Sensors and Accessories

Dynamic Ratings offers a wide variety of sensors to monitor the condition of electrical apparatus. We have patented designs, and manufacture our line of sensors to ensure that the highest quality and accuracy requirements are consistently achieved. These sensors and accessories convert the measured properties into a signal readily used by a transducer or an intelligent device such as a Dynamic Ratings Monitoring System.

Our sensors are designed to be highly sensitive and accurate to meet the needs of our customer’s applications. DR sensors and accessories exceed industry standards for quality and performance coupled with ease of installation.
