System Details
AMETEK Sensors & Fluid Management Systems (SFMS) supplies rugged sensing technologies for aircraft Health and Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS) that capture vibration, acceleration, speed, temperature, pressure, and accumulated structural usage across engines, rotor systems, and airframes. The portfolio includes inertial and piezoelectric accelerometers, fatigue meters, speed sensors, RTDs, thermocouples, and pressure sensors that provide the data used for condition-based maintenance.
- Vibration, acceleration, speed, temperature, pressure, and usage sensing
- Accelerometer, fatigue meter, speed sensor, RTD, thermocouple, and pressure capabilities
- Data that supports condition-based and predictive maintenance programs
- Configurations for commercial, military, business, and rotorcraft platforms
Effective health and usage monitoring begins at the sensing interface and continues through signal conditioning and data capture. AMETEK SFMS combines vibration and load measurement, environmental qualification, and in-house design, manufacturing, and calibration capabilities to deliver reliable condition and usage data that improves availability, supports maintenance decisions, and reduces lifecycle costs.
