Posital has extended its TILTIX family of inclinometers (tilt sensors) to include explosion-proof models designed to operate safely in environments that contain potentially dangerous levels of explosive dust or gases. The devices have been certified in compliance with IECEx and ATEX directives and are suitable for use in mines, oil and gas facilities, agricultural applications, chemical plants, woodworking factories and milling operations.
The inclinometers are available in single (0–360°) or dual-axis (±80°) versions and feature resolution as high as 0.044° and 0.1° accuracy. Available communications interfaces include DeviceNet, CANopen, Modbus RTU, SSI and analog output. Analog models can be programmed so that a predetermined range of mechanical motion is set to span the full electrical output range. Rugged aluminium and 316 stainless steel housings are offered, with other materials available by special order.
The products have been certified to the following ATEX ratings: Group I (mining) Ex I M2 Ex e mb I Mb; Group II (above ground operations) EX II 2G Ex e mb IIc TX Gb (explosive gases); and EX II 1D Ex ta IIIC TX Da IP65 (flammable dust).
