SACS series
Climate seat sensor
The smart reduction of energy usage starts with accurate monitoring technology – and climate-controlled seats are no exception. Our sensor is integrated into the seat structure, above the seat cushion and directly beneath the cover material, where it monitors humidity and temperature levels in the immediate vicinity of the passenger. It communicates this information to the HVAC controller, which uses the data to optimize seat ventilation, reducing cool air requirements. With its fast response time, it provides advanced information before the occupant begins to sweat.
Features and benefits
Equipped with high-quality, calibrated digital relative humidity and temperature sensors, the SACS series is specifically designed for automotive applications, ensuring accurate and reliable performance even in the most challenging environments. By continuously monitoring cabin conditions, it enhances climate regulation, creating a consistently pleasant atmosphere for drivers and passengers.
Installation is effortless, thanks to a smart three-wire interface that integrates seamlessly into the seat’s wiring harness. This innovative design minimizes disruption to the vehicle’s electrical system, reducing installation time and complexity while maintaining optimal functionality.
Built with safety in mind, the SACS series features 15kV ESD protection, safeguarding components from electrostatic discharge during production and handling. This added layer of protection ensures long-term reliability and reduces the risk of damage, contributing to a durable, high-performance system that meets the demands of modern automotive engineering.
