Welcome to Everight Position, Your trusted partner for navigating sensor solutions tailored to hazardous environments. While selecting the right sensor for such conditions may seem daunting, Everight simplifies the process by offering linear, rotary, and inclinometer sensors rated for hazardous environments, meeting stringent UL, CSA, ATEX and IECEx requirements.
Understanding the intricacies of hazardous environments is crucial. In addition to sensor specifications, it’s essential to comprehend the specific hazards present and the requisite formal certifications.
Our state-of-the-art sensor solutions offer unparalleled versatility, particularly in supporting various communication interfaces—a defining feature of POSITAL products. What sets us apart is our commitment to providing a broad product portfolio that seamlessly integrates with diverse mechanical mounting options and housing materials. This ensures adaptability to unique operational needs while emphasizing our dedication to providing cost-effective solutions tailored to your requirements.
Our comprehensive product portfolio includes rotary encoders essential for accurately determining angular position or rotational speed in hazardous environments. Whether it’s incremental encoders ideal for measuring velocity or absolute encoders ensuring uninterrupted operations even during power outages, we’ve got you covered.
While sensors for hazardous environments have existed for decades, the available options have not kept up industry advancements. Improvements in sensing technologies such as Hall and TMR magnetic based sensors and LVIT’s offer improvements in not only performance, but also longevity when compared to traditional optical and LVDT sensors. Furthermore, fieldbus such as CANopen and more recently, industrial ethernet based communication protocols such as Rockwell’s EtherNet/IP and Siemens PROFINET require sensors that support advanced communication protocols. While some manufacturers have simply exited the market rather than developed new products to support these advancements, Everight has partnered with companies such as POSITAL and Positek who have made a longterm commitment to supplying sensors for hazardous environments.
It is not enough for a sensor to be certified for use in a hazardous environment, rather it needs to have the necessary precision and reliability required by a given application. With rotary encoders capable of up to 16 bit resolution (65,384 pulses per revolution) and linear sensors capable of linearities as good as 0.1%, engineers are not limited to passive devices such as contact-based potentiometers.
Our sensors are integral to various industries. In defense and aerospace, they deliver precise measurements for flight control and satellite positioning. In manufacturing and industrial automation, they boost operational efficiency for tasks like assembly line automation and CNC machine alignment. In the fields of robotics and surgical robotics, our sensors enhance precision and efficiency, aiding in material handling and delicate surgical procedures.
