Epro PR6424/012-010+CON011 16mm Eddy Current Sensor+Eddy Current Signal Converter 12-Month Warranty

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the main application of the PR6424/012-010 sensor?
It is designed for non-contact measurement of shaft displacement, position, and vibration in high-performance rotating machinery such as turbines, compressors, pumps, and fans.

What is the standard sensitivity of the PR6424 sensor?
The sensitivity is 4 V/mm (equivalent to 101.6 mV/mil) with a linearity of ≤ ±1.5%.

What type of material must the shaft be for accurate measurement?
The target surface should be made of ferromagnetic steel, specifically 42CrMo4 or equivalent.

What is the minimum shaft diameter required for the PR6424 sensor?
The shaft diameter must be at least 80 mm for reliable measurement.

What certifications does the sensor and converter pair hold for hazardous environments?
Both units are certified under ATEX, IEC-Ex, and CSA standards for use in hazardous areas, including intrinsic safety and non-sparking classifications.

Is the CON011 converter suitable for all PR6424 sensor ranges?
Yes, but extended measurement ranges (up to 10 mm) require specific converter variants, such as CON011/914-100 for PR6424.

What is the protection rating of the CON011 converter?
The CON011 is rated IP65, offering complete protection against dust ingress and water jets.

What is the weight of the complete sensor and converter assembly?
The sensor weighs approximately 0.2 kg, and the converter weighs approximately 0.6 kg, resulting in a combined weight of around 0.8 kg.
