Intrinsically Safe Incremental Encoder type IEI-1

Intrinsically safe incremental encoder type IEI-1 is designed to measure the rotation angle of equipment operating in group I hazardous areas (methane and/or coal dust explosion) as well as in group IIB hazardous areas. Thanks to its compact and solid design, it can be used in harsh operating conditions without the need for additional mechanical guards.

These encoders are designed in accordance with the good engineering practice with respect to their safety and meet the requirements of the standards PN-EN 60079-0 and PN-EN 60079-11.
