Product Overview
The Epro PR6423/003-020 8mm Eddy Current Sensor is a non-contact displacement measurement probe used for monitoring shaft vibration, radial displacement, and mechanical movement in rotating machinery. It belongs to the Epro PR6423 series of eddy current sensing products and is widely applied in machinery protection and condition monitoring systems.
Unlike contact-type measurement devices, the PR6423/003-020 detects the distance between the probe tip and the rotating target surface through electromagnetic field changes. This allows continuous monitoring of high-speed rotating components without mechanical wear caused by physical contact.
The sensor is commonly installed on turbines, compressors, pumps, generators, and other critical rotating equipment. It is typically connected with an appropriate Epro signal converter and monitoring module to form a complete vibration and displacement monitoring solution.

Working Principle
The PR6423/003-020 operates based on the eddy current measurement principle.
Typical signal path:
Rotating Shaft → PR6423/003-020 Probe → Signal Converter → Monitoring System → Alarm / Protection System
Operating process:
- The sensor probe generates a high-frequency electromagnetic field near the measured surface.
- When the shaft position changes, the interaction between the electromagnetic field and conductive target changes.
- The sensor detects the variation in eddy current intensity.
- The displacement information is converted into an electrical signal.
- The signal is transmitted to monitoring equipment for vibration analysis and equipment protection.
Because the sensor does not touch the rotating shaft, it can operate continuously on machinery running at high speed.
