(Business Wire). Sensata Technologies has a rich heritage of consistently delivering millions of critical circuit protection, position, pressure, and temperature sensors to the aerospace industry. The company has expanded its product offering to support the evolution of electric aircraft, playing a pivotal role in advancing the future of aviation. Today, Sensata leads in electric aviation with its: Inceptors: Sensata is the world leader in high-volume inceptor manufacturing, boasting their ultra-light weight and compact aerospace inceptors which weigh just over 6 pounds. It leverages their industry leading RVDT (Rotary Variable Differential Transformer) sensors which deliver the precision and accuracy demanded by pilots to ensure electrified flight success. Sensata’s inceptors offer customizable grips, analog or digital outputs and provide pilots with control options spanning from one to four axes. Electric Drive Sensors: Designed for use inside aviation's axial flux electric propulsion units (EPUs), these sensors offer superior positional accuracy of <+/-1% throughout their operational lifespan. Sensor installation is easy and straightforward, while also offering high redundancy and magnetic field immunity. Insulation Monitoring Devices (IMDS): Essential for high-voltage safety, these devices provide continuous monitoring and early fault detection for deterioration of insulation between the aircraft power system and chassis. Sensata’s next generation insulation monitoring devices measure voltage, resistance, and capacitance of the system. Proving the first estimate on startup at 2 seconds, the devices include dedicated digital signal outputs for fault, warning, fault condition / HW error. Sensata’s insulation monitoring devices are ASIL-B rated for isolation state report function per ISO 26262. In addition to the above mentioned products, Sensata Technologies will introduce its new Electrified Flight (SELF) contactors at NBAA BACE 2023, representing a new era in high-voltage component technology. These contactors are meticulously designed and tested to meet the demands of electric aircrafts, offering exceptional performance and reliability proven through testing to DO-160 (Environmental Conditions and Test Procedures for Airborne Equipment) environmental requirements and compliance to AS9100 quality management standards:
