CT-PCB

Product Overview DC Current Transformer Series
CT-PCB
Current or Voltage Output
Closed-loop current transformer technology allows accurate monitoring of DC and AC
bipolar currents up to ±52A with a small PCB-mount device.
Galvanic isolation between primary and secondary conductor for simple current
sensing at different potential.
Standard current output and voltage output (“V”-version) available.
