LATEST MONITRAN VIBRATION SENSORS ARE DESIGNED FOR HAZARDOUS AREAS
Monitran has launched its latest IS family of intrinsically safe accelerometers, or vibration sensors, for use in a wide range of applications in Group I and Group II hazardous areas. Designed, developed and manufactured by the company in the UK, the new accelerometers incorporate a number of features that will help end users in the petrochemical, quarrying and mining industries improve the reliability, performance and safety of operating equipment.
The latest IS family of products includes the 1107IC, 1100IC and 1185IC. Each has full ATEX and EEx approval, is constructed throughout from stainless steel and is sealed to IP67. In addition, each accelerometer uses proven Monitran sensor technology, to ensure a long and stable operating life, and has been designed so that it is simple to install, set up and use, without the need for recalibration or regular maintenance.
Perhaps as importantly, the 1185IC has a 4-20mA output and can be interfaced easily with standard data collection devices, enabling it to be used in real-time alarm and monitoring systems. By comparison, the 1107IC and 1100IC can be interfaced through conventional safety barrier systems and are supplied with a choice of mounting, connector and cable options; the latter, for example, includes high temperature resistant stainless steel over-braided PTFE.
Typical applications for the IS accelerometers include the measurement of acceleration, velocity and bearing condition in a wide range of equipment, including pumps, fans, motors and gearboxes on compressors, boring and conveying equipment, earth moving machinery and offshore drilling rigs.
