Innovative Sensor Technology IST is a market leader within the HVAC industry and offers a broad variety of products for the HVAC market. Innovative Sensor technology IST AG is more than a standard component supplier offering technology and materials science resources to find outstanding and tailored sensors for the various building automation applications. IST AG is today a one-stop shop for temperature, humidity, flow and differential pressure sensors and therefore an ideal partner to launch new quality products or redefine an existing HVAC sensor portfolio.


Trends and diversification in the HVAC market from the view of a component manufacturer The HVAC market is in a strong uptrend today and has at the same time never been more competitive. New features in Smart Thermostats are setting benchmarks on a daily basis. However, no matter how smart and efficient a system is and no matter how much functionality and connectivity you plan to incorporate in the new generation of HVAC products, at the end you will always be in a strong need of reliable and stabile sensing components. 


Many companies in the HVAC market concentrate their efforts on the software communication of theirs systems, but do not pay attention to proof functionality and quality of their most important element - the sensing component. The result is that all the smart algorithms are only as good as the data provided from the sensor component.
The Innovative Sensor IST AG strategy is to provide well engineered sensors, which provide strong dependable values through profound material science and intelligent calibration along with state of the art manufacturing capabilities and quality machines and equipment required to perform volume output with consistent quality.
Our customers appreciate the excellence in our components and the peace of mind that comes with it, wherever HVAC instruments operate large investments under the control of their products and finally their company’s brand name. We are pleased to present the portfolio for quality components in the following:

 

P14 W

The standard P14-W humidity sensor capacitor is a passive humidity component. The sensor is designed to withstand dew formation and provides extraordinary cross contamination results when applied in different gases as well as a number of corrosive gases (ask for a test sample overview). The P14 W longevity compared to other components in the market is good, especially when compared in high humidity conditions. This is the number one choice for companies intending to integrate the P14 W humidity sensor with their own electronics and calibration capabilities. It provides great stability and long lasting measurements, because of its water proof materials such as the ceramic body and proprietary polymer design. Applications are air ducts, RH+T transmitters as well as thermostats.

 

HYT calibrated digital RH+T


The HYT sensors are combined temperature and humidity digital modules. The sensors are calibrated and qualified under stringent procedures. A nine point calibration takes place to assure high accuracy over a wide temperature and humidity band width, while the right
materials provide longevity and satisfactory results not only on the data sheet. The HYT sensors are built on the IST AG flag ship P14 capacitor sensors. The sensor component as well as its surrounding materials are engineered to guarantee almost zero moisture absorption and to prevent misreading due to false water/moisture sources. The HYT’s
technology is provided in exposed sensor element versions, as well as two filter cap versions (mechanical protection) for simple integrations in air duct, compressed air transmitters and wall mount thermostats.
