Sensor technology

Signals through ceramic. Ceramic casings protect your valuable sensors. Technical ceramics allows a more intense interaction with its environment unlike metal-based materials.

 

Measuring cells consisting of Alumina have a very high mechanical strength and high resistance against different gases and fluids. This empowers them to be used in the application area of pressure sensors. Monolithic cells can also be an option conditional on individual design.

 

Other possible ceramic materials and their characteristics:

 

Steatite

 

  • Silicate based
  • Cost-efficient
  • Very good electric insulator
  • Low thermal diffusivity

 

Alumina

 

  • Very high strength and resistance
  • Very good electric insulator


Zirconia

 

  • High-strength
  • Excellent tribologic properties
  • High fracture toughness
  • High wear resistance

 

As an option other ceramic materials are possible as casing for your sensor system. Together we can realise your idea!
