TE News: TE Connectivity to Showcase Wireless Pressure Sensing Technology

BERWYN, Pa – November 7, 2016 – TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity and sensors, will showcase its wireless pressure sensing technology with an interactive display spanning two booths at the electronica trade fair in Munich, Germany, from November 8-11.

Wireless sensors at the TE Connectivity Sensors (TESS) exhibit (B1.233) will remotely monitor barometric pressure, humidity, temperature and proximity at TE’s main exhibit (B2.225) via smart badges, with data displayed at the TESS exhibit. Using a simple computer interface, wireless sensors across several different industrial markets will remotely track environmental changes to improve productivity and identify any problems before a failure occurs.

Also on display will be a number of key sensor technologies for industrial applications, including test and measurement, and microelectromechanical-based (MEMS) waterproof altimeters for liquid or gas pressure measurement. TE will also feature ‘header-less’ media-isolated digital output sensors that offer low cost and high temperature performance. All sensors can be used in a wide range of applications in the harshest conditions.

Sensors in the Connected Factory Presented at IT2Industry@electronica
On Tuesday, November 8, during the IT2 Conference held in conjunction with electronica, Dave Enright, Field Application Engineer, TE Connectivity, will discuss the role sensors play in Industrial IoT and the Connected Factory. For more information, please attend the presentation at 2:40 p.m. (Hall Eingang West) or visit our exhibit during the show.

Enright notes, “We’re excited to present at the show and help drive innovation across industries and applications – from automotive and industrial IoT to the connected lifestyle. TE’s breadth and depth of sensor technology and engineering prowess have helped reinforce our commitment to all these growth markets to improve safety, performance and environmental standards as well as business and process efficiencies.”
