Today’s increasingly complex engine management systems rely upon sensors to monitor, measure and control vehicle performance including fuel economy, safety, and control of exhaust emissions. Electronic circuitry and sensitive system components demand thermistor protection and control. Our custom-design capability and problem solving expertise mean that we can offer innovative solutions in circuit protection; and temperature measurement and control. Sensors monitor engine thrust, reliability and emissions in test cells, while also monitoring test cell throughput. In the cabin, our HVAC sensors provide climate control for a comfortable environment while a variety of other sensors monitor temperature in appliances like coffee makers, microwaves and refrigerators. 4 Our comprehensive product range includes temperature sensors for use in coolant or transmission fluid; high temperature sensors to measure exhaust gas temperature; IR, gas and humidity sensors for cabin comfort; and solar and light sensors. Our single-piece leadframe construction reduces the number of interconnections and ensures more reliable performance. Our sensors excel at applications such as process control energy management, HVAC systems, power supplies, transformers, motor soft start and general time delay units. They are used to control critical process temperature. Our simple-to-integrate sensors are designed to meet the rapidly changing demands of deregulated and global markets for high-technology sensors. Around the Home For Healthcare In the Plant Today’s consumers expect their everyday appliances to deliver reliable and efficient performance. Electronic sensors offer improved accuracy over electromechanical solutions and are designed to perform over a very wide range of temperatures and specifications. Our sensors play a vital part in measuring and controlling the temperature of water, steam, air and food. They are also used for flow measurement, level control, and overload protection and in combination with other sensors for multiple functions. We have developed state-of-the-art, high-performance sensors known for their accuracy, reliability and small size. Used extensively for heart catheters, esophageal stethoscopes, fever thermometers, skin sensors, blood analyzers, incubators, respiration monitors and hypodermic needle sensors, they help meet many temperature-related requirements. Our custom-design capability and problem solving expertise mean that we can provide innovative solutions in circuit protection, temperature measurement and control, liquid level detection and gas flow measurement. We have one of the most extensive product ranges of industrial temperature sensors in the world. Temperature sensors can be found all around the home in boilers and water heaters, washing machines, dishwashers, stoves, microwave ovens, irons, toasters, refrigerators and deep freezers. Innovative work on small precision sensors continues for cancer research. Thermistors measure the temperature of cells and with precise monitoring, doctors can use heat to destroy diseased cells in tumors. With new markets emerging worldwide, our global sensor manufacturing centers meet local content demands and allow us to exceed specific customer requirements. Along with the best manufacturing and test equipment, our strict manufacturing processes and quality procedures ensure the highest standards for your applications. 5 NTC or PTC? Thermistors are thermally sensitive resistors with either a negative resistance/temperature coefficient (NTC) or positive resistance/temperature (PTC) coefficient. Thermometrics offers a wide range of both types of thermistors from component level through complete assemblies. Both types of thermistors are solid state ceramic components, known for their exceptional quality and long life. NTC Thermistors NTC thermistors are manufactured from the oxides of transition metals and can operate over the range of -196°C to 1000°C. Choose an NTC thermistor when a continuous change of resistance with temperature is required. PTC Thermistors PTC thermistors are temperature-dependent resistors manufactured from doped barium titanate and are available with transition temperatures from 60°C to 200°C. Choose a PTC thermistor for self reset-capable fuse and heater applications.
