Wireless Wheel Speed Sensors

Accurately measure wheel speeds up to 100 times a
second, with universal installation suitable for a range
of vehicle types.

  • Wireless technology ensures easy and fast installation
  • Built-in thermocouple input for brake disc temperature measurement
  • Straightforward integration with data loggers via CAN output

High Accuracy

The VBOX Automotive wheel speed sensor delivers 100 Hz wheel speed data with ±0.5% full-scale accuracy across its entire linear measurement range.

This ensures precise and reliable results during both low-speed manoeuvres and high-speed dynamic testing above 300 km/h, making it ideal for vehicle dynamics and performance analysis.

CAN bus-independent

Our Wheel Speed Sensors provide a completely standalone solution for wheel speed measurement, essential for development vehicles, benchmark testing, or prototypes where OEM data is unavailable or untrustworthy.

Fits Any Wheel, Outputs CAN

The sensors fit all wheel types, are battery-powered, and do not require a wired connection, allowing for easier installation and flexibility in placement.

Speed and temperature data is transmitted via CAN, ensuring compatibility with any CAN data logger.

Compact & Wireless

The wheel speed sensor attaches directly to the vehicle’s wheel bolts, removing the need for stator rods and encoders and allowing quick assembly in just minutes.

With wireless transmission, you avoid messy cables, making installation easier and improving reliability.

Robust & Water-resistant

The IP67-rated wheel speed sensor delivers precise measurement results even in harsh environments, including mud, snow, and dust. Its robust design resists shock, vibration, and exposure to salt water, ensuring consistent performance in challenging conditions.

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 Certificated

Our Wheel Speed Sensors are supplied with a traceable calibration certificate for output and accuracy issued under UKAS accreditation – ideal for audits and for companies operating under ISO-managed quality systems

Integrated Themocouple Inputs

Simultaneously measure brake temperature using two integrated K-type thermocouple inputs, allowing you to correlate wheel speed data with temperature readings.

CE and FCC-compliant

Our wireless wheel speed sensors are certified for compliance with both CE and FCC standards, guaranteeing safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and minimal interference for seamless integration into your vehicle systems.

No Securing Arms.
No Power Feeds.
No Data Lines.

VBOX Wheel Speed Sensors are fully wireless, eliminating the need for securing arms, power feeds, or data lines. This allows for effortless installation and precise wheel speed data capture.

We offer package options with or without a mounting kit. The standard kit includes chuck sizes of 17 mm, 19 mm, and 21 mm, while larger sizes (22 mm and 23 mm) are available separately. For HGVs or vehicles incompatible with the standard mounting kit, our sensor-only package provides a flexible solution.
