Applications
The Epro PR6424 series 16mm eddy current sensor is widely used in machinery condition monitoring and protection systems where precise measurement of shaft dynamic behavior is required.
It is commonly applied in steam turbines, gas turbines, hydro turbines, compressors, pumps, and industrial fans. In turbine systems, it provides continuous monitoring of radial shaft vibration and axial position. In compressors and pumps, it supports early detection of mechanical issues such as misalignment, imbalance, rotor instability, and bearing degradation.
It is also used in high-reliability protection systems where continuous real-time vibration data is required to prevent equipment damage and ensure safe operation of critical rotating assets.
Advantages
This sensor is engineered for high accuracy, long-term stability, and robust performance in harsh industrial environments.
It provides non-contact eddy current measurement with excellent linearity, ensuring precise displacement and vibration tracking even under high-speed rotation. Its 16mm probe design allows stable installation on large shafts with consistent air gap performance.
The sensor is designed for strong resistance to temperature variation, vibration, and electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for continuous operation in power plants and heavy industrial facilities. It also delivers low drift characteristics, supporting long-term calibration stability and reduced maintenance requirements.
