Achieve maximum motor performance and efficiency while staying within safe thermal limits with our temperature sensing solutions
In motor-control applications, our temperature sensors keep motors from exceeding safe operating temperatures that could lead to overheating, bearing failures, overloads or winding faults. Concurrently, enabling operation closer to thermal limits achieves peak motor-control performance without shortening motor life.
Benefits:
- Cooler/heater activation at elevated temperatures guards battery-management systems and system health while reducing system downtime.
- Safe power management increases the performance of other sensors and extends component lifetimes.

Enable real-time thermal monitoring to guard against overtemperature, under- and overvoltage, or discharge with our temperature sensing solutions
In automated factories, our temperature sensors monitor battery packs and chargers, along with industrial, telecommunications and server, and AC/DC power supplies. Accurate monitoring enables higher efficiency – increasing battery life and enabling faster charging – by optimizing the power supply based on real-time data.
Benefits:
- Thermal drift compensation to increase accuracy and reliability.
- Lower maintenance costs and reduced system downtime by using temperature data to quickly detect overheating.
