High Temperature LVDT Position Sensor for Military/Defense Applications
The usual 150C maximum operating temperature won’t cut it in many military and defense applications. For those who need to make position measurements in ranges of ±0.05″ to ±10″ [±1.25 mm to ±250 mm] at operating temperatures up to 400°F (200°C), Macro Sensors HSTAR 750 Series Hermetically Sealed Position Sensors could provide the solution. In […]
Ease Temperature Concerns: We’ll Call You
Adding to its USB, and Wi-Fi editions, Temperature@lert Cellular Edition monitors the ambient temperature in a server room or other critical area and alerts the user via email, telephone and text message when the temperature rises or falls outside of an acceptable range. The pre-calibrated digital temperature sensor is accurate to within ±0.5°C with a range […]
Wireless Position Sensor
Honeywell Sensing and Control now offers the XYR6000 Wireless Position Sensor that works with its OneWireless™ systems. Operating at 2.4 GHz Discrete Sequential Spread Spectrum (DSSS), the unit has a data rate of 250 Kbps and nominal signal range of 305m (1000ft.) between Field Sensor and Infrastructure unit. The analog output has an accuracy of […]
Proximity Sensor for Welding Applications
Rather than frequently replacing a sensor in an abusive welding environment, a new inductive proximity sensor can provide increased impact protection. Balluff’s BunkerProx M18 sensor has a thick housing for withstanding mechanical impact in welding applications. A frontal-impact deflection ring protects the face from repeated welding impacts. In addition, the sensor’s ceramic face resists weld spatter […]

Endevco® prepolarized condenser measurement microphones, available in 1/8”, ¼”, and ½” diameters, […]
Dual Redundant Output Rotary Position Sensor from Penny + Giles
Christchurch, UK – Penny + Giles has introduced the SRH220DR, a new dual redundant output contactless rotary position sensor. The SRH220DR uses proven, non-contact programmable Hall-effect technology to provide OEMs with highly reliable and accurate rotary measurement in extreme industrial and off-highway environments. This new sensor, with a choice of integrated 6-way connectors, provides numerous […]
TURCK Linear position Sensors Replace Magnetostrictive and Potentiometer Devices
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK’s new LI-Q25 series linear position sensors replace magnetostrictive and potentiometer devices to deliver precise, repeatable measurements in metal processing machines, rolling mills or injection molding machines. Unlike magnetostrictive or magnetic inductive position sensors, LI-Q25 sensors do not require a magnetic positioning device; thus, they are unaffected by metal debris. The sensors […]
SMARTEYE® ColorWise™ Sensor from TRI-TRONICS
TAMPA, FL: TRI-TRONICS COMPANY, INC. has introduced the first “True Color Sensor” designed to perform as well as an instrument or a spectrometer. The new SMARTEYE® ColorWise™ Sensor will solve the most difficult color applications at higher speeds than color cameras or other sensors; ideal for intricate color sorting or inspection problems found in today’s […]
