Mouser has agreed on a new global distribution deal with Innovative Sensor Technology IST AG. With over 30 years of experience, the company's suite of precision sensor solutions includes platinum and nickel thick- and thin-film RTD temperature sensors, biosensors, thermal mass flow sensors, humidity sensors, conductivity sensors, and more.

The company stocks the latest Innovative Sensor Technology products, including the new PW Series platinum resistive temperature devices. These class A sensors integrate the accuracy and precision of wire-wound sensors with the advantages of thin-film sensors, providing robustness, small dimensions, cost-effectiveness, and low hysteresis. Compared to a typical thin-film sensor measuring up to +300C, these sensors boost performance, measuring with high accuracy (class A) with a wider operating temperature range from -200C to +600C. The sensors are also offered in round ceramic housing with the exact dimensions as a conventional wire-wound sensor, delivering easy interchangeability into existing temperature applications.

The 600C Series platinum sensors with wire are designed for high temperatures (-200C to +600C) while delivering long-term stability. These sensors are vibration and temperature-shock resistant, delivering low self-heating and fast response time. Additional features include 100-Ohm to 2000-Ohm nominal resistance at 0C, 3850ppm/K characteristics curve, and a Pt-cladded Ni-wire connection with 0.2mm diameter.

Innovative Sensor Technology Gas Flow Sensors are optimised for measuring gas flow and direction for automotive, air conditioning, medical, and building automation applications. The product portfolio features thermal mass flow sensors based on anemometric and calorimetric principles like the MFS02, SFS01, FS2T, and FS7 series. Depending on the series, these sensors provide a response time as low as <0.5ms.

The company's HYT digital humidity and temperature modules are excellent for general-purpose humidity applications, offering low hysteresis, drift, and high humidity stability. The modules are fully calibrated and temperature compensated, have an I2C protocol for easy integration, and are available with an exposed sensor or a glob-top version.
