The integrated assembly senses relative mechanical motion of rotating shaft targets through eddy current induction, converting impedance shifts at the 8 mm probe tip into processed analog outputs. The physical loop connects the PR6423\/002-031-CN field-mounted probe to the rail-mounted CON041 signal conditioner to execute physical-to-electrical signal linearisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCON041+PR6423\/002-031-CN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmerson (EPRO)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnited States\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.32 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12.1 cm x 5.2 cm x 16.6 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProbe: -35 to +180 deg C; Converter: -35 to +85 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower supply: 24 VDC nominal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProbe Tip Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLinear Measurement Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 mm (80 mils)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 V\/mm (203.2 mV\/mil) +\/- 5%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 10 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput Signal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-20 mA DC \/ +\/-10 V DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtection Class\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProbe: IP66; Converter: IP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProcess Control Integration and Channel Isolation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe converter electronics utilize channel-to-channel isolation to prevent potential ground loops from corrupting the high-frequency measurement signals in dense multi-channel installations. The CON041 module conditions raw physical sensor readings, generating a dual-format output comprising a +\/-10 V DC dynamic signal for real-time spectrum analyzers and a linearized 4-20 mA DC current loop for direct DCS controller integration. This separate analog loop routing safeguards system integrity in environments with elevated electromagnetic interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How does the CON041 converter behave when a sensor cable undergoes an open or short circuit?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The converter deploys diagnostic circuitry to continuously evaluate sensor loop integrity, driving the analog output current below 3.6 mA to flag a cabling fault directly to the supervisory system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the CON041 signal conditioner be mounted inside the high-temperature zone of the turbine housing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. The PR6423\/002-031-CN probe is rated for high-temperature zones up to +180 deg C, but the CON041 converter contains active semiconductor components and must be installed in a field junction box where temperatures stay between -35 and +85 deg C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Do the voltage and current outputs require separate calibration procedures?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. Both the 4-20 mA DC and +\/-10 V DC outputs are pre-calibrated and linearized simultaneously across the 2 mm measurement range based on the 8 V\/mm factory-calibrated sensitivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMechanical Gap Calibration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thread the PR6423\/002-031-CN probe into the machine casing while measuring the output voltage, securing the locknuts only when the baseline gap voltage stabilizes at the calibrated 0.5 mm offset.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoaxial Cable Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wrap the connection between the probe pigtail and the extension cable with self-amalgamating tape to seal out moisture, steam, and synthetic lubricants.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShield Grounding Protocol:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ensure the coaxial cable shield terminates strictly at the dedicated shield terminal of the CON041 converter to establish a single-point ground and prevent signal noise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConduit Separation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Route all low-voltage sensor cables through dedicated grounded metal conduits, separate from high-current motor cables or variable frequency drive power lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Emerson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44364426805347,"sku":"CON041+PR6423\/002-031","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/5246\/8067\/files\/19_4b8f2c47-ea5c-4377-8579-293620d99d6b.jpg?v=1784105703","url":"https:\/\/www.autocontrolglobal.com\/products\/emerson-con041-pr6423-002-031-cn-eddy-current-proximity-sensor","provider":"AutoControl Global","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
