BEI’s H38 Encoder MSHA Certified for Underground Mining
 BEI
Industrial Encoder Division has been issued Mine Safety & Health
Administration (MSHA) certification for the model H38 Explosion
Proof Rotary Encoder. Certified as meeting Part 18, Title 30 CFR,
it is now rated for underground mine usage, allowing for operation
in underground coal and gassy mine environments throughout the
United States. The H38 is the first rotary encoder to receive MSHA
certification.
The H38 features a standard shaft seal, double bearing seals,
and a cast aluminum housing with a hard anodized, sealed finish.
It is an explosion proof version of the field-proven H25 encoder
series and carries the NEMA Class 4X, 6 and 13 environmental ratings.
The H38 is ideal for providing accurate and reliable position and
speed measurements and control in mine-related applications, such
as shaft elevator control and ore cart position and speed.
