SPM Instrument releases the Airius II wireless vibration sensor for Ex Zone 2

The Airius wireless vibration sensors are a reliable, high-quality condition monitoring solution with a very competitive lifecycle cost. The new release involves sensors for communication via Wi-Fi or the LTE-M cellular protocol, certified for use in Zone 2 in potentially explosive atmospheres.

The Airius sensor is an ideal choice for remote, non-invasive monitoring of equipment in Ex environments. Far more efficient than manual, route-based measurement, the Airius sensors allow automated vibration monitoring of assets without incurring additional costs for cabling or gateways. Measuring temperature and triaxial vibration, Airius detects bearing and gear faults with minimum manual labor while providing a safer working environment.

The Airius II LTE-M version stands out as one of the market’s few wireless sensors for Ex environments that offer cellular communication–a perfect monitoring solution for equipment not covered by local area networks or Wi-Fi.

With options for communication via well-established Wi-Fi technology or data transfer via the mobile network, there is every opportunity to monitor important assets also in Ex environments.
