Speed Governor

Speed limiters, also described as speed governors, are devices that interact with a truck engine to permit the attainment of a pre-programmed maximum speed.  Speed limiters are electronic controlled modules (ECM) that are capable of limiting the maximum speed.  The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, safety groups, and large carriers have been pushing for a speed limiter mandate on commercial motor vehicle for years because of proposed safety benefits.  In response, FMCSA gave a contract to a company called MainWay Services to conduct research on the safety benefits of speed limiters.  In December 2010, FMCSA released their findings in a "draft final report."  The report however did not support any safety benefits stating, "because of data limitations and data quality, the research team could not definitively attribute the effect to the presence of an active (speed limiter)." The results evidently were not what FMCSA anticipated and another &

A speed limiter is a governor that limit the maximum speed in a car. It can work for mechanical and electronic vehicles. As the high rate of car crashes occurs on daily basis in some countries, installing speed limit device in commercial vehicles is one of the major methods to avoid traffic accident. Let's work hard to create a safer traffic environment for social all over the world.

“Speeding is the major cause of accidents in our roads  and we have to look for all possible ways in curbing this menace, ”  the chairman of the NTSA in Kenya said. Speed control is necessary to reduce accidents in the roads. Except that, we also need to know the details of the cars, like current location, speed, etc, and then when accident occur, we can offer help in time.  So oner combines GPS tracker and speed limiter. it includes both of features and offers a more simpler way to control speed 1. set speed limit by SMS, more easier configuration Common speed governor requires you to drive the car at average speed in a straight road to add speed to it, and then you can set speed limit. By oner GPS speed governor, you just need to send command, that is all. And you can change the setting any time. 2.  complete speed limitation process When car is speeding,  oner gps governor will active speeding alert, if driver does not speed down in 15 sec, spe

Electronic peed limiters are common on many types of vehicles and are often mandatory equipment on large trucks and similar commercial vehicles in some jurisdictions. Laws requiring speed limiters for commercial vehicles are usually motivated by the concept that limiting the speed of these vehicles may improve highway safety. In the case of passenger cars, the motivation behind including electronic speed limiters is often to prevent the vehicle from exceeding certain design limitations in addition to safety concerns. Electronic speed limiters are also commonly used on high-performance vehicles with powerful engines, such as the Bugatti Veyron and Dodge Hellcat Barracuda. Speed limiters on high-performance vehicles are often used to make those cars easier to handle during normal driving. It is common for the driver of one of these cars to be able to disable its speed limiter by starting the car with a special key that signals the electronic speed limiter to shut off and enable

Speed limiters on late model vehicles work via the computer software instructions that are integrated within the various engine management functions. The system relies on data received from sensors that supply  “ road speed ”  information to the primary computer - thereby signalling the requirement to restrict  ‘ specific ’  engine management performance. These control processes are usually “spark” restriction or fuel restriction, or a combination of both. The result is totally effective for restricting Top Speed without affecting performance in any way. That is, it does not affect engine  power  – until a predetermined  “ activation ”  speed is reached. NB .

You can probably guess what a  speed limiter  does by its name alone. But how do  speed limiters actually work, and why would you want one? Yes. A speed limiting device is important in the following ways: It helps to prevent your vehicle from exceeding the approved speed limit It helps to lessen the risk and magnitude of accident arising from over-speeding It helps to keep vehicle fuel consumption at an acceptable level It helps to lessen the impact of wear and tear on motor vehicles It reduces maintenance cost generally

How does the speed governor work? Governors  can be used to limit the top  speed  for vehicles, and for some classes of vehicle such devices are a legal requirement. They can more generally be used to limit the rotational  speed  of the internal combustion engine or protect the engine from damage due to excessive rotational  speed .
