Epro PR6424/002-031 16mm Eddy Current Sensor

Product Introduction

The Epro PR6424/002-031 16mm Eddy Current Sensor is a high-performance proximity probe designed for precision measurement of shaft displacement and vibration in rotating machinery. Belonging to the robust PR6424 sensor family, this model combines high sensitivity, wide frequency response, and rugged construction to meet the demanding requirements of industrial condition monitoring and machine protection systems.

Its 16 mm sensor head allows for stable and accurate measurements even under harsh operating conditions such as high temperatures, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference. The PR6424/002-031 works seamlessly with Epro CON-series drivers (CON021, CON031, CON041), which convert the raw probe signal into industry-standard output formats. This sensor is widely trusted in turbomachinery, power generation, petrochemical, and heavy industrial applications.
