World Temperature Sensors and Transmitters Market
Frost & Sullivan, Nov 2009, Pages: 236
This Frost & Sullivan research service titled World Temperature Sensors and Transmitters Market provides an overview of the worldwide market for different temperature technologies, devices and end-user segments in terms of revenues. The revenue analysis focuses on end users and geographic regions, along with a complete analysis of key market drivers and technology trends that impact the growth of the global market. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following: infrared temperature sensors, thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors (RTD), thermisters, integrated circuits (IC), and transmitters.
Market Overview
Proliferating Applications Energize World Temperature Sensors and Transmitters Market
Although the world temperature sensors and transmitters market is mature, there are many competing technologies that are exhibiting high growth prospects. Temperature is the most monitored parameter and plays a major role in various end-user applications, especially in hazardous ones. Deployments span medical, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), metals, food and beverages (F&B), automotives, and continuous-process applications. Temperature sensing has been growing steadily in importance, playing a vital role in industrial and R&D settings as well. 'Every year, companies plough in large investments into focused researches and development to improve existing temperature sensor functionality and develop newer high precision and intelligent ones,' notes the analyst of this research service. 'These efforts have the twin objective of boosting demand for various temperature sensor systems and expanding its penetration into newer application areas.'
The vagaries in climate observed in the European region have necessitated the use of HVAC modules and consequently fuelled the demand for temperature sensors. Temperature sensors and transmitters are integral parts of the HVAC module and are increasingly being fitted in climate control units as well as for monitoring refrigerant temperatures. This is true for all types of HVAC modules that are designed and manufactured for diverse applications in industrial applications, building automation, and automotives. Advances in technology, coupled with a drop in price, have introduced new applications for HVAC modules. The market for HVAC modules is currently bigger, encompassing a variety of industrial and military applications.
Due to the growing number of new entrants, the temperature sensors and transmitters market is highly fragmented. Pricing remains a key criterion while choosing a supplier. 'With the temperature sensors market reaching commodity status and prices expected to decline further, reaching material cost, suppliers are likely to be pressurized further,' says the analyst. 'This has resulted in the temperature sensors market being highly competitive.' The market is characterized by the presence of many manufacturers in every end-user and geographic segment. Considering that temperature measurement is a vital parameter in almost any process as a consequence the temperature sensors and transmitters has achieved deep market penetration. This is affecting growth opportunities for most sensor manufacturers. Additionally, volume discounting in the case of low-priced sensors is contributing to this restraint. Price competition also remains a serious issue in the emerging economies, especially in countries such as China. Temperature sensor manufacturers recognize the growth potential of these emerging markets and are resorting to low pricing to penetrate them. Price and not technology was often the most important factor in sensor specification in many of these markets. To sustain market demand high precision, ease of integration and competency are prerequisites in products. It has become imperative for companies to redefine their strategies to provide customers with instruments with easy operability and a very high level of reliability, keeping critical applications, high temperature environments, and portability in mind.
