How Speed Governors Work
In general, speed governors have electronic sensors and these sensors work with the engine’s computer to be able to control the speed rate of vehicle. The electronic sensors collects data of the speed rate of a vehicle, and conveys that information to the engine’s computer.
Once the speed rate reaches the preset limit, the engine quickly restricts the free flow of air, fuel and even the combustion system so that the vehicle cannot spark and proceed. By communicating the speed rate to the engine’s computer system, the engine is able to help control the speed rate of the car.
The vehicle can move as fast as it can, but it would generally be unable to overstep its speed limit. In this way, the speed governor works with the car’s engine to control overspending. The vehicle’s speed limit is calibrated by technicians during installation.
