Figure 25: Sensor Clamping Sleeve and Sensor Installation
The wheel speed sensor must be utilized in applications where the minimum and
maximum operating temperatures are not exceeded. See BW-260-PR for details.
CAUTION:
• Operation of the WS-24 outside of the operating temperature range is not
guaranteed.
• BCVS may not provide warranty for WS-24 sensors used in applications
outside of the operating temperature range.
6.2.4 Sensor Displacement Force
At 68ºF, the axial force needed to move the sensor when retained with a fully
inserted wheel speed sensor clamping sleeve within the sensor mounting block is
approximately 22 to 45 pounds (100 to 200N). Values less than 22 pounds could
result in movement of the sensor and loss of ABS on that wheel.
6.2.5 Sensor Wiring Requirements
Proper routing and securing of sensor wiring is imperative for reliable system
operation.
Sensor wiring coming out of the wheel ends must be routed away from moving
brake components and secured to the axle to prevent excess cable length and
wiring damage. When securing sensor wires to the axle, it is required that cable
ties be installed to the sensor wire within 3 inches (76.2 mm) of the sensor head
to provide strain relief.
Following the axle, the sensor wires must be attached along the length of the
service brake hoses using cable ties with ultraviolet protection and securing the
cable every 6 to 8 inches (152 to 203 mm). Sufficient – but not excessive --
cable length must be provided to permit full suspension travel and steering axle
movement. Wires must be installed so that they cannot touch rotating elements
such as wheels, brake discs or drive shafts. Radiation heat protection may be
necessary in the area of brake discs.
