How the System Works

The EPRO PR6423/005-010 CN operates by using an eddy current transducer in combination with a signal converter, forming an oscillator circuit. The amplitude of the oscillator’s vibration is dampened as a metallic object moves closer to the transducer. The damping characteristics of the system are proportional to the distance between the transducer face and the object being measured.

This system comes fully pre-adjusted, eliminating the need for on-site calibration. The only required adjustment is setting the correct gap between the transducer and the object to achieve the desired signal output from the converter.
