SENSORS
Fundamental components for process control, Gefran’s sensors measure main variables such as temperature, pressure, position and force. The main element of the sensors is produced in cleanrooms, in environments protected from any kind of pollutant and equipped with highly technological work and control instruments.
COMPONENTS
Three product lines are dedicated to indicate and check process variables: static groups, regulators and electronic indicators. A range of constantly evolving devices capable of providing innovative solutions and responding to the needs of process optimization and intelligent management of energy consumption. These devices complete the range of support services and speed up delivery terms, the key factors that make Gefran a competitive and reliable partner.
AUTOMATION PLATFORMS
