Function of exhaust gas back pressure sensor

The exhaust backpressure sensor, also known as the exhaust pressure sensor, plays an important role in modern vehicles, especially diesel engines. It measures the pressure in the exhaust system to determine the back pressure of the exhaust gas. This information is used to optimize engine control and the exhaust aftertreatment system.

This sensor provides valuable data to optimize engine performance and meet emission standards. It also helps find the optimal balance between performance and efficiency. A faulty exhaust back pressure sensor can lead to reduced engine performance and increased fuel consumption.
