The 12mm tip generates a wider electromagnetic field, allowing the sensor to track shaft movements over a 4mm span without losing linearity. This is critical for preventing \"rubs\" between the rotor and stator during startup and shutdown cycles. The 5-meter integrated cable facilitates direct routing to local junction boxes without the signal loss associated with intermediate connectors. Hermetically sealed and oil-resistant, this sensor maintains sub-micron precision even when submerged in lubricating oil or exposed to high-velocity steam environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy use the 12mm PR6424 instead of the 8mm PR6423?\u003c\/strong\u003eThe PR6424 offers double the linear measurement range (4mm vs 2mm). This makes it essential for monitoring axial thrust position or differential expansion where the expected movement exceeds the capacity of an 8mm probe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 5-meter cable length fixed?\u003c\/strong\u003eYes, the \"003\" code signifies a 5.0m cable. Since eddy current systems are calibrated based on the total electrical length (sensor cable + extension cable), you must ensure your driver is matched for this specific 5m configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I verify the target material compatibility?\u003c\/strong\u003eStandard calibration is for AISI 4140 steel. If your shaft is made of a different alloy (e.g., stainless steel or chrome-moly), the voltage-to-gap curve will shift, and the driver must be recalibrated for that specific material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat mounting precautions should I take?\u003c\/strong\u003eEnsure the mounting bracket is rigid. Any vibration in the sensor bracket itself will be interpreted as shaft vibration, creating \"false\" alarms in your monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EMERSON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46632185495742,"sku":"PR6424\/003-030","price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/1145\/5422\/files\/emerson-pr6423-010-140-con021-eddy-current-displacement-transducer-dwnqys04ekd.png?v=1772090855","url":"https:\/\/www.autooiltech.com\/products\/emerson-epro-pr6424-003-030-eddy-current-displacement-sensor","provider":"AutoOilTech Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
