In hazardous areas, the success of a field device is determined not only by its measurement technology – but also by its IIoT functions and a well‑designed, standards‑compliant explosion protection concept.
MESCO develops field devices for process automation where explosion protection forms the foundation.
From the very beginning – starting at the concept phase – we consider miniaturization, types of ignition protection, energy limitation, temperature classes, and all safety‑relevant boundary conditions. This ensures devices are internationally certifiable (IECEx, ATEX, FM, UL, CSA) and remain technologically leading.
Our experienced specialists combine explosion protection with state‑of‑the‑art electronics development. This enables us to realize intrinsically safe sensors, actuators, and control devices with IIoT‑ready communication (Ethernet‑APL, Single Pair Ethernet with PoDL, HART) based on established models such as FISCO. Functional safety according to IEC 61508 or IEC 61511 is integrated seamlessly – up to device architectures eligible for SIL certification.
MESCO develops on your behalf and supports the entire development cycle – from requirements definition to hardware and software development, certification, and coordination with testing bodies.
Your advantage: A development partner who understands explosion protection, functional safety, electronics, and communication technology as one unified system – enabling efficient, high‑quality development of market‑ready, certifiable field devices.
We are happy to support you in bringing your next device generation into hazardous areas – safely, in compliance with standards, and technologically advanced.
