Pulse Jack SIDEWINDER® - CURRENT SENSOR PA3828NL Series Electronics ® Unique, Clamp On AC current sensor Can be installed without disconnecting wires Multiple Open and Close, up to 100 times Current Range from 0.1 to 100 Amps AC 1% Accuracy Class Patent Pending Electrical Specifications at 25°C Temp Range -40°C to 130°C Actual Secondary Output Voltage (Vsa) Part Number Kr4 (µΩ/Hz typ) Pri-Sec Isolation (V min) Ls5 (mH typ) Rs6 (Ohms typ) SRF7 (Hz typ) @ 50 Hz (µV/A)1 @ 60 Hz (µV/A)1 PA3828NL 6.12 1,500 0.895 33.5 300,000 310 372 NOTES: EQUATIONS: Vsa = KrFrIpa Fr << SRF 1. Output Voltage is proportional to the derivative (di/dt) of the input current based on the Rogowski Coil principle. 2. All current and voltages assumed to be sinusoidal waveforms at Fr, the constant rated frequency in Hz, measured as RMS values. 3. Accuracy Class per IEC 60044-1 Table 11 where: • Percentage current error = ((Kr•Fr•Ipa - Vout) / Vout) x 100 • Phase displacement = the difference between the primary current (Ipa) phase vector and the (secondary voltage (Vout) phase vector minus 90 degrees), in minutes 4. Kr = Rated transformation constant 5. Ls = Secondary winding inductance 6. Rs = Secondary winding resistance 7. SRF = Self Resonate Frequency 8. Ipa = Actual primary current 9. Vsa = Actual secondary output voltage Low Frequency Equivalent Circuit RS Ipa LS Vsa = Kr Fr I pa Vout Vsa Fr << SRF Mechanical PA3828NL 1 pulseelectronics.com P734.A (6/14) Pulse Jack SIDEWINDER® - CURRENT SENSOR PA3828NL Series Electronics Schematic PA3828NL 1 2 3 4 5 For More Information Pulse Worldwide Headquarters 12220 World Trade Drive San Diego, CA 92128 U.S.A.
