Sensors for Power Generation Applications
Engineers continue to search for methods to improve the efficiency of existing power generation systems (fossil fuel, nuclear, hydro) and explore improved techniques to meet the ever increasing world wide demands for clean and sustainable energy. In each case, the use of sensors is an important component in these power and energy improvement challenges. Stellar Technology’s complete selection of pressure transducers and pressure transmitters, load cells, force sensors, reaction torque transducers, temperature sensors, and LVDT displacement sensors provides test, measurement, and control solutions across this broad range of existing and new power generation applications. STI’s engineering expertise, proven sensor technology, field experience, and manufacturing capabilities provide customers with high reliability sensors for this broad range of applications. Our engineering and manufacturing center in Amherst, New York, is uniquely designed to deliver both standard products and custom-engineered special products. Rely on STI to add value to your improved power generation solution.
STI provides a wide variety of sensors to the power generation industry.
