Tested for over 2 million cycles

+2% linear output accuracy

IP6K9K rated for dust and high-pressure water exposure

Reverse voltage protection up to -18V

6 reasons why

Precise height measurement

Our Ride Height Level Sensors have +2% linear output accuracy over its entire operating range. When the road changes, the ride height data stays stable.

Constructed for harsh conditions

An IP6K9K protection rating seals the unit against dust and high-pressure water. No need to worry about road spray or workshop cleaning. The sealed housing protects the internal electronics from environmental stress.

Long service life

Each sensor withstands over 1 million ball head swing cycles and 2 million durability test cycles. The joint and internal components are more than capable of tolerating repeated suspension travel.

Electrical fault protection

Reverse voltage protection up to -18V protects the Ride Height Level Sensor from wiring errors and faults.

Passenger and commercial coverage

Need a sensor that does it all? Ours are compatible with both passenger and commercial vehicle applications. Give your workshop the flexibility to support different vehicle types with innovative solutions.

Lower maintenance costs

Extensive cycle testing and environmental sealing lead to long-term reliability for your customers. That means fewer returns because of premature failure and fewer repeat workshop visits.

Innovation where it counts

How the Ride Height Level Sensor works

Our Ride Height Level Sensor measures the distance between the vehicle body and the suspension with laser-sharp precision. It converts movement into an electrical signal that delivers +2% linear output accuracy even as load and road conditions change.
That signal is then fed into the suspension control system. When the control unit receives real-time height data, it can adjust the suspension settings as needed. The result is a smooth driver experience with rock-solid handling and total comfort.

Ride Height Level Sensors FAQs

Are Delphi's Ride Height Level Sensors tested in real-world conditions?

Yes. We are big believers in testing our innovations to make sure they perform on the road. Our sensors are tested to withstand more than 1 million ball head swing cycles and 2 million durability test cycles. The housing meets IP6K9K standards for dust and high-pressure water exposure, as well.
How accurate is the ride height signal output? Why does it matter?
You get +2% linear output accuracy over the operating range. The more accurate the data, the better the suspension control unit can respond. This leads to a smooth, comfortable drive.
Which vehicle platforms does Delphi's Ride Height Level Sensor cover?
Our sensors cover 155M-plus vehicles, including BMW, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, and VAG applications. The range supports both passenger and commercial platforms, too, in EMEA.
