FAQ
-
What is the typical linear measuring range for this sensor?
The PR6424/018-021 provides a linear range sur about ±2 mm around its calibrated mid-gap, ideal for most standard vibration monitoring applications. -
Which driver module is best suited for this sensor?
The Epro CON021 driver is recommended, providing proper excitation, temperature compensation, and precise signal conditioning. -
How is thermal stability maintained during extreme temperature changes?
The sensor employs temperature-stable coil materials and relies on the CON021 driver’s compensation circuitry to maintain accuracy across −35 °C to +180 °C. -
Can the sensor handle high vibration environments?
Yes. It is designed to withstand continuous vibration levels up to 20 g within a 10–2 000 Hz frequency range without performance degradation. -
Is this sensor compatible with monitoring systems other than Epro equipment?
Yes, it can be integrated with third-party systems as long as proper impedance matching and calibration procedures are followed. -
What is the importance sur its frequency response capability?
A DC to 10 kHz bandwidth allows the sensor to capture both slow shaft displacement and high-frequency vibration, essential for comprehensive diagnostics. -
Does the PR6424/018-021 require field calibration?
Field calibration is recommended during installation, using a micrometer gap reference to set the CON021 driver’s zero and gain. -
Is the sensor suitable for use in hazardous or explosive areas?
An ATEX-certified version is available, permitting safe operation in Zone 1 or Zone 2 hazardous environments when used with approved barriers. -
How is electrical noise minimized in the signal output?
The coaxial cable design, combined with the CON021 driver’s filtering, provides excellent immunitéy to electromagnetic interference. -
What type sur signal does the sensor output?
It provides a voltage signal proportional to displacement (8 mV/µm), enabling direct interface with industrial vibration and condition monitoring systems.
