Search other suppliers in the following categories:
Conductivity electrodes are devices that measure the salinity and conductivity of water samples.
Current loop converters convert an analog or digital signal to a current loop output such as 4-20 mA or 0-20 mA.
Electromechanical relays are devices that complete or interrupt a circuit by physically moving electrical contacts into contact with each other.
Flow meters (flowmeters) and flow sensors are devices used for measuring the flow rate or quantity of a moving fluid or gas.
Flow switches are devices that monitor flow and send a trip signal to other devices, like a pump, for protection. These switches can be used for the measurement of gases, liquids, and steam.
Frequency-to-current converters accept a frequency (an AC signal) and produce an output current whose value is a function of the input frequency.
Industrial enclosures are used to house electronic components, equipment and devices. They are designed to protect personnel from accidental injury and to prevent the ingress of environmental contaminants.
Interface level measurement equipment includes sensors and meters for the detection and measurement of interface levels between different media, such as oil/water interfaces and liquid/solid interfaces.
Level controllers monitor, regulate, and control liquid or solid levels in a process.
Level sensors are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. There are two basic level-measurement types: continuous and point or multi-point.
Level switches is a generic search form for devices that are used to detect liquid or powder levels, or interfaces between liquids. These level measurements are indicated via an electrical switching action.
Liquid flow meters are used for measuring the flow or quantity of a moving fluid.
Liquid level sensors are used to detect liquid levels or interfaces between liquids such as oil and water or liquids and solids. 
Liquid level switches are used to detect specific liquid levels or interfaces between liquids. These level measurements are indicated via an electrical switching action.
Magnetic proximity sensors include devices that work on inductive, variable reluctance, magneto resistive or Hall effect principles. Proximity sensors detect the presence or absence of an object using a critical distance.
A mass flow meter is a device that consist of a mass flow sensor or transducer and signal processing electronics.  Fluid (liquid or gas) flow is measured in mass rate units (lbs/min).
Mass liquid flow switches and mass gas flow switches are devices used for measuring the flow or quantity of a moving liquid or gas in terms of a unit of mass per unit time, such as pounds per minute. These devices may be sensors with electrical output or may be stand-alone instruments with local displays and controls.
Pipe fittings cover many components that connect pipe ends for in-line, offset, multi-port, and mounting configurations.
Positive displacement flow meters measure the volume or flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes. These devices consist of a chamber that obstructs the media flow and a rotating or reciprocating mechanism that allows the passage of fixed-volume amounts.
Pressure sensors include all sensors, transducers and elements that produce an electrical signal proportional to pressure or changes in pressure.
Pressure switches are actuated by a change in the pressure of a liquid or gas.  They activate electromechanical or solid-state switches upon reaching a specific pressure level.
Protective relays and monitoring relays detect or monitor for abnormal power system conditions.
Proximity sensors, all types is a general search form for all proximity sensors and presence detection product areas.
Pump controllers monitor flow and/or level variables, and control a pump accordingly to maintain the desired levels. Pump control can include simply turning a pump on and off, or more advanced controls for pump speed, output pressure, etc.
Reed switches are magnetically actuated switches. They are typically manufactured with two ferromagnetic reeds (contact blades), which are sealed in a glass capsule. In the presence of a magnet, the blades (contacts) close. 
RTD temperature probes convert the RTD resistance measurement to a current signal, eliminating the problems inherent in RTD signal transmission via lead resistance. 
Safety relays and control modules differ from conventional relays in that they have force-guided or positive-driven contacts.
Safety sensor switches are placed in enclosures to prevent accidental contact with live electrical connections.
Safety sensors are used for machine safeguarding. Types of safety sensors are break-a-beam switches, interlocks and tag out devices, perimeter guards, photoelectric safety sensors, safety blocks, safety interlock switches, and safety sensor switches.
Sensor transmitters are measurement or signal conditioning packages that provide a standard, calibrated output from a sensor or transducer in the form of a current loop output (e.g., 4-20 mA).
Sight flow indicators provide a quick, reliable and economical way to verify the flow of fluids through industrial process lines.
Signal conditioning products provide amplification, filtering, converting, and other processes required to make sensor output suitable for reading by computer boards.
Signal converters contain inputs for one type of signal and outputs of another. Features can also include filtering and amplification or attenuation.
Solid state relays (SSR) or semiconductor relays are semiconductor devices that can be used in place of mechanical relays to switch electricity to a load in many applications.
Switches are used to allow electric current to flow when closed. When opened, they prevent current flow. Common switch types include pushbutton, rocker, toggle, rotary coded DIP, rotary DIP, key lock, slide, snap action, and reed.
Temperature instruments use contact or noncontact methods to measure temperature. Products include dial, digital, industrial and laboratory thermometers; temperature probes, indicators, and sensors; RTD elements and transmitters; and thermistors, thermocouples, thermopiles, and thermal switches. 
Temperature probes are used in various temperature sensing applications. Technology options include thermocouple, RTD, thermistor and solid state style probes.
Temperature sensors are measurement devices that infer temperature by sensing some physical characteristic (i.e. resistance, emf or thermal radiation).
Terminal and junction boxes are used to house electrical components and facilitate wiring. They are T-shaped or rectangular, made from a variety of materials, and available in many different sizes, sealing configurations and mounting styles.
Thermistor temperature probes sense temperature by using thermistors, devices made of semiconductor materials which exhibit a large change in resistance for a small change in temperature.
Thermistors are thermally-sensitive devices whose electrical resistance varies with temperature. Unlike RTDs and thermocouples, thermistors do not have standards associated with their resistance vs. temperature characteristics or curves.
Thermocouple temperature probes are bimetallic probes that are used in various temperature-sensing applications. They consist of two wires, each of which is made of a different metallic element or alloy.
Thermostats and thermal switches are electro-mechanical on/off switches that are activated by temperature changes. They are typically used to control heating and cooling systems.
Time delay relays and solid state timers use solid state electronic devices to provide a time delay.
Gas flow switches and liquid flow switches, velocity, are used to measure the flow or quantity of a moving fluid in terms of velocity, such as feet per minute.
