04 April 2022
HANSFORD SENSORS, a global manufacturer of industrial accelerometers, will be showcasing its range of vibration monitoring solutions at Maintec 2022. The company specialises in the design and manufacture of industrial accelerometers for monitoring vibration and temperature levels of industrial machinery, which can aid predictive maintenance.
The company’s product range is intended for use across all industry sectors, including metal, pharmaceutical, wind power, marine, paper, mining and quarrying ,and food and drink.
Manufactured in the UK, Hansford’s products are used globally by leading companies, in over 50 countries. The company claims its international presence enables it to deliver a combination of product quality and reliability, prompt delivery, competitive prices and outstanding customer and technical support.
A range of products, including the new grease adaptor mounts will be on show at Maintec. To improve the process when mounting the sensor with stud or magnet to the machine, the HS-AS241 grease adaptor mount with 1/4"-28 UNF female accelerometer mounting thread, ensures accuracy and top cleanliness, producing an airtight seal. The 416 Stainless Steel material provides high resistance to acid and corrosion. This grease adaptor mount has the option of straight or 45° fitting. One of the key features is the quick and easy process of using this grease adaptor which enables better precision and reaches areas that would otherwise be difficult to access. The grease adaptor mount is available with lengths of 20mm and 40mm, with other options to be specified by customers.
Other products being showcased include 100mV/g accelerometers. Available in both top and side entry, these industrial accelerometers have a robust stainless-steel construction and are available with a choice of connectors or integral cable options including waterproof silicon cable, allowing them to be used in a variety of industrial conditions.
The accelerometers are designed for use throughout various industries, typically on drives and rotating shafts such as those found in pumps, fans, motors, gearboxes, and compressors. There is also the additional choice of intrinsically safe accelerometers which are ATEX and IEC Ex certified, for use in applications where the environment contains inflammable gases, fumes, chemicals, powders, dust etc.
