VBOX SPEED SENSOR RANGE

With update rates of 25 Hz and 100 Hz, VBOX Speed Sensors provide a high accuracy speed signal to augment your testing setup.

All Speed Sensors feature an IP66 billet aluminium enclosure and Deutsch motor sport style connector, and represent the ideal solution for those that require speed, position, braking distance, or acceleration data without the need for internal logging.

  • High Accuracy GNSS receiver.
  • User configurable analogue + digital outputs
  • 25Hz datasheet

KEY FEATURES

  • Multi-GNSS
  • Using high accuracy multi-constellation GNSS receivers, the speed sensors track GLONASS, Galileo* and BeiDou* satellites in addition to GNSS, which improves the quality of measurements in areas of poor satellite visibility. (*25 Hz version only)

  • CAN Bus Output
  • Data output is via CAN Bus, offering easy integration with data loggers and testing applications. Available channels are position, velocity, distance, time, heading, height, vertical velocity, lat/long acceleration, trigger to zero distance, trigger time, trigger speed, and radius of turn.

  • Digital Output
  • The digital output can be configured as either a digital speed pulse output or a lap beacon marker.

  • Dust & Waterproof
  • The aluminium enclosure is IP 67 rated, meaning it is protected against dust and water, and can be used in harsh environments.

  • RS232 Serial Output
  • Selectable RS232 modes that include NMEA output of speed, position and time.





  • Live Data Monitoring
  • When connected to a laptop or PC (via serial) that runs our free VBOX Test Suite analysis software, you can monitor the test data from your vehicle, in real-time.

  • OLED display
  • To facilitate unit configuration, the VBOX Speed Sensor has an OLED display and four membrane buttons on the front panel.





  • ISO17025 calibrated
  • All speed sensors are shipping with an ISO/IEC: 17025:2017 calibration certificate and can be calibration in-house.

Which Speed Sensor is right for you?

Whether you're conducting brake testing, performance assessments, or lap timing, our Speed Sensors are the ultimate choice for non-contact measurement. Operating within a broad voltage range of 7 V to 30 V whilst consuming low current, they are a perfect fit for automotive testing, motorsport endeavors, marine applications, and telematics solutions.

Measuring a mere 9-14 cm in length and housed in a rugged, water-resistant enclosure, our units are incredibly easy to install and transport. You have a choice of two variants, depending on the update rate and accuracy you require.

APPLICATIONS

VBOX Speed Sensor measures the following parameters at 25 or 100 samples per second.

VBOX Speed Sensors are smaller, cheaper and more rugged than the equivalent VBOX range of data loggers, with the same accuracy and quality of signal.

With a length of only 9-14 cm, the unit is easy to mount and transport, making the Speed Sensor perfect for automotive testing, motorsport, marine, and telematics.

All units are housed in the same small, water-resistant package, with connections made via a Deutsch motorsport style connector.

Brake Testing – Using a brake pedal mounted trigger input, the Speed Sensor will measure braking distance to within ±1.8 cm.

Performance & Acceleration Testing – VBOX Speed Sensors are perfect for all variations of performance testing, the accuracy and quick response of the 25 Hz or 100 Hz unit gives very repeatable and accurate results.
