ABSTRACT:
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 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.
