Epro PR6424/118-100 16mm Eddy Current Sensor

Product Introduction

The Epro PR6424/118-100 Eddy Current Sensor is a high-precision, non-contact displacement and vibration monitoring device designed for rotating machinery and industrial applications requiring high accuracy. With a 16 mm sensor head diameter and a weight of 0.2 kg, this sensor is suitable for demanding environments where stable and reliable performance is critical.

Part of the Epro PR6424 series, the PR6424/118-100 is optimized for high-dynamic applications and extended measurement ranges. Its eddy current principle allows precise detection of shaft movement, vibration amplitude, and relative displacement without physical contact, which minimizes wear and enables long-term monitoring.

The sensor is fully compatible with Epro CON021 and CON041 converters, enabling seamless integration into turbine protection systems, condition monitoring platforms, and distributed control systems (DCS).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How does the PR6424/118-100 detect shaft movement?
   It uses the eddy current principle, sensing changes in the electromagnetic field caused by a conductive target moving near the sensor head.

2. What type of output does the sensor provide?
   It outputs a voltage proportional to displacement, which can be conditioned by a compatible converter.

3. What is the sensor’s frequency range?
   The sensor operates from DC up to 10 kHz, suitable for static and dynamic monitoring.

4. Can it measure both radial and axial movements?
   It is designed primarily for radial displacement measurement. Axial changes may influence readings slightly.

5. How is accuracy maintained in noisy environments?
   Shielded coaxial cable and proper grounding, along with the stainless steel housing, minimize interference.

6. Is it suitable for predictive maintenance?
   Yes, it can monitor vibration trends and detect early signs of unbalance or misalignment.

7. How does it interface with monitoring systems?
   Through a CON021 or CON041 converter, which provides power and conditions the output for integration.

8. What target materials can it detect?
   It measures conductive materials like steel or metal alloys. Non-conductive targets cannot be measured.

9. Can it provide real-time data for protection systems?
   Yes, it delivers continuous displacement and vibration data for automated monitoring and alarms.

10. What happens if the sensor connection fails?
    Converters can detect faults such as open or short circuits and alert operators.
