In the following examples of applications, our products are being used with great success:
MAHLE Behr
Development and testing of air conditioning components for the automobile industry. The extremely high demands for efficiency make it necessary when measuring heat levels to ensure a very precise recording of temperatures. For this reason, our modules have been employed in this area for several years.
German Weather Service (DWD)
The weather stations installed throughout the country have to deliver reliable measurement values at all extremes of external temperature. Whether in the winter in the Alps or in the summer at the seaside, Gantner modules are used by the DWD to produce accurate measurements, whatever the ambient temperature.
Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Institute for Plasma Physics
The development of the fusion facility Wendelstein 7X would be impossible without reliable and precise temperature recording. Our modules are also used in this project, as there are no comparable alternatives on the market.
The following are the most important characteristics of the module A105, which is available as Q.bloxx for top hat rail mounting, as a mobile system Q.brixx or in a 19″ version:
- 4 galvanically separated input channels for Pt100, Pt1000 and for resistance measurement
- Measurement precision
0.05 °C - Temperature stability
0.02 °C per 10 °K change
in ambient temperature - Analog/digital conversion
24 bit - Filter, linearization, min/max and alarm independently configurable for each channel
- Versions can be provided for special sensors, for example cryosensors (TVO, Cernox)

EtherCAT performance combined with industry leading DAQ: 5 benefits you’re missing out on
We have compiled a list of the 5 most significant benefits of using an EtherCAT-based data acquisition system. If you’re not already familiar with EtherCAT, prepare to be enlightened. If you’re among the many engineers that use EtherCAT in your testing lab then you can consider this a confirmation of why you do what you do – and an excellent place to direct those who still think Industrial Ethernet is not suitable for high-performance testing applications.

In 2014 Gantner Instruments GmbH moved into its new, energy-efficient company building in Schruns. The modern building with an area of 1000 m² has been designed from the beginning to offer the possibility of extension. This option was used in 2017 by the company, which has a steady double-digit growth per year since its inception.

Monitoring volcano activity is an important issue in the mitigation of natural hazards. Recently, most fatal issues occurred on volcanoes with low-energy and moderate activity, making them attractive touristic places (e.g., the 2014 Mount Ontake eruption in Japan). For these types of volcanoes, monitoring involves multiphysics measurements on dense networks. Distributed networks of sensors must be easily adapted to the volcano’s evolving state and the appearance of new active areas like fumaroles or high heat flux in the soil.
