Sensors measure 5-250mm within fractions of a millimetre

Designed to meet the exacting requirements of the global automotive sector, Morgan Advanced Materials has introduced a versatile new range of high-specification sensors. Designed for high-volume manufacture, the sensors can measure levels from as low as 5 to more than 250mm within fractions of a millimetre, making them suitable for applications including fuel tank gauging, oil level detection and gearbox oil measurement.

Combining state-of-the-art engineering and materials technology with highly chemically resistant wires in a unit with no moving parts, the sensors ensure a long service life and unrivalled accuracy. Boasting strong tilt resistance, angular directivity and vibration resistance, they are suitable for use in cars, commercial vehicles and even off-road vehicles. Customised models are available to cope with greater depths, complex fuel tanks and high-pressure oil environments.

Charlie Dowling, Morgan Advanced Materials, explained: “Traditional sensors in the automotive sector are typically either mechanical, with moving parts which can wear over time due to friction, or have a ball valve mechanism, which has a larger footprint. However, our new sensors combine exceptional accuracy and durability in a compact and cost-effective package. We are keen to speak to both OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers seeking to offer the very best in sensor performance to their customers.”
