Based on sensor type, the aeroderivative sensor market is segmented into accelerometer, temperature sensor, vibration sensor, pressure sensor, and flame sensor. The flame sensor segment accounted for a major share of around 9% in 2022 and is expected to grow at a rapid rate till 2032. Flame sensors detect and monitor flames in aeroderivative systems to ensure personnel & equipment safety. By monitoring the presence of a flame, these sensors can trigger safety measures such as cutting off the gas flow or activating the fire extinguisher in the event of a fire or other accident. Flame retardants are used to prevent such accidents. Flame sensors monitor the combustion quality and stability of aeroderivative engines. They help operators optimize parameters, increase fuel efficiency, and reduce emissions by providing real-time feedback on flame characteristics such as intensity and shape. The need for flame sensors stems from the desire to obtain efficient & environment-friendly processes in aeroderivative systems. The increasing integration of flame sensors into advanced control & automation solutions is fueling their demand.
