The Flatshifter 'shift' is a strain gauged shear beam force sensor gear knob is designed to replace the OEM gear knob on a sequential gearbox to enable clutchless up and down shifting using a Flatshifter gear shifting system or ECU ignition-cutand throttle blip functions.This gear knob utilises a full bridge strain gauged shear beam load cell thatcauses the force applied to the gear knob cover to act at the instantaneouscentre of rotation of the gear lever making the device insensitive to handposition, unlike similar sensors that use bending beam load cells.The device is supplied complete with cover, cable and connector.An amplifier module is supplied to excite the bridge and amplify the bridgeoutput. Several amplifier options are available to suit individual applications.Gear Knob SpecificationForce Range Bi- directional 1-12Kg (10-120N).Gauge resistance 350 Ohms.Excitation voltage 5 VoltsTemperature range -10 - +50 deg. C.Max overload 150% FS.Tightening torque 16 Nm.Attachment Thread M10 x 1.5 or 1/2 dia. for Quaifegearboxes.Cable. 1 metre four core shielded cable fittedwith Binder IP40 conn.Weight. 168 Grams.Amplifier Module Options.Flatshifter Amplifier Module. This version connects the gear knob to the Flatshifter shifter system as an alternative to the shift rod. The trigger level is set via the adjusting knob on the amplifier module.#Ref. 2.5volts Amplifier Module. This version gives a 2.5 volt output with no load on the load cell with the voltage rising above or falling below 2.5 volts depending on if the gear knob is pushed or pulled.Ref 0 volts Amplifier Module. This gives 0 volts output with no load on the load cell and gives a positive or negative output depending on if the gear knob is pushed or pulled. Dual Input Amplifier Module. ECU input signal wires for upshift or downshift are switched to ground at a preset trigger level depending on whether the gear knob is pushed or pulled. The trigger level is adjustable via an adjusting knob on the amplifier module. Please note options 2, 3, and 4 require a 12volt DC supply and ground connection.IMPORTANT NOTE this is the far superior full bridge strain gauged shear beam not the INFERIOR bending beam system offered elsewhere send us your email address for a full explanation
