Octane Interface Panel
Monitoring engine temperatures and pressures while recording data for Research and Motor Octane Number methods can be a challenge. Manually collecting and recording the data to complete an octane rating of a fuel is a process that can take time. And any mistakes can result in loss of time and money. The Octane Interface Panel […]
Digital Knockmeter
Digital replacement for analog knockmeters for use with Octane Rating Units Analog knockmeters have limitations. Their range is limited between 0 and 100 and the linearity from meter to meter is questionable after our research. There is human interaction with an analog meter to determine where the needle lies along the sweep of the range. […]
The What, When, and Why of “Spread” By Thomas Grant
What is Spread? Spread – The sensitivity of the analog detonation meter expressed in Knockmeter divisions per octane number. What are the major components required to obtain Spread Sensor, D-1 pick-up, (Pressure transducer) Signal conditioning instrument – Detonation meter, 501 series Display – Knock meter (Weston or Metermod) Internal combustion engine The What, When, and […]

Detonation Pickup Basics
By Chad Michaelis at Vertex Electronics Inc. The detonation pickup has been around since 1946, when it was introduced by Phillips Petroleum Company (Figure 1). Different forms of bouncing pin technology were utilized prior to the introduction of the detonation pickup. The detonation pickup has changed little since its introduction and was designed to mimic […]
