Renewable energy

In the renewable energy sector, reliability and precision are essential to maximize energy output and system efficiency - especially in harsh outdoor environments. With their proven reliability and industry-leading performance, Temposonics® sensors play a critical role in the transition to clean energy - helping operators reduce downtime, extend system life, and achieve better ROI in renewable installations.

Key industry challenges:

  • Harsh outdoor environment
  • Hard-to-access locations (e.g. offshore turbines, desert solar fields)
  • Sensors must offer long-term stability, resistance against shock & vibration, and no recalibration requirements

Advantages:

  • Accurate position feedback
    Ensures precise control optimizing energy capture and efficiency in changing weather conditions
  • Non-contact, maintenance-free operation
    Our magnetostrictive technology eliminates mechanical wear, ensuring long-term performance with minimal maintenance - ideal for remote or hard-to-access installations
  • Rugged, environmental resilience
    Designed to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration, humidity, and EMI, making them perfect for demanding renewable applications
  • High repeatability & reliability
    Delivers consistent performance - critical for maintaining optimal positioning over years of operation
  • Compact, modular designs
    Support easy serviceability.
