Feedback for quarterturn actuators to ATEX category 3G.
 
 

 
Dual sensor with AS-i interface for applications in bioethanol plants.
  • Inductive dual sensor for hazardous gas areas, zone 2.
  • Installation on actuators to VDI/ VDE 3845.
  • Solenoid valve connection integrated into the sensor.
  • Peripheral fault / communication error indication with wire break monitoring.
  • Easy wiring and set-up.
Applications in hazardous gas areas
The inductive dual sensor meets the requirements of the ATEX category 3G for hazardous zone 2 areas.

Optimum protection against mechanical stress
The metal housing provides the maximum protection of the sensor and connectors against external mechanical damage. Impact resistance was tested at 4 joules to EN 60079-0: 2006.

Additional diagnosis
Incidents such as short circuit or wire break can be evaluated separately on the output via two data bits to obtain selected service information.
