Transportation Applications
Heavy Duty Trucks & Buses

Improving fuel efficiency and economy is a primary concern for truckers, fleet owners, and the industry as a whole. As the leading supplier of sensor solutions for the heavy duty truck & bus sector, Kavlico sensors have been robustly designed for the “long haul”. Rugged, durable, and accurate, our pressure sensors measure and monitor MAP and TMAP, engine oil pressure, fuel and vapor pressure, and transmission pressure much like those found in similar applications on passenger vehicles.

Emission Monitoring

Kavlico understands the complex government legislation driving emission standards while balancing fuel economy and vehicle cost considerations necessary to improve environmental conditions. The European and US mandates for reduced engine emissions are the catalyst behind the industry’s after-treatment DPF and SCR systems. Kavlico helps minimize the cost and size of these systems by supplying robust and reliable sensors to engine manufacturers and other system integrators. Our sensors play a valuable role in controlling these systems for maximum efficiency and triggering the vital diagnostic systems that help reduce the potential for costly repairs.

Kavlico sensors are found throughout the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system that communicates to the engines Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to help monitor the performance of major engine components, including those that contribute to the emission control system.

The health risk from environmental pollutants is no secret. Helping to control the ambient concentrations of toxic matter we breathe on a daily basis has been accomplished through sophisticated systems that rely upon Kavlico sensors. Our EGR, DPF, and urea sensors among others are cost-effective devices many in the diesel engine industry have integrated into their systems.
