EPRO CON011 9200-00001 Eddy Current Signal Converter
1. Product Description
The EPRO CON011 9200-00001 is a high-precision eddy current signal converter designed for industrial machinery monitoring and non-destructive testing applications. As part of Emerson EPro’s MMS 6000 system, it converts raw eddy current signals from sensors (e.g., PR6422/…, PR6423/…, PR6426/…) into standardized analog or digital outputs, enabling real-time measurements of shaft displacement, vibration, oil film thickness, and more. Its robust design and compliance with international standards like API 670 and ISO 10817-1 make it a trusted choice for critical infrastructure in industries such as power generation, petrochemicals, and manufacturing.
