Both are from Variohm´s Swiss distribution partner, Contelec AG, and feature separate magnet and sensor components for continuous rotation in a two-part design that requires no mechanical bearing or joint - and with no wearing parts and IP68 protection class, they offer an effectively limitless mechanical working life.

Expanding its range of pressure sensors, Variohm EuroSensor has introduced the new and robust EPT7100 series featuring 316 grade stainless steel wetted parts and an integral Packard connector for durability and convenient installation at competitive cost. With a choice of four hermetically sealed pressure ports and five standard pressure range options from 0.01 to 10 bar, the EPT7100 is a suitable choice for gas or liquid pressure measurement for on- and off-highway automotive, HVAC, compressors, industrial hydraulics and more.

Variohm EuroSensor has added two new weighing indicators to its existing range of sensors for monitoring load, that offer OIML and CE approval plus a host of features and options for commercial and industrial weighing applications. Suiting both scale and process weighing tasks, the new 20i and 22i series can be configured with a choice of 6-digit LCD or LED displays. 

Expanding its comprehensive range of pressure sensors, Variohm EuroSensor has introduced the new low-cost EPT2105 series for a 0.5-4.5V ratiometric output in two measurement range options of 10 and 12 bar. With its silicon pressure cell design based on Variohm´s well-proven EPT2100 series, the new sensor replaces the 2100´s stainless steel casing with a moulded glass fibre reinforced Polyamide housing.

A new range of robust diaphragm-type pressure switches launched by Variohm EuroSensor, which are aimed at demanding HVAC and industrial processes for air, water, hydraulic fluid and other oil mediums in measuring ranges from 0.3 to 10 bar. Available in a choice of brass (EPS01) or stainless steel (EPS02) housings, these competitively priced switches offer generous overpressure limits and a choice of NBR or Viton diaphragm materials for maximum application flexibility.

As part of its comprehensive range of load cells, strain gauges and force sensors, ZEMIC Europe offers complete weighing kits for straightforward installation on elevators and weighing platforms where safety and overload protection, added passenger comfort and lift availability are critical factors.

The TFD-4000 series short-stroke linear transducers from Novotechnik are a suitable and economic solution where minimal size, high environmental protection, extremely long life and high reliability are key factors for medium to high-volume OEM position control applications. Available from Variohm EuroSensor, they feature single or optionally redundant ratiometric output; a typical repeatability of ±0.1 % FS; a measurement range of 5-50mm; and 12-bit resolution.

After an intensive testing of the SMO series current-loop output pressure sensors ADZ NAGANO, the German industrial sensor manufacturer has released comprehensive diagnostic information for failure rates, reliability and lifecycle performance that enables users to meet the requirements for functional safety related applications to SIL 2 and PL d.

  Maintaining the optimal performance and reliability that is required for the high power amplifier stages, BONN Elektronik use Variohm EuroSensor for the supply of custom modified temperature sensors that are an integral part of the amplifier´s performance monitoring.

ADZ NAGANO develops and manufactures pressure sensors and transmitters that meet the highest industrial requirements for standard and specialist applications ranging from mobile machinery to aerospace equipment. Represented in the UK by Variohm EuroSensor, ADZ is especially active in technologically demanding projects such as the following railway braking application that call upon its considerable expertise to solve unusually challenging tasks.

The automated BOXFILR system specifically for handling vegetable produce such as potatoes, carrots and onions is manufactured by Netherlands based agricultural machinery specialist Van Hees. During harvest time for farm use, and as an all-year-round support for distribution storage and transportation, the system includes conveyor delivery, filling, emptying and crate stacking operations with very high efficiency thanks to several modules that perform specific tasks.

Through its UK distribution partnership with measurement technology leaders Novotechnik, Variohm EuroSensor supplies and supports linear and rotary sensors that feature the standardised communications protocol IO-Link. With real-time collection of machine data a fundamental part of Industry 4.0, the IEC 61131-9 communications standard provides fast and secure updates to and from the field level - not just for positional data but also for status and diagnostic information.

Netherlands-based med-tech instrument innovator, Novuqare has developed a range of bag sealing machines for medical instruments that use specially modified ZEMIC miniature load cells to precisely measure sealing force. As an intrinsic part of the sterilisation process, the award winning ProSeal perfectly seals the instruments in special pouches in preparation for autoclave sterilisation.

Available exclusively in the UK from Variohm EuroSensor, Contelec A.G. has introduced the Vert-X 79 magnetic rotary encoder, which is designed for high accuracy angular measurement on construction machines and heavy-duty mobile vehicle applications where extreme conditions call for the highest levels of durability.

The accreditation for the ISO 9001:2015 quality management standard as well as ISO14001:2015 for environmental management systems has been awarded to Variohm EuroSensor. The implementation and award of these approvals also includes Variohm´s sister company, Ixthus Instrumentation, who provide design and build of customised test and measurement systems.

Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) overmoulding is in included by Variohm EuroSensor as a part of a broad range of manufacturing capabilities, for many of its sensor products and is able to provide this service on a sub-contract basis for other manufacturers.

Areotech’s AGV series scanners are controlled by the Nmark GCL, resulting in improved settling times, long-term thermal stability and micron-level tracking accuracy due to advanced features such as full state feed-forward, 200kHz servo rates, and look-ahead-based velocity control.
