LAPP Automaatio, which began the EPIC® SENSORS temperature sensors production in 1995, has recently made a significant investment in calibration services. 

Lapp Automation is the leading temperature measurement specialist in Finland. In many industrial sectors and at various process stages, it is important to know the exact temperatures. Lapp Automation has now added a new temperature sensor to its product range.

In September 2022, Ex i certification was granted for EPIC^® SENSORS temperature sensors. Ex i certified temperature sensors can be used in explosive environments. Uncertified sensors can also be used in Ex i circuits, but the use of certified sensors is much clearer and safer.

LAPP Group organizes an international employee event in Helsinki at Bolt Arena from 30 June to 2 July.
