About GEKON Trading
GEKON Trading GmbH, based in Hanau, around 20 kilometres east of Frankfurt am Main, specialises in electrical thermometry. The company manufactures temperature sensor elements in the form of thermocouples and platinum resistance sensors, which are produced in cleanrooms using modern manufacturing technology. The platinum resistance sensor is applied as a wire or as a thin film onto a carrier body and connected with lead wires made of precious metal. The resistance sensors are vibration-resistant and suitable for use under extreme operating conditions. A wide variety of types is available for different applications, differing in measuring range, shape and the number of resistors applied to the carrier body. The company offers customised solutions and service for national and international customers and responds to enquiries within one working day.
