August 2, 2011 - NK Technologies introduces ATQ Series Frequency Output Current Transducers. With an open collector transistor frequency output design, the ATQ series is used as an input to high speed counter or frequency PLC modules, panel meters or programmable relays, to accurately monitor machine current usage to within ± 1 percent of range. Multiple ranges from 0-2 to 0-200 amps are available to provide resolution that fits the needs of the particular applications. A split-core enclosure simplifies installation by eliminating the need to disconnect the monitored conductor to install the sensor. The ATQ series are intended for use where no analog inputs are available. The ATQ series is well suited for use in motion and motor control applications such as pump, grinder and fan motor monitoring status, belt jam sensing in conveyor applications and motor control in deburring / brush operations. They are also effective as an electronic shear pin to detect strain. Additionally, ATQ current transducers are ideal for measuring current use in machine tools, polishing and cutting operations where a small PLC has sufficient capacity to accept the sensor inputs measuring speed, time-of-use and electrical demands of the equipment.
