Interlink Electronics, Inc. Announces Breakthrough, Industry-first Odor Sensors at CES 2025

The Company will also showcase other cutting-edge advancements in electrochemical gas sensing

IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Interlink Electronics, Inc. (Nasdaq: LINK), a world-leading provider of sensors and printed electronic solutions that support a wide range of applications, including Human-Machine Interface ("HMI"), environmental sensing, and IoT devices, is thrilled to introduce a significant addition to its broad portfolio of electrochemical gas sensors and systems. The 110-37x family of sensors offers the breakthrough capability of sensing TBM (Tert-Butyl Mercaptan) as well as the capability to detect a secondary compound called THT (Tetra-Hydrothiophene). These compounds are routinely added to natural gas supply pipelines to give a detectable odor to odorless Methane, the primary component in natural gas. This practice is aimed at enhancing the safety of the natural gas supply by making any leakages easier to smell, whether in domestic, commercial, or industrial settings.

These sensors will be on display at Booth 50718 at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, NV, from January 7 to 10, 2025. This prestigious event brings together industry leaders, innovators, and experts from the electronics domain, offering a unique platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and exploring the latest advancements in this critical space.

"We are very pleased that our team can deliver this breakthrough family of TBM and THT sensors based on innovative electrochemistry technology and materials. We have successfully preserved Interlink's proven advantages of high performance, small size, and cost competitiveness in this family as well," said Dr. Sreeni Rao, Vice President of Product Management at Interlink Electronics. "Even though TBM and THT gases are 'smellable', an automated and reliable way to detect these gases is very much needed wherever natural gas is consumed. This solution will be quite attractive to commercial and domestic users, as well as to gas utilities and gas producers that are looking to make their products safer."

"Through our portfolio of gas and environmental sensors, Interlink is committed to providing solutions that enhance safety and security in domestic and commercial settings," added Steven N. Bronson, CEO and President of Interlink Electronics. "The introduction of this family of industry-first odor sensing products once again establishes Interlink Electronics as a leader in gas sensing innovation."
