Description A digitally derived output with a higher resolution digital/analog converter FOUR times the measurement resolution (4096 increments compared to the previous 1024) The ASIC chips, one of the most common points of failure from electrostatic damage, will be completely replaced with a custom board providing better protection and upgrade capabilities. The ability to display from 0.0 to 6.0 in lambda setting for better flexibility with alternate fuels such as diesel. Ability to upgrade firmware for future sensor types All harnesses, control units, accessories, etc are backwards and forwards compatible Options are selectable at any time via internal jumpers NTK Calibration grade sensor highly recommended for low AFR methanol applications. NTK Production Grade is the least expensive sensor we recommend for methanol applications. The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 Air Fuel Ratio Monitor has proven very successful. In a world where cost-cutting reigns supreme, we’ve kept the calibration quality air fuel ratio meter made by ECM going strong. In its original form, it was sold as the NGK Powerdex AFX, it was replaced in the NGK/NTK product line due to high cost and low margins despite its popularity. The first AFR500 system debuted in 2014, and the first significant upgrade version 2 debuted in 2016. Sometimes quality comes at a price, and we plan to keep offering this high quality product to consumers, dedicated tuners, and industry professionals. The AFR500 makes true wideband technology with top of the line measurement equipment available to enthusiasts and tuners for the first time. Air fuel ratio offers critical feedback for tuners to alter parameters to achieve maximum power and efficiency from their engine. The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 Air Fuel Ratio Monitor offers a range of true wideband sensors from low cost options to lab grade sensors. No competing system offers this flexibility in this price range. Comparative systems typically sell for thousands of dollars for dedicated calibration equipment. The AFR500 is capable of reading air fuel ratio values from 9.0:1 to 16.0:1 (0.62-1.1λ) for standard range or 6.0:1 to 20.0:1 (0.411-1.373λ) for wide range with a resolution of 0.1 to provide excellent resolution in the tuning range of most performance vehicles. The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 utilizes sensitive Nernst style, pump & reference cell based sensors that can detect a wide range of oxygen concentrations in order to properly interpret air fuel ratio in a variety of combustion environments. The Ballenger Motorsports AFR500 offers a linear analog output to be used as an input to engine control systems, gauges, or data acquisition systems. The output varies from 9:1 at 0v to 16:1 at 5v for the standard range or 6:1 at 0v to 20:1 at 5v for the wide range. AFR500v3 will include the following: Large, bright digital display controller (~3.4in x 2.7in x 1.3in) 13 ft or 7ft wiring harness with sealed connections Weld in steel exhaust boss & plug Mounting Velcro Comprehensive Installation, troubleshooting & tuning manual 0-5 volt Analog Output Signal 11-28 volt Input Power (24v system capable) Compatibility with most aftermarket ECUs Compatibility with popular tuning systems like HPTuners & SCT Compatible Fuel Types: Gasoline / Petrol (leaded or unleaded) Alcohol (Methanol) Ethanol (E100, E85, E20, E15, E10, etc) Flex Fuels Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Propane
