News & product updates

Gill Sensors & Controls has been leading the market for robust, solid-state measurement technology since its formation as a separate business within the Gill Group in 2014. Gill Sensors & Controls has been providing some of the most exciting, accurate and reliable devices for challenging environments, with products based on the principle of no moving parts, ensuring they require virtually no maintenance, for a truly trusted ‘fit and forget’ solution.

Equipment wear monitoring sensors combined with IoT gives visibility of equipment condition straight to your device

Racing speed isn’t everything and many other factors must be embraced between the waving of the green and chequered flags. Gill’s Catch Tank oil level sensor contributes to the win by playing its own important role:

Gill’s race proven sensors have delivered yet again, helping motorsport teams and drivers throughout 2023 to achieve, not only poles and podiums but World Championship wins.

Continuous condition monitoring technique provides manufacturing plants the earliest alerts of wear in critical rotating equipment

Fantastic achievement by Saildrone to gain a Guinness World Record for the highest wind speed recorded by a USV. We're very proud to say they chose a Gill WindMaster 3-axis ultrasonic anemometer as part of their Saildrone platform to measure wind speed and direction.

We are very pleased to announce that Gill Group has been shortlisted in the Supply Chain Excellence category of the Manufacturer MX Awards 2023!

Low speed gearbox wear monitoring can be difficult with traditional CBM methods. Alternative wear detection strategies can provide early warnings. See case study

To ensure the flow of ocean data continues uninterrupted for weather forecasting, ocean drone company Saildrone, in collaboration with the NOAA’s National Data Buoy Center (NDBC), is sending two uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) into the Gulf of Mexico to collect data in two areas currently experiencing buoy outages.

Introducing Gill WearDetect - a condition-based monitoring tech that enhances uptime, safeguards assets, and predicts wear trends.

Wastewater level monitoring in sewage treatment plants requires a sensor that can reliably cope with sludge, strong fluid flow while exposed to the environment

Liquid level sensors with marine systems compatibility accurately monitor hovercraft critical fluids

The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will use the world's largest digital camera, requiring continuous refrigeration to -100°C. High performance liquid level sensors are required as part of this cooling system.
