Description

Alfano A1160 Box 12 – Advanced Kart Data Acquisition Module with Integrated G-Force Sensor


The Alfano Box 12 (A1160) is a professional-grade expansion module designed to dramatically increase your kart’s data acquisition capabilities. Built for competitive kart racers and tuners, the Box 12 allows connection of up to 17 additional sensors while featuring an integrated 3-axis G-force sensor for precise chassis and driver performance analysis.

If you’re serious about kart setup, tuning, and driver development, this module unlocks the next level of data tracking.


Why Kart Racers Use the Alfano Box 12

  • Monitor chassis balance and cornering loads
  • Track steering input and driver consistency
  • Measure pedal movement for throttle and brake analysis
  • Capture exhaust temperature and engine data
  • Analyze lap performance with real G-force telemetry

This is not just data logging — it’s a complete kart performance analysis system.


Sensor & Input Capabilities

Speed Inputs

  • 4x Speed Inputs
    (Requires 2x Hub A2195)

Perfect for front/rear wheel speed comparison and slip analysis.


Temperature Inputs

  • 2x NTC temperature inputs
  • 2x K-type thermocouple inputs
    (Requires 2x Hub A2180)

Monitor exhaust gas temperature (EGT), cylinder head temp (CHT), water temp, or tire temps.


Engine & Fuel Monitoring

  • 1x Lambda input (unheated sensor)
  • 1x Analog input
  • 1x 5V output

Ideal for AFR monitoring and custom sensor integration.


Driver & Chassis Analysis Inputs

  • 2x Pedal movement inputs (Throttle & Brake)
  • 1x Steering wheel movement input
  • 1x Exhaust valve movement input

Analyze driver technique, throttle trace, braking points, and steering consistency.


ECU & Power Integration

  • External power supply input
  • Low voltage 12V RPM signal capture (car/motorcycle ECU compatible)


Data Transfer

  • USB connection for data download


Integrated 3-Axis G-Force Sensor

The built-in 3-axis accelerometer measures:

  • Lateral G (cornering force)
  • Longitudinal G (braking & acceleration)
  • Vertical G (track surface and chassis reaction)

This gives you professional-level telemetry directly from your kart.


Ideal For

  • Competitive sprint kart racing
  • Shifter kart tuning
  • Driver coaching & performance analysis
  • Advanced chassis setup development
  • Teams seeking professional-grade telemetry

FAQ

What does the Alfano Box 12 do?

The Alfano Box 12 expands your kart’s data acquisition system by allowing connection of up to 17 additional sensors. It enables advanced telemetry including steering angle, pedal movement, exhaust temperature, lambda readings, wheel speed, and chassis G-force data.


Is the Box 12 required for basic lap timing?

No. Basic lap timing can be done with compatible Alfano displays alone. The Box 12 is for racers who want advanced telemetry and performance analysis, not just lap times.


Does the Box 12 have a built-in G-force sensor?

Yes. The Box 12 includes an integrated 3-axis G-force sensor that measures:

  • Lateral G (cornering force)
  • Longitudinal G (acceleration and braking)
  • Vertical G (track surface and chassis response)

This allows detailed chassis and driver analysis.


How many sensors can I connect?

The module supports:

  • 4 speed inputs
  • 4 temperature inputs (2 NTC + 2 K-type thermocouple)
  • 1 lambda input (unheated)
  • 1 analog input
  • 2 pedal movement sensors
  • 1 steering movement sensor
  • 1 exhaust valve movement sensor
  • 1 external RPM signal input

Up to 17 total sensor connections, depending on configuration.


Can I monitor throttle and brake input?

Yes. The Box 12 supports two pedal movement inputs, allowing you to track throttle and brake application for driver consistency and coaching.


Can I log steering angle data?

Yes. With a compatible steering movement sensor, you can track steering input, which is extremely useful for identifying over-driving, corner entry issues, and chassis balance problems.


Can it capture RPM from an ECU?

Yes. The Box 12 has an external power supply input and low-voltage 12V RPM capture, making it compatible with car or motorcycle ECU signal inputs (useful in shifter applications).


Is this useful for sprint kart racing?

Absolutely. Sprint racers use the Box 12 to:

  • Improve throttle trace smoothness
  • Optimize braking zones
  • Analyze cornering G loads
  • Fine-tune chassis setup

It’s especially valuable at competitive regional and national levels.


Is it beneficial for shifter karts?

Yes. Shifter kart racers benefit from:

  • ECU RPM capture
  • Exhaust temperature monitoring
  • Gear change analysis
  • Advanced chassis load tracking


Do I need additional hubs for all sensor inputs?

Yes. Some inputs require compatible Alfano hubs (such as A2195 for speed and A2180 for temperature inputs).


Who is this module best suited for?

The Alfano Box 12 is ideal for:

  • Competitive sprint kart racers
  • Shifter kart teams
  • Driver coaches
  • Tuners optimizing engine and chassis setup
  • Racers serious about reducing lap times through data
