Technical Specifications

• Sensor Type: Vibration Sensor
• Model Number: PR6426/010-140
  • Measurement Range: Typically used for measuring vibration in machinery, with sensitivity and range suitable for monitoring various types of industrial equipment.
  • Frequency Range: The sensor is designed to cover a wide frequency range, making it capable of detecting a broad spectrum of vibration conditions, including low-frequency structural vibrations and high-frequency mechanical faults.
  • Output Signal: The sensor outputs an analog signal proportional to the vibration level, which is then processed by the connected module.
• Connection Module: CON021/916-200
  • Interface Type: The CON021 module is used to interface the vibration sensor with the monitoring system. It provides signal conditioning and ensures the integrity of the signal over longer cable runs.
  • Power Supply: The module typically requires a low voltage power supply, often in the range of 24V DC, to operate both the sensor and the signal processing circuitry.
  • Signal Processing: This module may include basic signal processing features such as filtering and amplification, preparing the signal for analysis by the main monitoring system.
  • Connectivity: The CON021 module usually has terminals or connectors to link the sensor output to the condition monitoring system or data acquisition system.

Features

• High Sensitivity: The sensor is designed for high sensitivity, capable of detecting even minor vibrations that could indicate the early stages of machinery failure.
• Robust Construction: Both the sensor and the connecting module are built to withstand harsh industrial environments, including exposure to high temperatures, dust, moisture, and mechanical shocks.
• Versatile Mounting Options: The sensor can be mounted directly on various types of machinery, including motors, pumps, turbines, and compressors, using different mounting options (e.g., studs, adhesives, or magnetic bases).
• Integrated System Compatibility: The PR6426 sensor and CON021 module are designed to integrate seamlessly with Emerson’s condition monitoring systems, such as the CSI 6500, providing a unified platform for machinery health monitoring.

Application Scenarios
