Air-conditioning systems
Our climate-pressure sensors are installed in air-conditioning systems for temperature regulation. Climate-control pressure transmitters (CCTs) have been specifically developed for measuring pressure in vehicle refrigerant lines. Thanks to a robust aluminium housing, these sensors offer a cost-effective solution for vehicle air-conditioning systems.
A unique feature of the CCT family is our combined pressure and temperature sensors for low and high pressure. These sensors were developed for air-conditioning systems based on heat pumps, such as those used in electric or hybrid vehicles.
The evaluation electronics of the CCT sensors reliably deliver precise measurement data in order to regulate the system to optimum values. Our climate pressure sensors (CCTs) were developed for the automotive industry and meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Sensor systems for Air-conditioning systems
CCT pressure/temperature sensor
For air-conditioning systems with heat pumps
The CCT pressure temperature sensor is often used in heat pumps for climate control systems and in thermal management (battery), particularly in vehicles with alternative drives. The specially developed thermo receptors permit a fast response time in flowing media and guarantee the high accuracy of the temperature measurings.
CCT high-pressure/temperature sensor
For air-conditioning systems with CO2 heat pumps
The CCT high-pressure temperature sensor was specially developed for the high pressures and temperatures in CO2 heat pumps (R744). Such heat pumps are primarily used in thermal management in vehicles with electric drive (EV).
CCT pressure sensor
For automotive air-conditioning systems
The climate-control pressure transmitter (CCT) was developed specifically for measuring the pressure of refrigerants in motor vehicles. The hermetically sealed and robust aluminium housing makes this sensor a cost-effective solution for automotive air-conditioning systems.
Other applications
Hydrogen applications
Hydrogen propulsion is the future of environmentally friendly commercial vehicles and buses, because hydrogen serves as an energy source for internal-combustion engines or for fuel cells connected to electric drives.
Oil-pressure applications
Our OPS, VSP or IPT pressure sensors are used to measure the oil pressure in the transmission. The air pressure in the unit is measured with our pressure sensor. The special feature of our sensors is that they are robustly designed to withstand the stresses of oil-pressure applications.
Motorsport applications
Our intelligent sensor systems are also used in motorsports. Whether exposed to the pressure in the transmission or clutch, or to temperature in the tank – our sensors are robust, measure precisely and put the emphasis on performance!
