For applications with confined and narrow spaces, IST AG offers Pt100 resistive sensors with axial leads. The extremely narrow design of the sensor chip and the glass passivation allow temperature measurements in very confined spaces. For example, where the sensor must fit into a hole or pipe with an inner diameter of less than 0.8 mm. Other design examples include sensors with axial inlets in long tubes or ducts that sense temperature at multiple points and function as averaging sensors. Other Pt resistive sensor solutions for temperature monitoring in small spaces offered by IST AG include sensors with inverted welded and bent leads for easier insertion into pipes. Take advantage of our many years of experience with expertise in custom sensor integration and consult us for solutions to your sensor requirements!

Oil is the lifeblood of many industrial plants and machines. It is used for cooling, lubrication, insulation, and power transmission. To operate a gearbox, a transformer or an industrial plant safely and stable over a long period of time, it is often necessary to monitor the condition of the lubricants with the support of sensor technology. With its robust and compact screw-in stainless steel housing, the new Moisture-in-Oil sensor is ideal for use in an industrial environment. Via a universal, digital electronic interface (I2C), the sensor can be easily integrated into various measuring and monitoring systems. The sensor is delivered temperature compensated and calibrated and a test board with analog (0-10V) outputs is also available for evaluation purposes. Customer orientation is a major focus at IST AG, hence IST AG offers application-specific assembly and calibration solutions to manufacturers of measuring instruments for this sensor.

The SFS Flow Module is primarily used in gas supply, gas dosing systems, analyzers and manifolds, but is also suitable for process control, e.g. in modified atmosphere conditions for the measurement of low flow rates. This makes this flow module ideally suited for integration in medical devices. In environmental technology the SFS module can be used in measuring instruments for gas analysis and for continuous emission monitoring. Thanks to its bi-directional calorimetric measurement, the Module provides fast, continuous gas flow monitoring with a response time ≤ 20 ms. It comes factory-linearized with a repeatability of 0.2 % and an accuracy of up to 2 % f.s. and is available in three versions for different flow rates +/-50 sccm, +/-200 sccm and +/-1000 sccm. The flow module has both, an analog and a digital I2C output and is equipped with two address pins. Another advantage is its compact design of only 50 x 40 x 20 mm. It is sufficiently small for integration into a measuring unit

IST AG has designed a factory-calibrated humidity module specifically for continuous monitoring of low humidity levels below 10%RH. With the HYT939 K5 module, a fast and highly accurate RH/T measurement can be integrated directly into existing electronic control systems without the unnecessary cost of an auxiliary transmitter. The HYT939 K5 Module has a unique price-performance ratio and is suitable for condition monitoring in humidity sensitive environments such as ultra-dry air and compressed air supply systems, including medical grade compressors. It's ideal for the monitoring of inert atmosphere for lasers, semiconductor components or metal additive manufacturing as well as pneumatic systems, including precise robotic tools. A compact assembly with extension cable and screw-in housing makes gas tight mounting without any pressure loss a simple task. HYT939 K5 humidity sensor assembly enables affordable dew point monitoring below -40°C Td and can be custom-calibrated upon request

The HYT939P with PTFE filter is the optimal humidity and temperature sensor component for industrial drying applications. The factory calibrated sensor module comes in a standard TO39 housing and is equipped with a PTFE filter. This compact housing allows for easy positioning within the monitored process while the filter minimizes the influence of solid particles and VOC compounds on the humidity sensor. HYT939P is ideal for demanding industrial settings which require a reliable and robust sensor which is insensitive to contamination and has a long-term stability. The sensor is based on a capacitive polymer measurement principle with a fast response time, low drift and hysteresis. The sensor remains stable in a high humidity environment and can sustain condensation conditions. It comes fully calibrated, and temperature compensated and is therefore interchangeable without adjustments.
