Temperature sensors for the marine area

Temperature Sensors for the Marine Area

The marine area is a special field int he manufacture of temperature sensors, where standard temperature sensors cannot be used due to extreme mechanical stress. For example, there are acceleration forces of more than2 00 g, if the temperature sensor is directlyinstalled on marine engines. 

Most of all, the sensors used in marine application must sustainably absorb such forces. Which means that during the manufacture special requirements are demanded to avoid the breakdown of the measurement system. Thus the internal structure of the temperature sensor is designed as a vibration resistant component. Continuous quality controls and numerous tests directly fitted to marine engines guarantee a highlife expectancy.

SIKA has long-term experiences in the area of marinesensors used under extreme conditions in marine applications.
