SKF is further strengthening its condition monitoring offer portfolio by a newly developed hazardous area version of its Microlog Analyzer dBX portable vibration analyser.
The device, certifi ed to IECEx, ATEX, Class I Division 2 and Class I Zone 2 standards, can safely perform condition-based maintenance in potentially explosive atmospheres in sectors such as energy and chemical processing. It was developed in response to customer requests.
“The Microlog Analyzer dBX, paired with our comprehensive condition monitoring solutions, delivers cutting-edge insight into the health of rotating assets – now extending that intelligence to hazardous areas. This powerful combination furthers SKF’s commitment to plantwide condition monitoring with expanded reach and reliability,” said Carl Tooj, Head of Condition Monitoring, Product Lines & Engineering at SKF.

Integrated leak management for natural gas applications operational effi ciency and regulatory compliance.
The sampler’s pinpointing capability is achieved thanks to an internal gas sensor with an extraction pump, enabling rapid and accurate leak detection while reducing unnecessary excavation. Purging is fl exible, with low- fl ow battery-powered operation or high-fl ow compressed air via vacuum venturi, monitored in real time through integrated software.
Quantitative assessment combines fl ow rate and methane concentration data, providing reliable leak grading to prioritise repairs, facilitate compliance, and enhance environmental safety. Remote Wi Fi control and intuitive interfaces simplify fi eld operation, allowing teams to work faster and safer.
Sensors Inc., has recently introduced the Bar Hole Sampler, a compact, all-in-one solution created to streamline natural gas leak management. The system integrates pinpointing, purging, and quantifi cation, offering fi eld technicians a single device to improve
By consolidating three critical functions into a single portable system, the Bar Hole Sampler provides a step-change for utilities, maintenance contractors, and gas operators seeking precision, effi ciency, and improved environmental performance.

Advanced hydrogen leak detection for industrial applications
The Sensistor Sentrac Hydrogen Leak Detector, from INFICON, sets a new standard for industrial leak detection. Built on Sensistor’s proven, highly selective hydrogen sensor technology, it delivers exceptional sensitivity—capable of pinpointing both small and large leaks, even in environments with high background tracer gas levels. Thanks to its superior selectivity, the Sentrac maintains reliable performance even under conditions with disturbing background gases such as VOCs, ensuring accurate leak detection in challenging industrial settings.
At the core of the Sentrac is a large, high- resolution color touchscreen with an expanded viewing angle for excellent visibility in all lighting conditions. Its intuitive interface allows quick navigation through menus and settings, enabling fast setup and effi cient operation. Clear visual feedback and logical layouts ensure operators can focus on leak detection with minimal training.
The ergonomic Strix® hand probe enhances
Enabling predictive maintenance in hazardous areas helps users avoid costly downtime and equipment failures. The Microlog Analyzer dBX for hazardous environments minimises unplanned maintenance, reduces operating costs and raises rotational machinery
reliability. It allows high-precision, real-time condition monitoring in areas that were previously diffi cult to monitor. The device can be applied in industries including traditional energy, chemicals, food and beverage (ethanol) – and others where fl ammable gases, vapour or mist may be present – reducing the risk of ignition and ensuring compliance with strict industry regulations.
Built tough, intelligent and safe, the Microlog Analyser dBX for hazardous environments delivers high-speed performance and fi eld-ready durability. With MPA-in-a-fl ash data acquisition – three times faster than earlier models – and an integrated camera, it streamlines documentation and diagnostics in demanding conditions. Its intuitive touch and keypad controls, modular upgrade options, and advanced capabilities like SKF gE bearing analysis, make it a versatile solution for tasks such as impact testing, digital recording, and multi-plane balancing.
