Advantages • High isolation between primary and secondary circuits • Eliminates insertion loss • Easy installation. Applications • AC power supplies or Motors: True r.m.s. current sensing - the most accurate way to monitor power supply or motor input power • VFD Controlled Loads: General data TA TS m IPxx Ambient operating temperature Ambient storage temperature Mass Protection degree - 40 .. + 70 - 40 .. + 85 260 IP20 °C °C g VFD output current monitoring to indicate how the motor and the attached load are operating • SCRs or Switch-mode Rectifiers: Accurate measurement of output current • Renewable Energy Installations or Backup Batteries: Note : 1) The max. peak AC current is the highest peak level of the primary signal that is taken into account for accurate true r.m.s. calculation. Yet the device is designed for maximum continuous true r.m.s. value equal to I PN, whereas the output is limited by the above specified output limitation. Continuous condition minitoring allowing automatic failure detection/ anticipation.

Installation and maintenance should be done with main power supply disconnected. The operator must have an accreditation to install this material. Caution! Risk of electrical shock When operating the transducer, certain parts of the module can carry hazardous voltage (e.g. primary conductor). Ignoring this warning can lead to injury and/or cause serious damage. The user must take care of all protection guarantee against electrical shock. This transducer is a built-in device, whose conducting parts must be inaccessible after installation. A protective housing or additional shield could be used.
