Accelerometer Protector Options For Industrial Applications

In the industrial world, many situations arise where extra protection for instrumentation is required. For situations like this, CTC has developed two styles of sensor protection. 

CTC’s MH152-1A Top Exit Sensor Protector is designed for use in harsh industrial environments where falling debris, caustic chemicals, or other nonexplosive hazards may occur. Consisting of a two-part aluminum housing with three mounting holes for the base, the accelerometer protector is assembled easily in the field. Viton® seals resist dirt and corrosive chemicals. The top of the sensor protector is equipped with wrench flats in order to secure the two primary pieces together. A single 3/4-14 NPT plug is included with the housing for applications where two exits from the housing are not required. The MH152-1A is sized to easily accommodate all of the standard types of CTC top exit sensors.

The MH148-1A Side Exit Sensor Protector is intended for use in areas where the aluminum housing of the MH152-1A is not appropriate, or a side exit sensor must be used. Made from 316 stainless steel, the MH148-1A is open at both ends for easy access to the sensor connection. Frequently employed in the mining industry, the sensor protectors are extremely durable and resistant to rust as well as the falling debris frequently found in mining applications.
