Automotive EGR Gas Temperature Sensor Market Anticipated To Surge With An Impressive CAGR Of 2025

In an IC engine, EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) gas temperature sensors are used to measure the temperature of the exhaust system. EGR is a technique that is utilized to reduce the nitrogen oxide emissions in petrol/diesel engines. Exhaust gases are reintroduced into the engine combustion chamber to cool the combustion flame. Some vehicles employ an EGR temperature sensor to determine EGR operation. This information is used by the powertrain control module (PCM) to regulate the EGR operation. EGR gas temperature sensor is located in front of the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and in front of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). It detects the exhaust gas temperature and converts it into a voltage and transmits this signal to the engine ECU in order to control engine conditions to effectively reduce emission. EGR bypass valve function diagnostic as well as thermal protection. Gas temperature sensors are employed in various applications such as petrochemicals, automotive s...
