SenSiC AB

The SenSiC’s gas sensor technology has been developed over 20 years of research at Linköping University (LiU) in Sweden and is based on the use of Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology for semiconductors, and long-term experience with combustion processes. SiC sensor technology has just recently become viable for commercial production of high volumes, and with the superior sensitivity for low ppm's it will support both Industry 4.0 standards as well as upcoming automotive and marine exhaust emissions legislations. Unlike other sensors on the market, the SenSiC sensors offer full functionality in very high temperatures and harsh environments and withstand thermal shocks. Because the sensor semiconductor chip is placed directly in the exhaust gases (in situ), the cooling delay is removed, and therefore, the response is quick. A single sensor unit can detect multiple gases as well as pressure and several sensor elements can be combined to multi sensors. Our sensors are used in high temperature applications to optimize combustion efficiency in the process industry, and to monitor exhaust gasses such as NOx and NH3
