CON010 Epro | Shaft Vibration and Displacement Sensor Set

Product Details

Product Overview

The Emerson Epro CON010 + PR6423/010-120 system provides a complete solution for non-contacting measurement of shaft vibration, position, and displacement in high-speed rotating machinery. This kit pairs the PR6423/010-120 8mm eddy current proximity probe with the CON010 signal converter. The sensor detects microscopic changes in the gap between the probe tip and the target shaft, while the CON010 module translates these fluctuations into standardized 4–20 mA or voltage signals. This system serves as a critical front-end for machinery protection platforms like the Emerson AMS 6500, ensuring precise data acquisition for turbines, compressors, and large pumps.

Part Number Breakdown

• CON010: Standard Signal Converter Module (DIN rail mount).

• PR6423: 8mm Eddy Current Proximity Sensor Series.

• /010: Indicates specific thread/case length configuration.

• -120: Indicates the 120mm tip/sleeve length for specific mounting depths.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

• High-Fidelity Signal Integrity: The CON010 converter features advanced galvanic isolation, which prevents ground loops and electrical interference from distorting the vibration waveform. This architecture ensures that the DCS receives a "clean" signal, even in environments with heavy electromagnetic noise.

• Thermal Resilience: The PR6423 probe operates reliably at temperatures up to +180°C, making it suitable for installation near hot turbine bearings or steam-driven equipment where standard sensors would fail.

• Standardized Integration: The CON010 module converts raw eddy current signals into industry-standard 4–20 mA outputs. This simplifies integration with PLCs, SCADA systems, and machinery protection racks, eliminating the need for specialized third-party conditioning hardware.

• Non-Contact Precision: Utilizing eddy current technology, the sensor monitors shaft movement without physical contact. This prevents wear on both the sensor and the machinery, allowing for permanent, long-term installation on critical assets.

• Hazardous Area Readiness: With ATEX certification, this system meets the safety requirements for explosive atmospheres common in the oil & gas and petrochemical industries.

FAQs

Q1: Is the CON010 + PR6423/010-120 kit brand new?

A1: Yes. We supply this system as a 100% brand new, original unit in factory-sealed packaging. Every kit includes a full 12-month industrial warranty.

Q2: Can I use this system with non-Emerson machinery protection racks?

A2: Absolutely. Since the CON010 converter provides standardized voltage or 4–20 mA signals, it interfaces seamlessly with any DCS, PLC, or vibration monitor that accepts standard analog inputs.

Q3: How do I determine the correct gap setting for the probe?

A3: During installation, you must adjust the physical gap between the probe tip and the shaft to the "linear range" of the sensor (typically indicated by a specific voltage output from the CON010). This ensures the most accurate displacement readings.

Q4: Does this kit include the extension cable?

A4: This specific configuration includes the PR6423 probe and the CON010 converter. Depending on your installation distance, you may require an additional Epro extension cable (5m or 10m). Please specify your required total cable length when ordering.
