The Intrinsic Safety Module (ISM) market is a subset of the Sensors market, focusing on the development and production of safety modules for hazardous environments. ISMs are designed to protect personnel and equipment from the risk of fire or explosion due to the presence of flammable gases, vapors, or dusts. ISMs are used in a variety of industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and mining. ISM modules are designed to limit the energy available to ignite a hazardous atmosphere, and are typically used in combination with other safety systems, such as flame arrestors, spark arrestors, and pressure relief valves. ISMs are also used to monitor and control the flow of hazardous materials, and to detect and prevent the release of hazardous gases. Companies in the ISM market include ABB, Siemens, Honeywell, Emerson, and Yokogawa. Show Less Read more
