Safing Sensor: Description and Operation
AIRBAG SENSORSAFETY SENSOR:
Safety Sensor and electric sensor are built into the airbag control module.
Safety sensor is the pendulum type sensor. If the sensor receives a frontal impact exceeding a certain limit the mass in the sensor revolves forward to turn the switch ON.
ELECTRIC SENSOR:
Electric Sensor consists of the semiconductor type sensor which senses the deceleration at collision by the change of the electrical resistance and the impact sensing circuit.
