Efficient condition monitoring for cabinets and housings
June 2016Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Turck’s IMX12-CCM can be installed in virtually any control cabinet or protective housing in order to monitor the actual degree of protection. The rail-mounted device uses a simple switch signal to indicate to the control system any incorrect closing of doors, or the exceeding of limit values for temperature and interior humidity.
The 12 mm wide IMX12-CCM comes with an intrinsically safe 2-wire isolating transducer interface, thus enabling it to be used also in hazardous areas. The simple teach-in process can be carried out directly on the device without the need for a computer or any additional tools. A standard HART interface is provided for additional diagnostic options, such as for reading out the absolute measured values.
Besides the interface technology, Turck’s control cabinet guard offers a range of sensors to monitor the status of the environment: a temperature sensor, an absolute humidity sensor and a triangulation sensor. This last one measures the distance to the cover or door and thus monitors correct closing. In order to detect humidity problems, the unit monitors these and compares them with the taught safe condition. As soon as defined limit values have been exceeded, this is indicated to the control level via a potential-free contact. The IMX12-CCM is IEC-Ex and ATEX approved.

Personnel safety systems on machines are often seen as a necessary evil. To function correctly, a safety device is required to be self-checking, which adds more complexity and costs compared to a non-safety device.
