Method and apparatus for assessing the residual life of a sensor unit

The life of a sensor unit is very strongly dependent on the loading of the sensor unit during use. The life of a sensor unit is generally specified in a number of loading cycles, however, which does not take into consideration the loading of the sensor unit. The invention therefore specifies a metho...

Zusammenfassung:	The life of a sensor unit is very strongly dependent on the loading of the sensor unit during use. The life of a sensor unit is generally specified in a number of loading cycles, however, which does not take into consideration the loading of the sensor unit. The invention therefore specifies a method and apparatus for assessing the residual life of a sensor unit which takes into consideration the actual loading of the sensor unit and therefore the residual life of the sensor unit (10) can be estimated more precisely by virtue of a damage factor (S) being determined for the loading of a loading cycle (B) and the loading cycle (B) being weighted therewith.
