. -
