Product Introduction
The EPRO PR6426/000-001 is a high-precision 32mm eddy current sensor designed for displacement, position, and vibration monitoring in rotating machinery and industrial equipment. It employs the eddy current principle, allowing non-contact measurement of conductive targets with high repeatability and minimal mechanical wear.
The sensor’s stainless-steel housing ensures robust performance under harsh operating conditions, including high vibration, temperature fluctuations, and electromagnetic interference. The PR6426/000-001 is widely used in conjunction with EPRO transducer drivers, such as the CON021, enabling seamless integration into machinery monitoring systems.
This sensor is ideal for predictive maintenance applications, allowing early detection of rotor imbalance, misalignment, or bearing anomalies, thereby reducing unplanned downtime and improving operational safety.
