The trend in next-gen systems is towards miniaturisation. With a height of only 30 mm, the new LRS-35, LRS-50, LRS-75, LRS-100 and LRS-150F series from Mean Well enable system designers to use limited space flexibly. In addition, a no-load power consumption of <0.2 W to <0.5 W allows systems to easily achieve low power consumption, thus meeting energy conservation requirements.

PEWATRON has launched a DC/DC power supply module with enhanced 6000VDC isolation. The series boasts an output of 6W and an extremely wide input voltage range of 9–36VDC and 18–75VDC. Comprehensive voltage protection features guarantee outstanding reliability, making it ideal for use in the medical sector. These include input under-voltage protection, output over-voltage and short circuit protection, as well as overload protection.

The latest development for PEWATRON’s customer-specific PLDS pressure sensors is based on advanced Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) technology. LDS has already been used to create innovative new solutions in various areas of the automotive sector and is now revolutionising the sensor industry as well.

Pewatron has announced the 901XL pressure switch for the lowest pressure and liquid levels. Wherever marginal gas pressures or liquid levels have to be determined quickly and positively, purely mechanical, membrane-controlled pressure switches are an economical sensing and switching solution.

Pewatron AG is launching the world’s smallest insulated and controlled DC/DC converter in the 9W class – the PDL09 range from P-DUKE Power Mate Technology. The PDL09 converter is housed in a small, flat SIP-8 miniature package, measuring just 21.8 x 9.1 x 11.2 mm. But with a power density of up to 66W per cubic inch, it sets a record level in the market, exceeding the levels of the similarly sized PDL06 and standard commercial mo...

Pewatron has announced the smartMODUL BASIC EVO series of NDIR gas sensors. Gas sensors based on non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) absorption offer decisive advantages compared with electrochemical and catalytic sensors. The sensor principle exploits the quality of gases and absorbs infrared radiation at a specific, characteristic wavelength.

PEWATRON has launched the A3 series of gauge pressure sensors from Fujikura. The AG3 and AP3 series are compatible in footprint and pin configuration with the highly successful F and X series, but with better total accuracy performance (less than ±1.5%) and a very low noise output. The analogue AG3 & AP3 series is a two-chip system consisting of a MEMS sensor chip and a signal-conditioning chip.

Pewatron has announced customised zirconia oxygen sensor modules and accessories for measuring ranges from ppm up to 95%. Pewatron's customisation allows the customer to put together the best suited oxygen module for any particular application. The oxygen sensors cannot be changed in form, fit or function, but the 4 sensor types (FCX-ULL, UL, UC and UWC) cover almost the full range of oxygen concentration ranges and can also work as humidity sens...

PEWATRON has announced MIDORI’s new LP-10HA small range of linear hall effect sensors. The models are especially suited for short stroke actuators in an environment with high vibration and dither movements. A broad temperature range of -40 up to +100°C makes them well suited for mobile applications.

PEWATRON has launched the PS20A kit encoder with an astonishingly small 20 mm diameter. This extraordinarily compact unit leverages the latest optical reflective technology to deliver resolutions of up to 2046 cycles per revolution. The PS20A is ideal when size is critical and is extremely easy to install thanks to the convenient kit system. 

The MiCS-5524 VOC/CO dual gas sensor is a MEMS-based MOS gas sensor with a thin gas sensing layer that is highly selective and very responsive to reactive (reducing) and oxidising gasses. These features are essential in a fire detection system, where every second counts in order to prevent irreparable damage.

Customisation can be considered as a Pewatron toolbox allowing the customer to put together the best suited oxygen module for any particular application. The oxygen sensors themselves cannot be changed in form, fit or function, but the four sensor types (FCX-ULL, UL, UC and UWC) cover almost the full range of oxygen concentration ranges and as an extra feature it can also work as a humidity sensor.

Pewatron has released an oxygen sensor module that can be used in demanding applications where oxygen concentrations below 1000ppmO2 are measured. The key element of the sensor module is the oxygen sensor from Fujikura; it is an amperometric solid-state sensor (zirconia) with high output accuracy, a short response time to gas concentration changes and ruggedness against pressure change, humidity and other gases.

Pewatron introduces two OEM force sensors which are suited for mobile dosage of medicine and a variety of other applications including pump regulation, robotics, weighing, automation and indirect pressure & flow measurement. The sensors can be used in variety of industrial segments, such as medical, semiconductor and biochemistry industries. Pewatron offers standard OEM, off-the-shelf force sensors.

PEWATRON has launched the A3 series of gauge pressure sensors from Fujikura. The AG3 and AP3 series are compatible in footprint and pin configuration with the highly successful F and X series, but with better total accuracy performance (<+/-1.5%) and a very low noise output.

Pewatron offers two of a kind standard OEM, off-the-shelf Zirconia oxygen sensor modules; the FCX-ML type and the FCX-MC type. Dependent on the application and the control interface of the customer, the one or the other type can be beneficial. The FCX-ML type requires additional control interface electronics from the customer in case the device to be built requires any certification, like for instance CE certification.

The FCX oxygen sensor series comes with 4 different measurement ranges; 01000ppm, 0-5%, 0-25% and 0-95%. The construction of the individual sensors with respect to the measurement range has been done to meet requirements such as accuracy, signal stability/repeatability, response time and operational lifetime of the sensor, but all sensors are based on the zirconia principle.

An oxygen sensor module that can be used in demanding applications where response times are important when measuring changes in oxygen concentration has been introduced by Pewatron.The key element of the FCX-MC25-CH is the oxygen sensor developed by Fujikura. It is an amperometric solid-state sensor with high output accuracy, short response time to gas concentration changes and resistance to pressure change, humidity and other gases.

Fujikura has released the digital AL4 series of gauge low pressure sensors for volume production. With a footprint of 11.36x10.32mm, the series is smaller than other low sensors. It also features an SMT pin configuration and a high total accuracy of ±1.5% FSO within a compensated temperature range from 0 to +50°C.

An oxygen sensor module, featuring high output accuracy and a short response time to gas concentration changes, has been introduced by Pewatron. The FCX-MC, which also offers a ruggedness against pressure change, humidity and other gases, provides the user with the option of different sensor output modes.
