Ease-of-operation, safety and emissions, these factors all apply to the marine market when it comes to sensors and related systems. Driven by emission regulations and customer requirements, marine engines have to move in the direction of electronic engine control and management. Kavlico’s experience in the automotive and off-highway sectors provides a lineage to be leveraged by transferring our knowledge base to accommodate the needs of this market.
Our pressure sensors are capable of withstanding the corrosive salt-spray found at sea, and operate effectively in high shock and vibration environments. Rugged by design, the humidity tolerant sensors feature stainless steel, brass, or composite housings, dependent upon application requirements. Typical applications include BAP, MAP, and engine oil pressure sensors, whose uses are similar to those required in land-based vehicles.
Kavlico can supply the right sensor for every vessel, from small recreational runabouts or large sea-going tankers to personal watercraft and ferry boats, our sensors perform.
