Miscellaneous Sensors
Miscellaneous sensors are those devices that do not necessarily fit into an obvious sensor category. There is a vast choice of sensors, transducers and detectors available to suit virtually every purpose and any application. These are generally categorised into sensor type. For example, fibre optic sensors or magnetic sensors (indicating the technology that the sensor uses); or current sensors and force sensors (indicating what is actually being detected). Many share characteristics with these easily categorised sensors, but serve a very specific purpose and function – these are typically described as miscellaneous sensors. They can sense or probe various things, such as a controlled relay sensor that controls electrical power to devices that are managed over the internet; or dual point switching sensors that allow high and low levels to be measured by a single sensor. Miscellaneous sensors are used in a vast range of applications, both in domestic and industrial settings, where very precise functions are required.

Rheintacho UK Ltd
Show more View company profileWe have been developing and manufacturing a wide range of measurement instruments since 1920, always with an emphasis on quality, durability and service. As our products remain in use throughout the world we continue to support our customers with spares, repairs and replacements and reengineered products.
In 2001 we joined with Rheintacho GmbH to create one of the largest rotational speed measurement manufacturers in the world. Rheintacho brings over 100 years of additional expertise, especially in the field of non-contact rotational speed sensors and stroboscopes.
As a consequence, our expanded range now covers a wide selection of products for the measurement, indication and control of rotational speed together with a range of stroboscopes for quality control and maintenance.
Our handheld portable range of tachometers and stroboscopes provides the user with the ability to measure speed and distance as well as carrying out maintenance checks by creating a ‘frozen’ image using a strobe. With equipment for use in a range of environments and applications there is a solution for every need.
Where a fixed solution is required we offer stroboscopes with a range of light sources, widths and trigger configurations to suit individual demands.
Our rotational speed instruments range from mechanical indicators which are directly connected to moving components, to non-contact sensors which generate a signal from the component and transmit this to electronic devices for control and indication. With this range we have the capability to supply effective solutions from stock, or to engineer existing products to meet specific requirements, either as a ‘one-off’ or for a serial production.
Our technical strength is key to remaining at the forefront of our industry, and we work closely with our clients during the product development process to ensure that when we design and develop a product for them it meets the specification and adds value to the finished product. Quality, accuracy and durability are fundamental to our success.
We believe that we can provide a cost-effective solution for your needs, and if there is not currently a standard product, please talk to us and see what we can do for you.
