EPRO CON011 MMS Series Signal Converter

Configured for converting eddy current sensor displacement signals into standardized analog outputs in EPRO MMS machinery protection systems, the EPRO CON011 (CON011 Signal Converter) provides direct physical/electrical execution. It transforms high-frequency raw carrier waves into calibrated voltage signals to evaluate rotor dynamics, axial position, and shaft vibration across critical industrial rotating machinery.

Hardware Specifications

Eddy-Current Probe Scaling & Rotor Dynamics Analysis

The CON011 conditions high-frequency raw carrier waves originating from non-contact displacement sensors, executing precise eddy-current probe scaling across static and dynamic measurement profiles. By establishing rigorous gap voltage validation (-10 VDC targets) during static calibration, the module establishes baseline zero points critical for evaluating axial position, radial shaft vibration, and rotor dynamics. Internal drive circuitry suppresses cross-talk interference when multiple probes operate in close proximity, delivering high-fidelity output signals suitable for monitoring severe vibration and thermal expansion events on turbomachinery shafts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What sensor series connect directly to the CON011 signal converter module?

A: The CON011 connects directly to PR6422, PR6423, PR6424, and PR6426 eddy current proximity probes. Note that PR6425 probes require the extended-range configuration of the CON011 module.

Q: What electrical output signals does the CON011 generate for downstream TSI systems?

A: The module outputs a negative DC voltage proportional to static probe gap distance (-4 V to -20 V or -2 V to -18 V) overlaid with an AC voltage component representing real-time shaft vibration.

Q: Is the CON011 suitable for direct field mounting in hazardous or harsh industrial environments?

A: Yes. The CON011 is constructed inside a GD-AlSi9Cu3 aluminum alloy housing rated to IP65 ingress protection, permitting installation inside field junction boxes exposed to dust and moisture.

Field Installation Guidelines

Mount the CON011 housing firmly onto a grounded metallic plate or DIN rail inside a protective field junction box using the integrated mounting flanges. Terminate sensor extension cables directly into the sealed internal screw terminals, taking care to maintain shield continuity through the cable gland. Verify that the system power supply provides clean -24 VDC power and route output signal wiring inside dedicated shielded conduits separated from AC power cables to prevent electromagnetic noise induction.
