Sensors for Condition Monitoring in Hazardous Areas

IMI Sensors, a division of PCB Piezotronics, is a global designer and manufacturer of industrial vibration monitoring instrumentation such as accelerometers, vibration transmitters and switches. These industrial sensors are used to spot imbalance, bearing faults and misalignment by measuring machine vibration, providing early fault diagnosis thus reducing downtime. Our vast product line interfaces directly with data acquisition equipment including online systems and handheld data collectors.

A potentially explosive environment in an industrial facility can exist as a result of flammable gases, mist, vapors or combustible dust.

Our line of sensors - accelerometers, vibration transmitters and pressure sensors - exist to drive the selection according to the international system governing equipment, being the one accepted and based on local certification system! ATEX, IECEx, and much more.

In addition, our line of sensors offers the SIL certification that attests to the Safety Integrity Level of the components. This in industrial systems with increasingly high automation is often a contractual requirement, a sign of considerable advantage for the end user. The SIL certificate is also an international certificate, which is a direct way to communicate universally a higher degree of reliability of the product.
