The PR6480/0B1-100 is part of the PR6480 eddy current sensor family used in rotating machinery protection systems. It operates by generating a high-frequency electromagnetic field and measuring induced eddy current changes on conductive target surfaces, enabling precise non-contact measurement of shaft movement and vibration.
This sensor family is widely used in predictive maintenance systems for turbines, compressors, pumps, and generators, helping detect early-stage mechanical faults such as imbalance, misalignment, bearing wear, and rotor instability before failure occurs.
