Custom Application
Specific Solutions
Rarely does a 100% off-the-shelf position sensor satisfy the
mechanical, electrical and/or power requirements of a sophisticated
OEM design. Our experienced engineers are ready to work with
your new product development team to find the ideal technology
and packaging to meet your needs. Whether modifying an existing
sensor design or working from a "clean sheet" approach, the
resulting Measurement Specialties sensor will be tailored to your
exact application requirements and push the envelope of product
performance.
A World of Precision,
High Reliability Applications
Customers turn to Measurement Specialties for those position
sensing applications where exacting performance and the ability to
withstand demanding environmental conditions are common. We
design, manufacture and test our potentiometers to MIL-PRF-39023
and many of our hall effect sensors to RTCA/DO-160F aircraft standards.
Military and aerospace applications include aircraft cockpit
instruments, engine fuel controls, fin actuators, angle of attack controls,
weapons guidance systems, remote piloted vehicle actuators, vehicle
joysticks, gun elevation and steering controls. In the commercial/
industrial world our sensors are found in camera positioning controls,
robotic joint feedback, medical endoscopy controls, physical therapy
equipment, X-ray positioning, surgical instrumentation, wind direction
devices, process control valves and automation controls.
Advanced Thermal
Products
In addition to our precision position sensor products, Measurement
Specialties offers a complete line of high reliability temperature sensing
products. Our Advanced Thermal Products Operation produces
temperature sensing probes and assemblies, PTC and NTC thermistors
and resistive temperature detectors (RTDs) for surface, immersion and
air sensing applications. These products are found in the refrigeration,
HVAC, pool and spa, food and beverage, military, and renewable
energy industries.

Make no mistake there is a clear difference in position sensor
performance and suppliers. Measurement Specialties is
an engineering and technology leader with a proven track
record of delivering ultra-precise and highly reliable position
sensors. We have consistently invested in the R&D that leads
to innovative new products and problem-solving custom solutions.
Our application engineers utilize sophisticated simulation software
to replicate real-world environments to ensure the performance
our customers have come to expect. In addition, we invest in
the manufacturing technology and processes that allow us
to efficiently and accurately produce our exacting designs.

Precise Linearity is essential in many exacting applications
and MS's ability to achieve absolute linearities as low as 0.1%
make it an unrivaled supplier for precise position sensing.
Shock & Vibration Resistant with the highest ratings in the
industry, Measurement Specialties has earned the reputation as
durable, highly reliable position sensors ideal for harsh
environments. Many of our sensors are qualified
to MIL-PRF-39023.

A Better Process
For more than 20 years, Measurement Specialties has
been manufacturing co-molded conductive plastic potentiometer
elements. In critical applications this process completely
outperforms all competitive methods, delivering greater reliability
and a longer life. In our process, the termination and resistance
materials are simultaneously molded with the base substrate...
resulting in a flush circuit. The hard, smooth surface combined with
our multi-finger precious metal contacts, promote ultra-long product
life and excellent electrical performance in a variety of environments.
The superiority of MS’s flush circuit over raised circuit elements (i.e.,
conductive plastic film screened conductive plastic cerment, hybrid,
and wirewound) is most evident in our unrivaled
long-term performance and reliability.

Hall Effect Technology
Measurement Specialties has developed a line of ultra
precise, non-contact Hall Effect position sensors featuring absolute
linearity of ±0.1%. These 12 bit resolution devices are qualified to
RTCA/DO-160F aircraft standards and come in 1/2" (12.7 mm),
7/8" (22.23 mm) and 7/8" (22.23 mm) dual (double redundant) sizes
with high temperature and custom versions available. MS achieves
the precise linearity in their sensors through proprietary precision
machining, chip-tuning capability and electronic testing processes.
Other producers of Hall Effect sensors are capable of
linearities ranging from ± 0.5% to ± 1%. Hall Effect sensors convert
energy from a magnetic field into an electrical signal, enabling
their contact-less operation and yielding nearly unlimited life
cycles. These sensors offer a cost effective solution for many
harsh environment applications involving temperature, vibration,
moisture and dirt, making them ideal for a range of military
and aerospace, as well as commercial designs.
