Minco Conforming to the New IEC EX ec Standard

It takes three things to start a fire: oxygen,
fuel, and ignition. Unless you’re in a controlled atmosphere, there’s always plenty of oxygen in the air around us. And in many industrial settings, fuel—flammable gas or liquid or finely divided flammable powders or fibers—is readily available in the products they make or use. Such operations go to great lengths to contain these dangerous fuels, but the critical factor that must be controlled is sources of ignition.

Minco’s Miniature Sensors Help Customers Scale Down

Minco has been building sensors for over 60 years, and we have a reputation for providing solutions that are accurate and absolutely reliable. Often times these sensors are quite large, like the stator sticks that monitor the coil windings of a power station generator, sometimes reaching twenty feet in length.

Minco’s Dual Sensor Probes Offer Redundancy and Convenience

As humans we’re kind of picky about temperature, so we use thermostats to control the heaters and air conditioners that maintain our relatively narrow comfort range. Similarly, many chemical, biological, electrical, and mechanical processes work best at specific temperatures and use sensors to help maintain those temperatures. In some applications, medical and aerospace in particular, maintaining a specific temperature is so critical to life and safety that redundant sensors are used to ensure reliability.
