How It Works

The EPRO PR6423/154-110 eddy current transducer works in conjunction with a signal converter to create an oscillator circuit. This oscillator’s amplitude is dampened when a metallic object approaches the transducer, with the damping characteristics directly proportional to the distance between the transducer and the object being measured.

Notably, the system is delivered fully adjusted, which eliminates the need for on-site calibration. Once installed, the only adjustment required is setting the gap between the transducer and the measured object to achieve the specified output signal.
