Market Highlights
A pressure sensor is a device that detects pressure and converts it into an electric signal whose magnitude is proportional to the applied pressure. After that, the data is displayed and calibrated in order to alert the pilot. The cost of a pressure sensor is the highest of any type of aircraft sensor. Pressure and temperature sensors are two of the most commonly used sensor types in aircraft for a variety of applications. Pressure sensors are widely used in hydraulic systems for braking, moving control surfaces, lowering and raising landing gears, etc. They are also used in APUs, cabins, and galleys. Pressure sensors in aircraft are classified into three types: differential pressure sensors, absolute pressure sensors, and gauge pressure sensors.
After three difficult years (2019-2021), the aerospace industry is gradually moving back on track. The industry is still encircled by several geopolitical challenges, which are putting pressure on the supply chain along with market demand. Despite these challenges, Stratview still predicts impressive growth in the next couple of years, followed by sequential growth in the mid to long-term. Overall, the aircraft pressure sensors market is likely to record a promising CAGR of 10.6% in the long run to reach US$ 1.04 Billion in 2028.

Based on the aircraft type, the aircraft pressure sensors market is segmented into commercial aircraft, general aviation, regional aircraft, military aircraft, helicopter, and unmanned aerial vehicles. Commercial aircraft is expected to remain the dominant aircraft type in the market during the forecast period owing to the increasing air passenger traffic coupled with an expected increase in production rates of key aircraft programs. Pressure sensors are deployed in several crucial sections of commercial aircraft such as landing gear, engine, cabin, and flight control systems.
Based on the sensor type, the market is segmented into differential pressure sensor, absolute pressure sensor, and gauge pressure sensor. Differential pressure sensor is expected to remain the dominant as well as the fastest-growing sensor type in the market during the forecast period as these sensors have a pressure-sensitive component that allows them to detect, watch over, and measure the pressure being applied at their ends. It provides an aid in acquiring the data required for the system in order to give the reader broader information. It also includes electronic components for transforming the calculated information into an output signal.
Based on the application type, the market is segmented as engine; landing gears, wheels & brakes; flight control systems; cabin, cargo & ECS; and others. Engine is expected to remain the dominant application type in the market during the forecast period, owing to the high usage of pressure sensors in the compressor, turbine, and gearbox section.
In terms of regions, North America is expected to remain the largest market for aircraft pressure sensors during the forecast period. The region, especially the USA, is the manufacturing hub of the aerospace industry with the presence of a large number of industry stakeholders, such as aircraft and aero-engine OEMs, tier players, and raw material suppliers. This has led the region as the forerunner of the aircraft industry. On the other hand, Asia-Pacific is set to grow at the highest rate in the years to come, propelled by several factors among which the opening of assembly plants of key OEMs and high focus on the development of aircraft programs indigenously are the major ones.
