How are gas sensors impacting the HVAC market?
An integral part of smart buildings and even regular homes and commercial buildings, heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems strive to reduce air extraction and limit energy consumption. In the process, limiting humidity and CO2 concentration and providing optimum and efficient comfort must also be achieved. To address these issues, the sensors need to […]
What information does a proximal flow sensor provide?
At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Lucas Tschuor, Head of Field Application Engineering at Sensirion, explains how his company’s proximal flow sensor is used in respiratory applications with the help of a teddy bear. With a very sensitive device, breathing cycles can be detected and help the patient breathe providing an ideal sensor […]
What market growth is expected for sensors? Part 2: Gas Sensors
While there are several market research reports published each year for sensors, some focus on specific markets like industrial, automotive or consumer and others address a single sensor category. Gas sensors are an interesting example. In “Global Gas Sensor Market Study Report 2019,” QY Research says the global Gas Sensor market is valued at million […]
What’s happening in air quality sensing?
Many people take clean air as a given. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates (2014) that 4 million deaths globally are caused, at least in part, by air pollution. WHO also estimates (2016) that more than 90% of the world’s population lives in regions where air pollutant levels are higher than the WHO specified […]
Proximal Flow Sensors Now Available for Neonatal Applications
Sensirion will be attending the MD&M West 2017 trade fair in order to present a proximal flow sensor for flow measurements in respiratory applications used in neonatology and pediatrics. This fully calibrated SFM3400 sensor is available as a single-use and reusable solution, and is highly robust, accurate and extremely fast in processing signals. It is […]
Proven and Improved – the SDP800 Series Differential Pressure Sensors
Sensirion, a manufacturer of high-quality flow and environmental sensors, presents the new differential pressure sensors of the SDP800 series. The sensors are the result of more than 15 years of experience in measuring air flow to millions of HVAC systems, car engines and patients. They consequently utilize the successful features of the SDP600 differential pressure […]
New EK-P4 Evaluation Kit with Flow Element
Sensirion presents the advanced EK-P4 evaluation kit, which simplifies the evaluation of Sensirion’s differential pressure sensors even further. The kit combines all the features required for test measurement, including a flow element, so first measurements can be made cost-effectively and exceptionally quickly. The evaluation kit consists of a USB stick connected to a PCB on […]
Sensirion and Clarity collaborate on PM2.5 sensor technology
Sensirion and Clarity are collaborating on PM2.5 sensing technology. Under the agreement, Clarity has licensed the exclusive rights to the development, production and distribution of its optical PM2.5 sensor technology. Clarity’s technology fills the gap in the environmental sensor market for affordable, portable and reliable PM2.5 sensors, and is the perfect addition to Sensirion’s environmental […]
New filter membrane cover option for SHT3x humidity sensors
Sensirion, the world’s leading manufacturer of humidity, temperature and flow sensor solutions, now offers an on-package filter membrane option for selected humidity sensors in the SHT3x series. The SHT3x membrane is an PTFE film that protects the sensor opening from water and dust according to IP67. It thus allows sensor use under harsh environmental conditions, […]
