Detailed Description
The EPRO PR6423/108-110 eddy current sensor is engineered for precise displacement measurements in high-speed rotating machinery. Its contactless design ensures zero mechanical wear, extending both the sensor’s life and its accuracy. This makes it particularly useful for turbomachinery applications, where it measures key parameters such as eccentricity, position, and shaft displacement.
With a sensitivity of 8 V/mm (203.2 mV/mil), the sensor delivers reliable performance within a temperature range of 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F). It provides minimal deviation of just ± 0.025 mm (±1 mil) across its linear range of 2 mm (80 mils), ensuring high accuracy even in dynamic applications.
The sensor’s rugged construction, using stainless steel and PTFE, ensures long-lasting durability. It can endure extreme temperatures up to 180°C (356°F) in the sensor and 150°C (302°F) in the cable. This allows it to operate efficiently in challenging environments found in industries like power generation, chemical processing, and oil and gas.
Applications
- Turbomachinery Monitoring: Ideal for monitoring steam turbines, gas turbines, compressors, and fans.
- Industrial Automation: Suitable for use in critical monitoring and control systems for industrial machinery.
- Vibration and Displacement Measurement: Accurately measures dynamic shaft displacement and vibration in high-speed rotating machinery.
- Process Control: Used in applications requiring precision measurement of machine performance and operational status.
