New Hansford sensor offers triaxial functionality

Because the HS-109 allows three axes to be read simultaneously, measurement time can be reduced, and this functionality can be supplied with a variety of different sensitivities to suit a variety of applications. The HS-109 can be used within offline applications using commercially available data collectors and also in online monitoring systems across a range of industries, including metals manufacture, paper and pulp, mining, pharmaceutical and aerospace, automotive, water and waste treatment, building services, civil engineering and utilities.

The capability of the HS-109 sensor to serve this range of applications stems not only from its functionality but also its robust, resilient design. Protected by a stainless steel casing, the HS-109 can function within an operating temperature range of -55 to 140degC and is sealed to an ingress protection level of IP67. The HS-109 is therefore well designed to monitor a range of machinery, including fans, motors, pumps, compressors, centrifuges, conveyers, air-handling units, gearboxes, rolls, dryers, presses, cooling, HVAC, spindles, machine tooling and process equipment.
