Switches & Sensors for Aerospace & Defence

Honeywell is a leading supplier to engine and auxiliary power unit (APU) manufacturers for fuel, air, and lubrication systems to meet the needs of on-engine sensing and interface for FADEC/DEEC control systems.

  • Temperature sensors
  • Position transducers
  • Speed sensors
  • Oil level sensors
  • Pressure and level switches

These products are also used in engine valves and hydraulic systems: position and sensing products with enhanced reliability and temperature/vibration performance. Honeywell engineers have industry-wide expertise in the design and integration of switch and sensor assemblies for engine control systems.

Honeywell maintains relevant approvals: ISO 9000; 2000; AS 9100; QS 9000; EASA21 subpart G; EASA 145; ISO 14000; FAA-certified Rep

Proximity Sensors

General Aerospace Proximity Sensors (GAPS) & Harsh Aerospace Proximity Sensors (HAPS),

General Aerospace Proximity Sensors (GAPS) and Harsh Aerospace Proximity Sensors (HAPS), incorporate Honeywell’s patented Integrated Health Monitoring functionality, however the products have some technical differences that allow them to be used in various aerospace applications.

GAPS can be used in less harsh areas of application with some differences of electrical and environmental characteristics when compared to HAPS. Whilst, HAPS Aerospace Proximity Sensors are configurable, non-contact, hermetically sealed devices designed to sense the presence or absence of a target in harsh-duty aircraft applications.

Resolver & Precision Pots

Variable transformers in which both rotor and stator usually have two phase windings mechanically displaced by 90°. Typically sine and cosine channel outputs. Provide non-contact measurement for 360° sensing, enhanced accuracy, resolution, and repeatability. Often used in ATOM – gunners site position (azimuth and elevation), forward looking radar, missile guidance, solar panel position, and antenna position apps
