Product Introduction
The Epro PR6424/010-040+CON010 16mm Eddy Current Sensor is a precision non-contact displacement and vibration measurement device designed for high-performance industrial applications. Featuring a 16mm sensor head diameter and a weight of 0.32 kg, this sensor is engineered for reliable and accurate monitoring of rotating machinery, including turbines, compressors, pumps, and motors.
This model integrates seamlessly with the CON010 converter, which conditions and linearizes the sensor output for compatibility with Epro monitoring systems. The sensor uses eddy current technology to measure shaft displacement, vibration, and relative position without physical contact, ensuring minimal wear and long-term stability. Its robust stainless steel construction and high immunity to electromagnetic interference make it suitable for operation in harsh industrial environments, maintaining high accuracy even under temperature fluctuations, vibration, and electrical noise.
