Safety sensors for dusty environments
The Telemecanique Sensors range of sensors for hazardous dust atmospheres comply with the global international standard IECEx and the latest European ATEX directive. By choosing a Telemecanique Sensors product for your dust machine application, you are choosing a sensor that has been tested and certified to perform in a manner that meets these very stringent safety standards.
The Zone System
ATEX (defined by AT: atmosphere and EX: explosive), IECEx and NEC 506 all use the same safety concept called the zone system. The zone defines the probability that the hazardous material (dust) will be present in sufficient quantities to produce explosive or flammable mixtures.
Zone 20 - An area where combustible dust or flammable fibers are suspended in the air continuously or for long periods of time.
Zone 21 - An area where combustible dust or flammable fibers are suspended in the air under normal operating conditions.
Zone 22 - An area where combustible dust or flammable fibers, under normal operating conditions, are unlikely to float in the air and do so only for a short period of time.
The various ranges of sensors are ATEX and IECEx certified for use in all Zone 21 or Zone 22 applications. (Atex-D)
The range of safety solutions includes safety limit switches, safety interlock switches, non-contact magnetic safety switches, non-contact RFID safety sensors, safety light curtains and emergency stop pull cord switches.
