Standard products
solve many applications challenges, and we offer only the
finest quality standard products to ensure our customers
enjoy the results they expect..., reliably. SENTRAN uses
premium-grade components, materials and processes exclusively
in crafting our products. Our transducer elements are constructed
of 4340 alloy tool steel, 17-4 ph stainless steel and 2024
aluminum. All materials are specially heat treated to provide
strength, durability and performance. Many of these processes
are proprietary and unique to SENTRAN.
Premium Product - Value Price.
SENTRAN recognizes that name
brand subcomponents and compounds with field proven performance
generally yield the best performance. The up-front costs
are somewhat higher, but the end result is a high value
SENTRAN product that provides worry-free operation and very
low maintenance costs. This commitment is consistent with
SENTRAN's corporate philosophy, and our market position
strategy of "Premium Product - Value Price". Our
industry-leading "Product-Focused" manufacturing
processes and assembly techniques not only ensure consistent
quality, these cost-efficient methods improve throughput,
reduce rework and shorten delivery lead times to our customers.
The quality commitment
we hold ourselves to can be
exemplified by our standard transducer-grade cable. Many
factors contribute to the optimization of our standard measurements-grade
cables. These cables are constructed of "twisted pair"
excitation and signal conductors to minimize the effects
of temperature and signal-to-noise phenomenon. Few people
realize that the single most common failure mode for a load
cell is "cable damage". Most of our products are
fitted with our MIL Spec. 22 gauge, four-conductor cable
with a double Mylar® wrap, a 98%+ coverage
tinned-copper, braided shield and a high-resilience, black
polyurethane jacket. Why polyurethane instead of the more
common PVC (Poly Vinyl Chloride) jacket material? Because
polyurethane is far superior in cut and abrasion resistance,
and for moisture protection.
Delivery
lead time is an important
element in satisfying customer requirements. SENTRAN
stocks a large volume of standard products to meet immediate
delivery requirements. High volume products and customer-driven
designs are delivered per the customer's schedules. We pride
ourselves on being extraordinarily responsive to customers
needs, and delivery is no exception. Prototype, non-standard
and O.E.M. programs are consistently delivered on a "quick
turn" basis. Tell us what your unique requirements
are, and we will work with you to meet your needs.
Performance certifications
provide excellent credentials
for defining a products character. We have made a considerable
investment in our personnel and manufacturing facilities
to incorporate state-of-the-art equipment dedicated to the
production of strain gage-based transducers. Many of our
products require certification by national and international
government regulatory agencies for integration into "legal-for-trade"
applications. Therefore, our laboratory test centers are
traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) to ensure the highest standards for quality and performance
are built into each transducer. This level of competence,
and our commitment to maintaining a close working relationship
with our customers, allows us to guarantee our customers
total satisfaction with our company, and with every product
we manufacture!
