Hydra-Electric to introduce new sensors at Paris Air Show

Burbank, California – Hydra-Electric Co., a provider of sensors and switches for the aerospace industry, will be introducing a new line of transducers that can withstand temperatures up to 225 C for pressure sensing and 300 C for temperature sensing. The company will be showcasing this and other solutions at the 2015 Paris Air Show, where it is exhibiting in Hall 5, Stand C-249.

 

Hydra-Electric's solution for high temperature environments, which incorporates thin film technology, offers advantages over offerings which use silicon on insulator with oil-filled assembly.

 

"Unlike sensors based on older technology, our high temperatures sensors can survive pressure spikes, avoid failure due to pump ripple, and also withstand a high number of pressure cycles," said Bob Guziak, director of sensor engineering at Hydra-Electric. 

 

Hydra-Electric is currently accepting RFIs for its high temperature sensors, which are targeting full EMI spectrum, as well as full lightning spectrum. The newest products will provide for linear accuracy over the entire spectrum, and also allow the ability to tailor the sensor to any operating parameter (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, output format, input/output impedance, amplified vs. non-amplified, etc.).
