Electrical & Electronics Hansford Sensors launches new semi-permanent mounting solutions Hansford Sensors, the leading manufacturer and global supplier of industrial accelerometers, has extended its range of mounting options for vibration sensors still further with the launch of the new HS-AM series of mounting magnets. The HS-AM magnets are an effective temporary mounting solution that enables vibration sensors to be securely connected to the mounting face of an asset while readings are taken using a hand held data collector. The new HS-AM series is available in a range of sizes, from 20mm to 40mm, and pull strengths, between 12kg and 45kg, to meet the mounting needs of manufacturers operating critical machinery in almost any application, such as metals, cement and pharmaceutical production. Each magnet within the series has an operating temperature range of up to 80 degrees centigrade. In addition, where manufacturers opt for quick fit mounting, the HS-AM magnets can be fitted with an AS012 Stud Adapter. Visit the Hansford Sensors website for further information on the HS-AM magnets and to view the company’s market leading industrial accelerometers.
