About UsAST
“The mission of American Sensor Technologies, Inc. is to be “your sensor business partner...” American Sensor Technologies, Inc. (AST) was incorporated in New Jersey on January 9, 1997, by Richard E. Tasker, Michael P. Eldredge and Karmjit S. Sidhu, for the purpose of developing MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical Structures) pressure sensor products with their proprietary Krystal Bond™ Technology.
The dynamics of AST’s technologies allow its pressure sensing element to be packaged in virtually an unlimited number of configurations along with offering millivolt output pressure sensors, amplified voltage pressure transducers, or current output pressure transmitters. Products can be offered from our standard catalog or modified into a semi-custom or custom package for OEM applications.
AST manufactures its pressure sensor products and related items under an ISO 9001:2008 certified quality system.
“American Sensor Technologies, Inc. will meet or exceed customer expectations for quality, delivery and performance. We will meet applicable regulatory requirements. We are committed to growing, improving and enhancing our processes, products and people.”

Key Industry FeaturesUHV / Cryogenic
AST manufactures pressure
transducers and transmitters to
measure Ultra-High Vacuum to positive
pressures up to 4,000 bar with no
welds, O-rings, or oil-filled cavities.
Macro Sensors LVDT position sensors
can be designed to withstand
pressures up to 20,000 PSI to measure
pressure within process equipment.
AST pressure sensors and Macro Sensors
position sensors are trusted in some
of the world’s harshest environments.
Products have been independently
tested for use in radiation, magnetic
fields, and automotive conditions with
continued long-term operation.
Pressure and position sensors are
manufactured to withstand cryogenic
gas temperatures as well as high
temperature processing environments
with high accuracy and stability.
