The NEVER-FAIL bearing sensor

Conax Technologies’ Ex/MBS Series explosion-proof rated miniature bearing sensors feature our exclusive redundant seal technology, setting a new standard for safety, performance, and reliability in demanding rotary equipment applications.

Bearings in rotating equipment operate under extreme conditions. In typical sensors, seals can break down over time, causing oil leaks and wicking. This creates a serious risk of oil ignition, which can lead to catastrophic failures at the junction box and surrounding area.

Our Ex/MBS Series sensors are specially designed to excel in these harsh environments where standard miniature bearing sensors often fail. Utilizing a proprietary, redundant sealing process, they eliminate the risk of oil leakage and wicking—creating your NEVER-FAIL solution.
