<p>A fuel injector system (10) includes a piezoelectric sensor (52) mounted along a spool axis (18) of the injector body (12). The piezoelectric sensor (52) is mounted within a spool valve stop (41). As the spool valve (16) reaches the stop (41), the piezoelectric sensor (52) identifies the force exerted thereupon and transmits the generated signal to the controller (44). Through communication with piezoelectric sensor (52) the controller determines when the spool valve (16) has reached a predetermined position.</p> |
