Remote sensing
G-Power Remote Sensing series are the latest and highest-powered addition to this company's sensor line. The series can support up to eight tool-mounted sensors, and also provides a rectangular head version for difficult mounting situations. The product's design eliminates slip rings, which are prone to damage and corrosion, and provides a connector-less hook-up to transmit power and signals.
