similar ferromagnetic alloy. Using non-standard materials may require recalibration of the signal converter to account for different eddy current properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ2: Can the 10-meter cable be shortened in the field?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA2: No, the cable length is an integral part of the sensor's tuned circuit. Shortening or extending the cable directly will change the system impedance and result in significant measurement errors. Always use the factory-supplied length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ3: How does the sensor handle high-pressure environments inside a gearbox?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA3: The PR6423 series is designed with a pressure-tight tip, capable of withstanding up to 10 bar (145 psi) at the sensing face, making it suitable for submerged or pressurized oil-lubricated applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEngineering \u0026amp; Installation Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGap Voltage Setting:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDuring installation, the sensor must be positioned at its electrical center (typically -10 VDC for a standard converter).
