Sensors for temperature extremes

16 July 2018

Meeting requirements for highly stable components, particularly in the face of extreme temperature changes, the project team at Rheintacho has designed a combination of two rotational speed sensors from its modular system.

Mechanically the solution is based on the FC sensor and electronically on the FE sensor version as a 2-channel hall-difference sensor. It is also suitable for detecting rotational speed and direction as well as being able to detect standstill (0 Hz). The connection interface uses a common type of Deutsch-plug. The protection class of the sensor is IP6K9K / IP67.

Due to the intelligent and modern electronic layout, the mechanical and electronics are capable of withstanding extreme temperature change stress. And as such, the development team at Rheintacho was very excited to see the test results for the test procedure as follows.

The test procedure is very simple and extremely demanding: 1000 change cycles between -40 and 125°C. The change time between the temperature limits is maximum 30 seconds. The dwelling time at the temperature limits is 40 minutes each. To find out more about this and similar projects, visit the company at Sensors & Instrumentation, Stand C12
