MSC proudly offers ATEX/IECEx certified explosion-proof magnetic speed sensors, purposefully engineered for application in hazardous environments classified as Class I, Division 1, Group A, B, C, & D. These sensors have been meticulously crafted to excel in surroundings where potentially explosive substances such as acetylene, flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapor, or combustible liquid-produced vapor are present.

In addition to their explosion-proof certification, several of our sensors also carry SIL (Safety Integrity Level) certification. This dual certification emphasizes not only their resistance to explosion hazards but also their unwavering dedication to reliability and safety. It’s this commitment that makes them sought-after components in critical industries like chemical manufacturing, oil refineries, exploration facilities, and among OEM purchasers who require them for turbine-driven generators and compressors.

Beyond their ATEX/IECEx certifications, our explosion-proof sensors have been meticulously crafted to meet the stringent standards of multiple countries worldwide, including Canada, China, Europe, and Korea. This international compliance underscores our adaptability to diverse safety regulations and standards, ensuring our sensors can be readily employed across the globe.
