Emerson PR6424/002-010 PR6424 16 mm Eddy Current Sensor
A non-armored M18 × 1.5 PR6424 sensor using the longer 60 mm sleeve and a 5 m cable.
Product Profile
Emerson PR6424/002-010 is a 16 mm eddy-current sensor with M18 × 1.5 thread and no armor. The 2 in the mechanical group selects Cx 60 mm, producing the documented total dimension C of 72.5 mm.
Its cable group selects the adapter plug, 5 m total cable length and LEMO termination. This exact geometry and cable length must be preserved independently from the PR6424/000-030 variant.
Technical Data
System Role
Non-contact eddy-current sensing avoids mechanical loading of the rotating target.
The PR6424 family is intended for radial and axial dynamic displacement, position, eccentricity and speed/key measurement.
The documented converter family and target material remain part of the calibrated measurement chain.
The complete six-position suffix controls mechanical and cable options and must not be shortened during procurement.
Compatibility & Service
- Record the complete PR6424 suffix, converter type, target material and installed air gap.
- Do not mix cable or connector executions merely because the sensor family matches.
- Protect the coaxial connector and observe the documented cable bend limits during routing.
- After replacement, confirm static gap, sensitivity, polarity and monitor-channel alarms with the approved procedure.
Applications
- Steam-, gas- and hydro-turbine shaft monitoring.
- Compressor, pump and fan vibration or position measurement.
- Large-shaft installations requiring a 16 mm eddy-current sensor.
- Maintenance of an existing PR6424 measurement chain with the same mechanical and cable execution.
FAQ
Q01What mechanical difference separates PR6424/002-010 from the 000 execution?+
The 002 configuration uses Cx 60 mm and total C 72.5 mm, giving 20 mm more sleeve length than the 000 configuration.
Q02Why must the 5 m cable remain part of the PR6424/002-010 identity?+
The sensor and converter form a calibrated chain; cable execution is an ordering parameter, not a generic field-wire choice.
Q03Which converter information should be supplied with PR6424/002-010?+
Provide the exact converter type and configuration, output range, target material, installed gap and monitor input.
Q04What installation risk accompanies the longer sleeve?+
Available insertion depth and rear clearance must be checked so the sensor can be gapped without mechanical interference.
Q05How can a spare PR6424/002-010 be verified before shutdown?+
Compare the complete six-position suffix, thread, sleeve length, cable length, adapter and LEMO termination with the installed record.
