Aerospace and Military

Long development cycles and high qualification costs require aerospace firms to identify stable, reliable, cost-effective partners. Measurement Specialties’ AS9100 certified plants in Virginia, Ohio, France, and China support various Tier 1, 2, and 3 providers with a wide variety of critical sensor solutions for aerospace applications.

Some of the aerospace equipment we supply sensors for include:

• Engine Thrust Reverser--Rugged linear position sensors provide feedback to the cockpit to ensure thrust reversers have properly deployed.
• Satellite/Space--Measurement Specialties is the only sensor company who maintains both NASA and ESA qualifications. Our interchangeable glass encapsulated thermistor is the standard for all aerospace hi-reliability applications.
• Airspeed Measurement--Low pressure differential sensors are used in the pitot tube to measure air speed.
• Gearbox Monitoring--High frequency accelerometers are used for critical Health and Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS) for Helicopters.
