ATEX certified versions of MAG magnetic encoders now available

Hübner Giessen has extended its range of MAG magnetic encoders to include an ATEX certified option. The compact design eliminates the need for bearings and is suitable for shaft diameters up to 1200 mm.

Special scanning technology facilitates highly accurate and reliable signal transmissions even in harsh and demanding environments. The magnetic encoder system is impervious to soiling, shock and vibration. Additional advantages include implementing greater axial and radial tolerances.

Tailor-made solutions – including split pulse wheel option – facilitate installation in particularly difficult conditions.

Application and installation options include:

• Drive shafts in ships
• Motors used in mining excavators
• Tandem drives in rolling mills
• Gas and water turbines
• Large diameter machine shafts
