Simplicity with Smarter Technical Solutions
We strive for simplicity with smarter technical solutions within the areas of sensor solutions and e-mobility.
You rarely see our products, our technology is embedded in machines and vehicles. Our solutions are used in applications that face demanding challenges every day and for many years such as outdoor environment during all seasons, withstanding vibrations, shocks, moisture and temperature changes. It is critical that our products are safe, effective, user friendly and profitable for all parties. A challenge we gladly embrace.
Regasense® Cylinder Sensors
Regasense® is the trademark of Regal Components’ cylinder sensors. It started with potentiometric cylinder sensors in the 1980s, where the first two generations, PS6100 and PS6200, are no longer in production. However, the third generation, PS6300, remains a popular product, and its production is not slowing down. Since then, more cylinder sensors have been designed and added to the product range.
The Regasense® cylinder sensors can be found on our overview page of cylinder sensors, but many sensors are developed as custom solutions for different customers. With in-house product development and production, we have the capability to design and manufacture custom-designed sensors and transducers.
Sensor Technologies
Our sensors are based on different technologies, depending on intended use.
Potentiometers with conductive plastic is a cost-effective and simple technology. They are suitable for cost-sensitive products in applications where other electronic devices fail, such as in high temperatures. Potentiometers are also very easy to use and are available as cylinder sensors, linear sensors, and rotary sensors.
Hall effect technology is used in both rotary and linear sensors. Hall effect sensors offer very versatile and robust solutions. They are often used in industrial vehicles, such as forest machinery, forklifts, loaders, mobile cranes, etc. Many of our custom-design sensors are based on Hall effect technology and come with a wide range of electronic and mechanical features.
In cylinder sensors, we also use inductive and magnetostrictive technology. Inductive cylinder sensors have a compact design with small dead zones, meaning that the total mechanical length is close to the active electrical stroke, and the sensor probe has an operating temperature ranging from -40°C to 155°C. Magnetostrictive cylinder sensors are available in a wide range of mechanical and electrical specifications. The have a very long lifetime and excellent measuring accuracy.
