Emerson PR6424/010-040 16mm Eddy-Current Contactless Sensor

Emerson PR6424/010-040 is a high-performance eddy-current contactless sensor designed for non-contact measurement of static and dynamic displacements. Part of the renowned PR6400 series from Emerson (formerly part of GE Bently Nevada), this 16mm sensor is engineered for extreme reliability in critical rotating machinery, including turbines, compressors, and pumps.

Utilizing the eddy current principle, the PR6424/010-040 provides accurate readings of shaft vibration, axial position, and eccentricity without physical contact, ensuring zero mechanical wear and long-term stability.

Key Technical Specifications

Model Number: PR6424/010-040

Technology: Eddy-Current (Contactless)

Probe Diameter: 16 mm

Linear Range: 2 mm to 4 mm (Typical)

Temperature Range: -35°C to +200°C (-31°F to +392°F)

Connection: Standard 3-wire configuration with MIL-C-5015 type connector (010 option) and 4-meter cable (040 option)

Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Emerson 3500 Series, AMS 6500, and all eddy-current signal conditioners (e.g., PR6424 requires a separate oscillator-demodulator like the CON011 or compatible system).

The PR6424/010-040 stands out due to its rugged construction and signal stability. Unlike other technologies, eddy-current sensors are unaffected by oil, water, dirt, or dielectric contaminants in the gap between the probe tip and the target. This makes the Emerson PR6424 the industry standard for machinery protection systems.
