For distance measurement and object detection in hazardous or explosive environments, Migatron Corp. has introduced a new sensor, the Migatron RPS-429AA-40P-IS2. It meets intrinsic safety standards, making it suitable for use by engineers and professionals operating in such conditions.
This sensor meets ATEX, IECEx, and C-UL-US intrinsic safety standards and supports distance and level measurements in industrial environments. It is enclosed in an IP66/IP67 rated housing and uses a 4-20mA two-wire current loop design.
Migatron Corp.’s ultrasonic sensors, including the RPS-429AA-40P-IS2, are designed for accurate distance measurement in industrial settings. The sensor is certified for intrinsic safety and is approved for use in hazardous locations including Zone 0–2 and 20–22, and Class I, II, and III environments.
Key features
- Intrinsically safe certifications: ATEX, IECEx, and C-UL-US
- Input voltage: 14-30 VDC
- Short circuit and reverse polarity protection
- Wide temperature range with temperature compensation
- Self-contained sensor
- PVC enclosure
- Analog current output 4-20 mA 2-wire version
Migatron offers a range of ultrasonic sensors, including models certified as intrinsically safe for use in hazardous locations and explosive atmospheres. The sensors meet ANZEx, ATEX, IECEx and C-UL-US standards and are used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, mining and wastewater for applications in Class I, Division 1 and Zone 0 environments.
