Crank Angle Shaft Encoder
Product Code : LSK-E-10493
Crank Angle Shaft Encoder (SKU LSK-E-10493) is a sensor that measures the angular position of the crankshaft of a test engine running on an engine test set. It works with an engine cycle analyser, which needs to know exactly where the crank is in each revolution in order to relate its readings to the engine cycle. Science Lab Supplies takes orders for the encoder at Ambala, India, and supplies engineering colleges, polytechnics, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The crank angle encoder’s details are tabulated row by row below. Essentially, it is an add-on for engine test sets that follows the rotation of the test engine’s crankshaft and reports crank angle to an engine cycle analyser; the configuration and any mounting parts for your test set are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Crank Angle Shaft Encoder
In engine cycle analysis, each measurement taken during a revolution has to be tied to a crank position. The encoder provides that reference, so the analyser can show how conditions inside the engine change through intake, compression, power and exhaust, and students can compare the real cycle with the ideal one.
- B.Tech/B.E. mechanical: IC engine cycle analysis in thermal engineering labs.
- Diploma automobile engineering: relating crank position to the four strokes.
- Research and project work that needs crank-angle-based engine data.
- Shaft-sensing comparisons: the speed sensor of the Universal Dynamometer and the speed, torque and shaft-power display of the Turbine Dynamometer.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Crank Angle Shaft Encoder is supplied as a single unit as described above; any optional accessories are listed on the quotation. The engine cycle analyser, the test set and the test engines can be added to the same quotation as separate lines.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for a single encoder for an existing test bench or include it in a full engine laboratory order; the quotation you receive lists packing, delivery time and price for that scope. Engines and other test-set ancillaries can be quoted with it.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. Give the make of your test set and analyser in a note on the contact page, or add the encoder to an enquiry cart of engine items; formal tenders are dealt with through the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a crank angle shaft encoder do?
It measures the angular position of the engine crankshaft as it turns, giving an engine cycle analyser the crank-angle reference it needs to link its readings to each stage of the cycle.
Does the encoder work on its own?
No. The encoder is an ancillary designed for use with an engine cycle analyser on an engine test set. The analyser, test set and test engines can be added to the same quotation as separate lines.
Will it fit my existing engine test set?
Send the make and model of your test set and analyser through the contact page, and the quotation will confirm the encoder configuration and any mounting parts needed.
Who supplies the Crank Angle Shaft Encoder?
Quotations for this sensor come from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, either for the encoder alone or as one line in a complete engine laboratory package with engines and ancillaries.
