The crank angle encoder type 2613B provides the basis for all
crank-angle-related measurements of internal combustion
engines. It consists of an angle encoder, a signal conditioner
and a line terminator. It generates 3 TTL rectangular-pulse
signals: A crank angle signal with adjustable resolution
(0,1...6), a crank-angle-related trigger signal, and another
crank angle signal with fixed resolution (1), which can be
used for the engine management system or the engine speed
at the test bench. The crank angle encoder is suitable for use
together with most engine indicating systems.

Description
The crank angle encoder contains a precision marker disk with
a trigger mark and 360 angle marks which are scanned by a
transmission photoelectric cell. Their light intensity is regula-
ted in order to compensate for any soiling. The disk and the
photoelectric cell are encased in a dustproof housing.
With its wide speed range of 1 ... 20000 rpm the encoder can
be used on a large variety of engines. Even 1 rpm of the
crankshaft can be measured correctly.
The separate amplifier is connected by means of a 1,5 m long
cable. It is powered by a 5 VDC power supply and supplies
one TTL-compatible output signal each for the trigger marker
and angle markers (Fig. 2).
The line terminator contains a circuit, which protects the sig-
nal and generates an additional crank angle signal with fixed
resolution, which can be used for the engine management
system or the engine speed at the test bench.

The required resolution of the crank angle signal is set by DIL-
switches in the signal conditioner. If required the resolution
can also be set by the remote-control-unit type 2613B5
(accessories).
The cable, the amplifier and the line terminator are shielded in
order to reduce electromagnetic sensitivity (Fig. 3)
The Type 2613B crank angle encoder is ideal for many appli-
cations owing to its compact measurements and extended
speed range. An important feature is the simple replaceability
of the cable with its sensor. The device is compatible to AVL
measuring chains.
Application
The crank angle encoder is used wherever motor angle and
flow information is needed, especially for calculating IMEP
and heat release. An extremely exact alignment (ca. 0,1) of
top dead centre of each cylinder to the trigger signal of the
encoder is decisive for precise indication (TDC determination).
Installation
The crank angle encoder should be mounted directly on the
free end of the crankshaft, insofar as this is possible.
Consequently, the free end must be fitted with a 6-hole flan-
ge (Fig. 1). Mounting the crank angle encoder to a shaft
downstream of the crankshaft may lead to errors as the result
of play or torsional movement. In addition, the encoder must
be precisely centred in order to prevent vibration.
The encoder can be mounted at any angle. The encoder
housing is then attached to a rigid part of the engine via the
securing arm and positioning rod. Prior to a series of measu-
rements, the TDC position is determined as the angle bet-
ween the trigger marker of the encoder and the physical TDC
of the cylinder to be measured. Two common methods are
either employing the capacitive TDC encoder or by pressure
measurement in the motored engine.
If ground-isolated installation of the amplifier is desired, then
it has to be mounted using an isolating plate.
