EPRO PR6423/297-110 Non-Contact Eddy Current Displacement Sensor

Overview

The EPRO PR6423/297-110 is a high-performance, radioactive radiation-resistant eddy current transducer designed for non-contact displacement measurements. Its robust construction makes it ideal for applications in harsh environments, including nuclear radiation zones. This sensor is particularly suited for turbomachinery, reactor coolant pumps, motors, pumps, fans, and blowers.

This displacement probe measures the position or movement of a shaft without making contact with the measured surface. In sleeve bearing machines, the shaft remains separated from the bearing material by a thin oil film. The oil dampens vibrations, preventing the transmission of shaft movement or position through the bearing to the case. Therefore, traditional case vibration sensors are not effective in monitoring sleeve bearing machines.

The EPRO PR6423/297-110 provides an optimal solution by directly measuring shaft motion and position through the bearing or within it. This non-contact measurement ensures high accuracy, even in environments where vibration or position transmission is heavily attenuated.

Applications

The EPRO PR6423/297-110 is designed for critical industrial applications, including:

• Turbomachinery: Monitors shaft vibrations, eccentricity, and axial displacement.
• Reactors & Nuclear Plants: Operates efficiently in radiation zones for reactor coolant pumps and other nuclear applications.
• Pumps, Fans, and Motors: Measures shaft position and motion in rotating equipment.
• Sleeve Bearing Machines: Ideal for direct measurement of shaft displacement and motion without contact.

Key Features

• Radiation Resistance: The sensor is designed to withstand radioactive environments, making it suitable for nuclear radiation zone applications.
