Custom from the start
North Star Sensors can tailor resistance values, tolerances, encapsulation, lead configuration, and packaging to the application.
Probe design flexibility
Probe options range widely in housing style, sensing location, thermal coupling, and environmental sealing.
Three design priorities
Projects are guided by performance, suitability for the environment, and overall cost-effectiveness.
Given the wide range of temperature-sensing applications, it is a very common experience for customers not to find an “off-the-shelf” solution to a temperature application. North Star Sensors is willing to work with our customers and prospective customers to find the solution to their applications.
The following are typical custom, but not all, NTC thermistor options available: special temperature ranges, special coat size diameters, non-standard R25 values, point-matched at temperatures other than 25 °C, and non-standard lead lengths.
The options for temperature probe design are almost limitless. In all cases, we help our customers focus on the three most important design objectives: performance, suitability for environmental conditions, and cost-effectiveness.
If you already know your target performance window, environment, and cost constraints, the team can help translate those into a manufacturable part recommendation.
