Elobau will once again be represented as an exhibitor at this year’s ConExpo. In South Hall 4, S85221, the German manufacturer of sensors and operator controls will present its new generation of tilt sensors with the N6 static and the N7 dynamic. The N6 static enables high-precision measurement under harsh environmental conditions, in stationary operations […]

LHA-19-R series hermetically sealed AC-LVDTs
Alliance Sensors Group, a div of H.G. Schaevitz LLC, has expanded its linear position sensor line with the LHA-19-R series AC-LVDTs (Linear Variable Differential Transformers). These rugged yet high precision linear sensing devices are hermetically sealed, contactless devices with a radial connector designed for industrial and commercial applications such as factory automation, metal and paper […]
Pressure sensors combine two sensing elements
First Sensor has released its new LHD ULTRA series, with all sensor types now available as samples — the first of which have already been delivered to customers. The high-precision 2-in-1 differential pressure sensors combine two sensing elements with different pressure ranges in a single housing. The models in the series feature a 16-bit analog […]

SMI pressure sensor package enables portable applications
TE Connectivity (TE) has developed a minimal footprint SMI SO-10 pressure sensor package with vertical port, which is now in full production. Inside the housing, a MEMS pressure sensor, based on TE’s proprietary silicon technology platform, and an advanced signal-conditioning IC are combined to provide a fully pressure calibrated and temperature compensated output. Covering gauge […]
Combined displacement and inclination sensor saves cost, installation space
In many applications, both displacement and inclination must be determined for ultimate functionality. Usually two different sensors need two be applied to capture both parameters, even if the variables need to be measured at the same spot of the machine. In such cases, a combined measurement of the variables in one sensor saves costs, installation […]
New sensor solution for ventilators
The global demand for sensors for ventilatros keeps increasing. As a sensor technology manufacturer, Sensirion has made a giant development leap and is now introducing the new flow sensor SFM3019 to the market. The sensor has been optimized for respiratory applications and is available in high volumes. A dedicated team of developers has been working […]
New distance sensors combine IO-Link, voltage, analog
The newest additions to Balluff’s line of distance sensors feature selectable modes that allow users to choose between IO-Link, voltage (0…10 V or 1…10 V), or analog (4…20 mA) outputs. The two new variations — the BOD002M with a 50 to 100 mm working distance and a resolution down to 10 μm, and the BOD002N […]
LVIT position sensors for submersible ROVs
LVITs (Linear Variable Inductance Transducers) are contactless linear position sensors that offer high reliability, durability, and performance, particularly an excellent stroke-to-length ratio, at reasonable cost. These features make them suitable for various internal systems functions within many Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) for subsea activities. Typical ROV system functions include maneuvering controls, rudder and directional positioning […]
