Description
Product Description
Overview
The EPRO CoN021 + PR6423/00M-030 is a fully integrated eddy current measurement system engineered for continuous monitoring of high-speed rotating machinery. Designed for reliability and precision, the solution delivers stable and repeatable measurements of shaft displacement, vibration, axial position, and rotor eccentricity even under extreme operating conditions. This system is ideal for critical turbomachinery applications where long-term accuracy, fast dynamic response, and mechanical durability are essential.
System Architecture
The system is composed of three interconnected components calibrated as a matched set:
Using the PR6423/00M-030 probe with the CoN021 converter ensures optimal linearity, temperature stability, and signal integrity across the full operational range.
EPRO CoN021 Signal Converter
The CoN021 is a high-performance signal conditioner for rack-mounted machinery monitoring. It translates probe signals into standardized analog outputs compatible with vibration monitoring modules, PLCs, and DCS platforms. Its design supports both protection and continuous condition monitoring in demanding industrial environments.
