Robust Solutions for Harshes Environments

When harsh environments are involved, ZF recommends appropriate packaging and sealing technology. Our packaging innovations have resulted in sensors that perform under extreme conditions: temperatures up to 150°C, immersion in solvents to IP68, and exposure to salt spray, dust, gravel and repeated thermal shock.

With ZF’s in-house stereolythography and prototype line, we can quickly provide a highly engineered design. We match the latest solid state magnetic sensor technologies to proprietary circuits capable of providing EMI, ESD, EMC and Conducted Immunity resistance tough enough to exceed automotive standards.

Quality Assurance

To simulate the wide range of environments that our products experience in the field, ZF’s testing facilities provide concept evaluation, design and product validation, and continuous conformance testing to international standards.

In-house high-density circuit board assembly assures the quality of our electronics. TS-16949 certified factories on multiple continents provide you with advantages in speed, cost and flexibility.
