What is the average lifespan of a hot runner sensor?

A hot runner sensor's typical lifespan varies significantly between different product grades and is closely correlated with its product location and operation conditions:

Product Placement

Average Life Expectancy

Appropriate Situations

Model for Domestic General Use

1-2 years

Injection molding with low precision

High-End Domestic/Imported General-Use Model

two to three years

Standard precision criteria for industrial injection molding

High-end, imported models that are resistant to corrosion, such as the Kistler 6125A

3–4 years

Processing caustic materials at high temperatures and precise injection molding

The lifespan will be reduced by three to six months when processing highly corrosive and high-temperature materials like PEEK and fluoroplastics; however, the lifespan can be extended by three to six months with correct installation, routine calibration, and maintenance.
