EPRO CON011 + PR6424/010-140 Displacement Transducer System

The EPRO CON011 + PR6424/010-140, also cataloged as the CON011 + PR6424 Displacement Transducer System, operates as a dedicated hardware component for non-contact shaft vibration and dynamic position monitoring within rotating machinery platforms.

Hardware Specifications

Eddy-Current Probe Scaling & Gap Voltage Validation

The PR6424 sensor head generates a high-frequency electromagnetic field that detects microscopic displacement changes without mechanical contact. The CON011 converter performs eddy-current probe scaling, converting probe impedance shifts into a linear signal at a sensitivity of 10 mV/um across a 0.1 Hz to 10 kHz frequency band. Precise mechanical installation requires gap voltage validation to center the sensor within its +/-100 um linear measuring range, ensuring high-accuracy (+/-0.5 um) readings and optimal cross-talk suppression from surrounding target metals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What environmental protection ratings are assigned to the system components?

A: The PR6424 sensor head is rated IP66 for harsh field exposure, while the CON011 signal converter carries an IP20 rating for cabinet mounting.

Q: Is field recalibration required during initial installation?

A: No, the paired probe and converter system are factory-calibrated for immediate deployment without requiring field span or zero adjustments.

Field Installation Guidelines

• Secure the IP66 PR6424 sensor head to a rigid mounting bracket to eliminate structural resonance along the measurement axis.
• Adjust the physical insertion depth to validate that the DC gap voltage corresponds to the midpoint of the +/-100 um linear range before securing mounting nuts.
• Keep the 10-meter coaxial cable free of sharp bends and route it inside grounded conduit to protect against high-frequency electromagnetic interference.
• Install the IP20 CON011 converter inside a dry, dust-free control cabinet with adequate ventilation to remain within the -20 to +85 deg C temperature limit.
