POSITION SENSORS
Linear and angular position transducers detect the position of mechanical parts in motion.
Gefran manufactures a wide and unique range of models, using consolidated and new technologies, including: the potentiometric technology, magnetostriction, Hall effect and MEMS technology.
PRESSURE SENSORS
Gefran’s industrial pressure transducers and transmitters measure the pressure of fluids (liquid or gas) in industrial and mobile hydraulics markets.
Three main technologies are used by Gefran when manufacturing pressure sensors: thick film on steel, piezoresistive on silicon on sapphire and bonded strain gauge. Reliable, accurate and flexible technologies in terms of application and performance. Outside of the traditional technology with internal measuring chamber, with optional pressure snubber against pressure peaks, Gefran also provides flush diaphgram pressure sensors with direct mechanical measurement using a solid 17-4 PH stainless steel membrane. These transducers are specifically designed for measuring pressures of highly dense fluids or substances with high viscosity like oils, rubbers, chemical products, etc. Such applications would make measurements difficult from sensors with internal measuring chamber. Additionally, our product range includes melt transmitters for high temperatures and pressure sensor with ATEX certification, which are ideal for applications in potentially explosive areas. The SIL2 Machine Safety certification, PLd, confirms its reliability but also satisfies the current Machine Safety directives. EU certifications such as CE, CuLUs, PESO, IECEx FM and PAC further complete the set.
TEMPERATURE SENSORS
Thermocouples and thermoresistances meets the temperatures measure temperatures in the industrial sector.
Gefran provides a wide range of thermocouples and thermistors, covering a wide temperature range from -40° to 1600°. Our set of thermocouples and thermistors is available in various mechanical designs, dimensional and precision, satisfying different needs of application in numerous industrial sectors.
STRAIN AND FORCE SENSORS
Force transducers measure compression, tensile, bending, and deformation forces.
Gefran provides both the traditional version and the exclusive Sensormate models, which rely on the innovative Press On technology, and are ideal for carrying out continuous and temporary measurements.
