To protect our products from such extreme conditions we have developed a special solution, placing us one step ahead of our competitors:

Customer-specific sensor combinations Several sensors (mostly temperature and/or speed sensors), a plug connector of your choice and protective tubing, if necessary, are combined, thus creating a robust sensor
