900°C Capacitive Displacement Sensors Capacitec

Capacitec (www.capacitec.com) is the world leader in the manufacture of small, high temperature (to +1832°F/+1000°C) capacitive non-contact displacement sensors and systems. Since the 1970's this technology has been used in Europe, the US and Japan to solve the most demanding applications for the measurement of small displacements (less than 2mm) and small gaps (0.23 to 4mm) in extreme temperature environments. Accuracy of 0.25 microns is possible with resolution in the nanometer range. Producers of fixed and flexible solar panels, aircraft engines, plate glass, continuous flow steel, now use standardized high temperature Capacitec sensor solutions for in-process applications to control the quality of their production on a real time basis. Qualification testing of disc brakes, jet engine dynamics and high speed shaft rotations also rely on Capacitec sensors.

High Temperature Major Applications:

• Gas and Steam Turbine testing
• Disc brake testing
• Jet engine thermal expansion/spin pits
• Metal and Glass forming
• Silicon Wafer processing
• Flexible Solar Panel coater head gap/parallelism
• Mold separation
