April 8, 2009 - The new MINI Analog Shunt Transducer from Phoenix Contact is ideal for converting and isolating mV signals from shunt resistors. The new transducer features three-way 1.5 kV isolation, low power consumption and high-quality signal transmission. Current shunt resistors are precision resistors used in the measurement of DC electrical currents by creating a voltage drop across the resistor. The MINI Analog Shunt Transducer then filters, isolates and converts this mV signal to a standard analog current or voltage signal.
The transducer can be configured to accept -50mV to 3V drops. The signal output is also configurable to commonly used analog signals.The MINI Analog family has a 6.2mm thin housing and T-Bus power bus capabilities that save space and drastically reduce installation time.
The hot-swappable signal conditioning slices simply clip onto the powering T-Bus connector without removing bus bars or bridging.Phoenix Contact is a world leader in electrical connection, electronic interface and industrial automation technologies. Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. KG, Blomberg, Germany, operates 46 international subsidiaries, including Phoenix Contact USA in Middletown, Pa. Global sales exceed more than1 billion euro annually.
Phoenix Contact's formal Integrated Management System is registered to ISO quality, environmental and safety standards (ISO 9001:2008,14001:2004 and 18001:2007).
