What Is An Integrated Sensor?

Sepember 23, 2019

An integrated sensor is the core technology of a sensor without the package. It allows for multiple sensor technologies to be combined or "integrated" into a single plug-and-play assembly. Integrating as little as 3 sensors can reduce leak points by 75%, reduce footprint by up to 80%, while also reducing the complexity and optimizing the end-user's experience.

Gems offers several types of integrated sensors, including:

Piston-Type Integrated Flow Switch

• Simple, reliable reed switch and piston operating principle
• Flexible form for plug-and-play

Rotorflow Integrated Sensor

• Accurate, robust and debris tolerant design
• Mates well with valves, temperature and pressure sensors within a liquid sensing and control module

Turbine Integrated Sensor

• Small and adaptable footprint
• Highly accurate and repeatable technology using Hall Effect
• Designed for low flow OEM applications

Thin Film Integrated Pressure Pack

• Compact core technology to reduce component space
• Features accuracy, stability, reliability, media compatibility and vibration resistance
