We live in a world of sensors
Sensors are essential in today’s increasingly industrial and automated world. Our sensors and measurement systems are vital to the next generation of data-driven technology. We offer different types of sensors which are based on various measurement technologies to fullfill applications across a wide range of industries.
Althen is your allround partner for standard and custom designed sensor solutions. We provide solutions with sensors and measurement systems for Test & Measurement, OEM and Industrial IoT Applications.
What is a sensor?
A sensor measures a physical quantity. The variables are located in the following areas: pressure, force, inclination, displacement, acceleration, temperature, strain, vibration or any one of a great number of other environmental phenomena. Sensors convert the measured quantity into a standardized control signal that is converted to a human-readable display at the sensor location or transmitted electronically over a network for reading or further processing.
