Embedded Sensing Technologies
Measurement Specialties knows how to support OEMs
Measurement Specialties (MEAS) designs and manufactures
sensors that measure pressure/force, position, vibration,
temperature, humidity and fluid properties. Used as embedded
devices by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) or as stand
alone sensors for test and measurement, our products are critical
for monitoring, feedback and control. We are the heart of many
everyday products and provide a vital link to the physical world.
MEAS is an applications company and understands that
embedded means custom. Our portfolio includes technologies
capable of measuring most physical characteristics and allows
us to design the right sensor for the right application. Physical
property, electrical input/output and packaged configuration
are all considerations when developing products that meet our
Measurement Specialties is
committed to building the most
comprehensive sensor portfolio
in the industry. Acquired
companies in the Measurement
Specialties family include:
customers’ needs.
We have expanded our technology portfolio and geographic reach
in part, through the acquisition of strategically complimentary
companies. Our operations in US, Europe and China provide
resources close to our customers. This global footprint allows us
to offer the lowest cost of ownership to OEMs.
Our business is understanding your sensing needs and developing
a solution that meets your performance and cost objectives. At
MEAS, we are Sensing Your World.

Measurement Specialties has been a pioneer in the
design and manufacture of ultra-low cost OEM load
cells. Initially designed for use in high-volume digital
bathroom scales, MEAS has developed a line of low
cost load cells that allow OEMs across a variety of
industries to incorporate direct force measurement into
their products. Based on our proprietary piezoresistive
silicon strain gauge (MicrofusedTM) technology, our load
cells combine outstanding durability and long term
stability in an extremely low cost package, perfectly
suited for medium and high volume applications.
Our load cells our tailored for the specific customer
application, including custom packaging and electronics
with analog or digital outputs, suited for both low and
high force environments.

Components
Magneto-Resistive
Anisotropic Magneto Resistive or AMR sensors offer robust non contact measurement of changes in the angle of the magnetic
field as seen by the sensor. This effect allows for the creation of sensors that can detect disturbance in extremely weak fields,
as found in traffic detection sensors, to strong field sensors that are used in precision encoders.

Piezo Film
Dynamic Strain Gage Sensors
Piezoelectric fluoropolymer film produces voltage or charge proportional to strain. Exceptionally high strain sensitivity (15 mV/μ ); in-plane
strain bandwidth from < 0.1Hz to >100KHz, ultrasound transmit and receive functionality to >100MHz, and dynamic range of 280dB characterize
the very unique capabilities of Piezo Film. A highly versatile enabling sensor technology, Piezo Film and Piezo Cable are available in continuous
format up to 1km in length. Piezo Film has thin cross section (28μm-110μm), is flexible, very robust, chemically inert, and can withstand
temperatures up to 125°C. Piezo Film is also pyroelectric, capable of generating > 8V/°C. The simple printing with conductive ink defines the
active electrode areas which may be easily customized to give either single elements or complex arrays.

Properties
Based on our patented tuning fork technology, our
Fluid Property sensors measure density, viscosity
and dielectric constant of most liquids. Our sensors
are designed to operate under various pressure, flow
and temperature conditions, and utilize sophisticated
