Sensata's exhaust back pressure sensors measure the exhaust backpressure directly after the cylinder,  enabling the engine control unit to regulate valve timing and avoid knocking.

Position

Position

In diesel engines, sensors are typically located before the turbocharger in the exhaust manifold for turbo control and protection. In gasoline engines, sensors are typically located in the  EGR loop before the EGR valve to measure the EGR  flow in specific conditions (low flow).
