Operating Principle

The EPRO PR6423/298-110 uses an eddy current transducer and a signal converter to form an oscillator circuit. The amplitude of oscillation is dampened by the proximity of a metallic object in front of the transducer. This damping characteristic is directly proportional to the distance between the transducer face and the measuring object.

The system is delivered fully adjusted, eliminating the need for onsite calibration. Only the gap between the transducer and the object needs adjustment to achieve the specified signal at the converter output.
