Throttle Angle Sensor
Rotary position sensor specifically designed for sensing throttle position. 97° rotation position sensing range. The hollow rotor allows insertion of a ‘D’ profile shaft from either side to give clockwise/anticlockwise rotation measurement.

Installation
There are 3 leads that come from the sensor:
Red = +5v reference supply from the Data Logger
Black = ground connection on the Data Logger
White = Signal, connect to an analogue input.
A user defined variable can be entered into the analysis software to convert the voltage into an actual angle or throttle percentage if required.
