Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / Description of maintenance of truck axle | | Dutch term or phrase: Hoekopnamemeter | This seems to be a device for measuring the angle. Angle transducer was suggested to me but a photograph of the device seems to be more mechanical than electrical in nature. The section is entitled "Defecte hoekopnamemeter" and the only sentence in it reads: Als de hoekopnamemeter vervangen dient te worden, dan moet de as opnieuw gekalibreerd worden.
The axle is a specially designed modern one designed to control the load on the axle.The sentence occurs in the maintenance section of the operating manual for the axle. |

| | English translation:axle load sensor | Explanation:
Hi again, John,
Seeing as how you have limited information, I suggest using the more generic term "axle load sensor". If it is mechanical, rather than electrical/electronic, it is probably tied into the pneumatic suspension lines, the hydraulic brake lines or even (via mechanical linkage) to a conventional spring suspension system. A picture of such a part is shown at the web reference I provide below.
Regards,
Ben |
