Knock Sensor – NGK SPARK PLUG CO.LTD.


A sensor that detects the knocking vibration of the engine with piezoelectric ceramics, used in spark advance control, will contribute to the improvement and fuel economy of the engine performance.

Application
Piezoelectric ceramic sensor for the detection of vibration caused by engine knocking. Knock sensors are used for ignition timing control that contributes to improved engine performance and fuel economy.

Features
Flat output over the knock frequency band of 5-15kHz allows flexibility for use on a variety of engines
Installed machine types: Four-wheel, two-wheel, construction machinery, stationary gas engines, outboard motors, snowmobiles
New technology: Lead-free piezoelectric element (piezoelectric ceramic) We have resolved the issue of making lead-free piezoelectric elements practically viable by developing one that has a high output and low temperature dependence.

Change that is not an extension of the past.

Since its foundation in 1936, the Nippon Tokushu Toryo Group has been exploring the possibilities of ceramics, contributing to the development of society, and building trust with customers under the principles of “Total Participation” and “Ryohin-ism,” which are the starting points of our manufacturing activities.

In our more than 80-year history, which has grown in tandem with the automobile-related business, we are now entering a phase of great change. The economic structure itself is undergoing major changes due to the rapid progress of technological innovation, including electric vehicles. Now is the time for us to not remain in the status quo, but to take a giant leap toward a “new stage” for our company.

In June 2020, we announced our long-term vision for 2040, “Beyond ceramics, eXceeding imagination. The vision is to face the challenges of the world and to make a better use of our resources. In order to face the challenges facing the world and contribute to the realization of a better society, it is necessary to take on challenges that go beyond the realm of ceramics, rather than sticking to the “what can be done with ceramics” of the past.

The future of the NSSC Group will aim for “change that is not an extension of the past. In a rapidly changing environment, each and every employee will always be aware of the action guideline “Change with Will! and with high aspirations, we will continue to work to solve social issues.
