Applications
The Epro PR6424/019-100 is used in industrial rotating machinery where stable and continuous displacement measurement is required for protection and predictive maintenance.
It is commonly applied in steam turbines, gas turbines, hydro turbines, compressors, pumps, and large industrial fans. In turbine systems, it supports radial shaft vibration and axial displacement monitoring. In compressors and pump systems, it enables early detection of mechanical issues such as misalignment, rotor instability, imbalance, and bearing degradation.
This sensor is also widely used in machinery protection systems compliant with industrial standards such as API 670, where real-time vibration data is required to prevent equipment damage and ensure safe operation of critical assets.
Advantages
This sensor uses eddy current technology to provide non-contact, high-stability measurement with strong resistance to industrial environmental interference.
It delivers accurate linear displacement output with consistent repeatability, making it suitable for continuous monitoring of high-speed rotating equipment. The 16mm probe head ensures a stable electromagnetic field distribution for reliable shaft measurement in large machines.
It is designed for long-term operation under harsh conditions, including temperature variation, vibration, and electrical noise. The sensor also maintains low drift performance, supporting extended calibration intervals and reducing maintenance requirements.
