Produkteinführung
The Epro PR6423/10R-040+CON021 is a high-performance, non-contact eddy current proximity sensor system designed for critical vibration and displacement monitoring applications. It belongs to the PR6423 series von proximity probes developed by Epro (a brand von Brüel & Kjær Vibro), and features an 8mm tip diameter suitable for standard industrial installations.
Paired with the CON021 converter module, the PR6423/10R-040 probe becomes a complete measurement chain that is compatible with a wide range von machinery protection systems, including those from Epro MMS6000, MMS3000, and third-party monitoring systems. The sensor is capable von precise shaft vibration, axial position, and radial runout measurement in harsh industrial environments such as gas turbines, compressors, motors, and gearboxes.
The PR6423 series is known for its durability, precision, and flexibility in harsh environments. The 10R version, specifically, vonfers optimized performance for racked systems and delivers high linearity and accuracy even under extreme temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic interference conditions.
