Parker Hannifin announces the expansion of its SensoControl portfolio with a new generation of controllers and switches, further strengthening its position in intelligent monitoring and control for fluid power and industrial applications within automotive industrial manufacturing, off-road machinery for agriculture and power generation. The new, updated controller family delivers faster response times, higher measurement accuracy and robust IP67/industrial design to support more stable, efficient and reliable systems in demanding environments.
The extended SensoControl controller family includes four variants – SCLTSDI, SCLSDI, SCTSDI and SCTSDI-Modular – covering a wide range of pressure, level, temperature and process monitoring tasks, from compact standalone use to modular, scalable system designs. All variants share a standardized platform with VDMA-based menu navigation, harmonized parameter structures and IO-Link as standard, making it easier for OEMs and end users to implement consistent, future-ready architectures. In parallel, the additional 0 – 10V output option ensures straightforward integration into established analogue systems, while the robust, industrial-grade design across the entire range enables reliable operation in diverse applications and markets worldwide.
SCLTSDI is a combined digital level and temperature switch with IO-Link, multiple probe lengths up to 1000mm and analogue (0–20/4–20mA) plus the new 0–10V output option for highly flexible tank monitoring. This makes it particularly suitable for industrial and mobile hydraulic tanks where both level and temperature must be monitored precisely in a single compact device. SCLSDI is a digital level-only switch with IO-Link, various installation lengths and optional analogue/0–10V output, providing a cost-efficient, easy-to-integrate solution when temperature is measured separately – for example in distribution, OEM machinery and power generation reservoirs where simple, reliable level detection is key.
SCTSDI is a digital temperature switch with an integrated probe in several lengths, IO-Link and fast, precise temperature monitoring for direct installation in the process. Its robust industrial design helps ensure stable operation in applications such as air and gas compressors, industrial machinery and automotive test stands where accurate, dynamic temperature control is essential. SCTSDI-Modular is a modular temperature switch for PT1000 sensors, offering a wide temperature range, a compact IP67 housing and IO-Link connectivity for robust, decentralised temperature control. This modular approach supports flexible integration into agricultural and mobile equipment, as well as distributed thermal management in power generation and larger industrial systems.
