Burst sensors
Burst sensors signal the triggering/opening of bursting discs. They are easy to install as part of the bursting disc and in the indoor and outdoor (IP67) applications. In the versions with a PTFE tip the trigger element remains on the sensor when it snaps off so that no parts soil the container contents/silos.
Characteristics |
||
|---|---|---|
| breaking the circuit upon triggering of the bursting disc through a dust explosion | M12 brass housing | either 0 ohm or 2 ohm resistive sensor |
| suitable for indoor and outdoor use | PVC or PUR-insulated connection cable | 4-wire versions with 2 separate circuits |
Approved under (look also our Certificates) |

| II 2 G Ex ib IIC T6 Gb | II 2 D Ex ib IIIC T80 °C IP65 (Db) -25 °C <+80 °C | IBExU05ATEX1035 |
Installation |
||
| inside the sensor is a resistive sensor. A conductor loop is printed on the hybrid circuit protruding from the housing and protected by a flask, which is broken by the bursting of the disc and so permanently interrupting the circuit | the sensor is installed as part of the bursting disc | |
Advantages |
||
| flask made of glass or PTFE | PTFE flask remains on the sensor when triggered | can be retrofitted |
| length of connecting cable can be freely selected (standard 2 m) | 4-wire versions with 2 separate circuits | |
Applications |
