Monitran has introduced a new family of safe vibration sensors meeting with the latest approval for ATEX Group I and II. The MTN/1100I series offers a wide choice of models to suit a variety of applications throughout industry, in particular oil, petrochemical, gas, mining and other hazardous zone areas. One of the new designs now offers a side entry connector or cable together with a low profile housing for fitting into those awkward places where space is limited. The new range allows engineers to monitor vibration levels of pumps, fans, compressors, motors, conveyors, drilling rigs and all types of rotating machinery which are in potentially explosive operating conditions. This covers environments of inflammable gases, fumes, chemicals, powders and dusts found in many industries. Each unit has full ATEX and Eex certification and like most of Monitran sensors is constructed throughout in stainless steel, welded and sealed to IP67. Depending on the chosen model, frequency responses of 2Hz to 10kHz are available with operating temperature ranges covering a maximum of -55 to 90C.
