SFI SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. The basic construction of the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) and the air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2)* is the same. However, they are divided into the cup type and the planar type, in accordance with the different types of heater construction that are used.

    2. The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) is located upstream of the three-way catalyst in the converter assembly.

    3. The air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) is located downstream of the three-way catalyst in the converter assembly.*

    4. The planar type air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) uses alumina, which excels in heat conductivity and insulation, to integrate a sensor element with the heater, thus achieving the excellent warm-up performance of the sensor.

    5. The cup type air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 2) contains a sensor element that surrounds the heater.*
