Smart sensors are devices which integrate in a single object all the functional components required for the acquisition and the long-distance transmission of chemical and physical quantities.

Intelligent sensors are typically applied in the monitoring of chemical and physical quantities of liquids and gases, more precisely in the acquisition of pressure, temperature and vibration data, or the chemical analysis in terms of measurement of any odourants or contaminants, especially in city gas and drinkable water.

The picture shows TUBE-T3, a gas pressure and temperature monitoring device, ATEX certified; it is widely used to monitor network pressure in the field of transportation and distribution of liquids and gases.
