Sensor technologies / Measurement principles

Baumer: Encoders installed in wind turbines have to endure harsh environments, though they must ensure absolutely dependable operation since repair and maintenance at offshore locations are specifically difficult and expensive. Often strong...

Pewatron is offering a new range of pressure sensors. The PHPSD series are piezoresistive pressure sensors with a measuring range of 0...10 mbar up to 7 bar. These sensors are available with or without temperature compensation and amplifier, as...

Baumer: There are plenty of good reasons for merging different measuring systems and technologies in a single device: Less space consumption and reduced installation and maintenance effort go together with a very attractive and competitive price....

Leuze electronic: With the especially compact implementation of the versions HRTU 412 and HRTU 420, Leuze electronic extends the range of its switching and measuring ultrasonic sensors by retro-reflective ultrasonic scanners with extremely short...

SCHMIDT Technology: In innumerable processes, the prevailing process gases must be detected, monitored and controlled. There are some methods of measuring their flow velocities or volumetric flows, but thermal anemometers are the only ones that...

Pepperl+Fuchs manufactures extremely durable and resistant sensors for construction machines, agricultural and forestry machinery, communal vehicles, fork lift trucks and spreaders for all operating principles. The sensors meet demanding...

Sensonor is developing, SAR500, a novel high-precision, low-noise, high-stability, calibrated and compensated digital oscillatory gyroscope with SPI interface housed in a rigid custom-made ceramic package. The SAR500 contains a Butterfly™ MEMS...

Colibrys: Digitexx Inc and Colibrys SA announced the successful results of an innovative mobile Structural Health Monitoring system deployed since March in a newly constructed building in Vina del Mar, Chile. The system has 16 Colibrys MEMS based...

Dytran Instruments is pleased to introduce a new technology of high performance, variable capacitance (VC) accelerometers. The 7600B series is a family of DC response accelerometers which were designed to directly replace piezoresistive units in...

4B BRAIME Components LTD: The Bulldog is a new addition to 4B’s range of hazard monitoring components. A belt alignment and rip detection switch, this electro-mechanical system has been designed to detect dangerous misalignment of the conveyor...

BERTHOLD Technologies GmbH & Co. KG: Milk of lime is used in the sugar production process to clean the raw sugar by binding the impurities in the thin juice. Decisive for an efficient juice clearing process is the concentration of milk of...

Baumer: As elsewhere, neither in the incremental encoder field there is an all-in one allround device that is suitable for every purpose. In practice, especially complex systems call for diversified configurations which influence production costs...

Pewatron: The P500 RIPS® (Rotary Inductive Position Sensor) is a durable, affordable, high accuracy rotary sensor designed for industrial and scientifi c feedback applications. The P500 is supplied with the output calibrated to the angle required...

HBM: For hygienic reasons, plants such as those for filling of drinks need to be cleaned daily with special cleaning agents and water or steam. If electric components are used there, they must meet the high degree of protection IP68 or even IP69K....
