Marine and Naval
Marine environments are harsh, saltwater, vibration, and temperature swings. Components must be sealed, rugged, and reliable in saltwater and high-humidity conditions. Standex Detect reed switches, sensors, and relays are built to thrive in these conditions, ensuring reliable operation from surface vessels to deep-sea ROVs.
Engineered for the Open Water: Marine-Grade Solutions for Navigation, Safety, and Control
Precision At Every Surface: Saltwater-Resistant, Sealed Components for Surface and Subsurface Systems
Marine and naval systems operate in some of the harshest environments on the planet, where exposure to saltwater, pressure, and vibration demands components that are both rugged and highly reliable. Whether above or below the surface, these systems must maintain operational integrity to support navigation, safety, and mission-critical control. Standex Detect offers sealed, corrosion-resistant reed switches, sensors, and relays engineered to perform in the demanding conditions of both commercial and defense maritime applications.
The following are core technology applications that enhance performance and safety in marine and naval systems:
Core Capabilities for Marine & Naval:
- Anchor position and winch monitoring: Hall sensors track deployment and retrieval.
- Navigation light status detection: Reed switches confirm circuit continuity.
- Fuel and ballast tank level sensing: Reed sensors offer corrosion-resistant monitoring.
- Engine room fire suppression: Relays and optocouplers trigger emergency systems.
- Hatch and porthole security: Reed switches detect open/closed status in watertight compartments.
