Sensors for precise measurement and control solutions in industry, automation, energy and medical technology

Sensors are fundamental components in modern industrial electronics. They detect physical variables and convert them into electrical signals - the basis for reliable control and monitoring systems. Whether current sensors for the precise recording of load flows, pressure sensors for differential or absolute pressure measurements, humidity sensors for humidity control or light sensors for optical object recognition - sensor technology ensures the function and efficiency of complex technical systems.

As an established distributor, Rotima offers a carefully selected range of industrial sensors. In close cooperation with leading manufacturers such as Bourns, Okaya Electric Industries and Audiowell, we cover a wide range of applications. This also includes ultrasonic sensors for non-contact distance measurement, robust encoders for position and speed detection and potentiometers for analog signal control in HMI and control systems.

With decades of experience, in-depth expertise and a strong international partner network, Rotima offers customized sensor solutions for demanding requirements in industry, automation, energy technology and medical technology.

Technical structure and function of electronic sensors

Sensors in the electronics industry usually consist of a sensitive measuring element that detects physical variables such as light, pressure, humidity or current and converts them into an electrical signal. This signal is then processed, digitized or forwarded by evaluation electronics.

Different technologies are used depending on the type: current sensors often work with precise shunt technology, pressure sensors use piezoresistive MEMS elements, while light sensors are based on photodiodes or phototransistors. Ultrasonic sensors emit high-frequency sound waves and measure the transit time of the echoes to determine distances. Encoders and potentiometers record analog or digital position data in HMI systems. All these sensors enable reliable process control in industrial applications.

Sensors to support technical processes and procedures

Modern industrial processes are based on the reliable acquisition and processing of measurement data using a wide range of sensor technologies. Sensors are crucial components that provide data in real time and thus enable precise control. In automation technology, encoders record precise rotation angles and positions on robot joints and drives. Potentiometers are used to manually adjust control parameters, for example in control panels or testing devices. In energy systems, current sensors are used to monitor currents in battery systems or switching power supplies. In the process industry, pressure sensors are used to monitor media in pipelines and containers, for example in cooling or hydraulic systems.

Humidity sensors are integrated into air conditioning and building technology to provide precise humidity values. Sensors such as light sensors detect movements, light intensity or positions in optical monitoring systems. Ultrasonic sensors are used in fill level indicators, distance measurements or contactless object tracking, among other things.

By combining different sensor types, complex processes can be reliably recorded and controlled - a decisive advantage for Industry 4.0. Rotima supplies the right sensor solutions for this and supports companies with high-quality sensors for a wide range of requirements.
