Thermistor Sensors for Humidity, Airflow and Water-Level Detection
In humidity detection, wind speed detection, and water level detection applications, thermistor sensors operate by passing a current through the thermistor element to generate self-heating. The degree of cooling varies depending on the surrounding humidity, airflow, or water level, enabling these conditions to be accurately detected.
Shibaura Electronics’ thermistor sensors help monitor changes in equipment operating conditions and surrounding environments, contributing to stable control in air conditioning systems, household appliances, and industrial equipment.
We also provide flexible sensor designs and assembly processing tailored to specific operating environments and installation requirements.


Shibaura Electronics’ thermistor sensors offer the following features ideally suited for humidity, wind speed, and water level detection applications:
- By utilizing the difference in cooling effects on a self-heated thermistor element caused by surrounding air or liquid, the sensors can accurately detect changes in humidity, airflow velocity, and water level.
- Highly sensitive thermistor elements with low thermal mass respond quickly to changes in environmental conditions, enabling stable and precise detection relative to reference conditions.
- Suitable for air conditioning systems, household appliances, and industrial equipment, the sensors can be customized through optimization of thermistor element size, placement, protective structures, and assembly configurations according to the measurement target, flow path design, and installation environment.
