AcuAMP™ is a family of high performance current sensors offering outstanding features, flexibility and durability at an incredible price. Choose from a wide selection of Current Transducer and Current Switch models, all designed in a rugged industry standard feed-through package, consisting of both fixed core and split core transducer models. Each model has multiple input ranges (set by movable jumpers for some models, and on-board potentiometers for others) for maximum flexibility across many current ratings. AcuAMP high performance current transducers and switches offer outstanding features, flexibility and durability. All models carry a five-year warranty. Current transducer prices start at $73. Current switch prices begin at $63.
AcuAMP Current Sensing Switches- ACS150, ACS200 and ACSX SeriesAcuAMPTM is a family of high performance single phace AC current sensors offering outstanding features, flexibility and durability at an incredible price. Choose from a wide selection of Current Transducer and Current Switch models, all designed in a rugged industry standard feed-through package, consisting of both fixed core and split core models. Each current sensor model has multiple input ranges (set by movable jumpers for some models, and on-board potentiometers for others) for maximum flexibility across many current ratings. AcuAMP current operated switches combine a current transformer, signal conditioner and limit alarm into a single package
- The Current Switch outputs are isolated solid state switches and are available in Normally Open and Normally Closed configurations.
- Also offered in the Current Switch series is a unit with field-adjustable time delay.
- All current switches are panel-mountable as standard and convenient din-rail adaptor accessories are available.
- AcuAMP single phase AC current switches are now available in both N.O. and N.C. output configurations.
- Adjustable setpoint range of 1 to 150 amps and universal, solid-state outputs
- The self-powered ACS150 can be tailored to provide accurate and dependable digital indication of over-current conditions across a broad range of applications
- Available in fixed-core and split-core enclosure styles.
ACS200 Series - Multi Range AC Current Operated Switches ACS200 series current operated switches provide the same dependable status indication as the ACS150 series, but with added resolution. A choice of three jumper-selectable input ranges allows the ACS200 to be tailored to an application and provides more precision in setpoint adjustment.
- Self-powered, isolated solid-state relay outputs, multiple input ranges
- Choice of split-core or fixed-core enclosures
- Five-year warranty are standard
ACSX Series - Multi Range AC Current Operated Switches with Time DelayThe ACSX series high-performance current-operated switch has a field-adjustable time delay feature that minimizes nuisance trips during start-up and operation.
- These switches are designed for motor status applications where setpoint accuracy and repeatability are critical
- Offer a linear setpoint characteristic and constant hysteresis ACSX switches with time delay start at $79.00 (ACSX200-AE-F) Current Sensing Transducers – ACT and ACTR SeriesACT and ACTR series acuAMP current transducers combine a current transformer and signal conditioner into a single package.
- Full-scale input ranges are user-selectable from 2A to 2000 A.
- Current transducer output choices include 4-20 mA (24 VDC loop-powered) and 0-10 volt (self powered) analog outputs.
- All models are panel-mountable as standard and convenient din-rail adaptor accessories are available.
- New AcuAMP single phase AC current transducers with fixed core and jumper selectable inputs from 375 amps all the way up to 2000 amps. Output is 4-20ma. Also available in true RMS.
- Automation Systems
- Analog current reading for remote monitoring and software alarms
- Data Loggers
- Self-powered transducer helps conserve data logger batteries
- Split-core enclosures make using portable data loggers easy
- Panel Meters
- Simple connection displays power consumption or other motor status
- 4-20 mA or 0-10 VDC outputs
- Factory matched and calibrated single piece transducer is more accurate than traditional two-piece field installed products
- Average responding algorithm gives an RMS output on pure sine waves
- Perfect for constant speed (linear) loads or On/Off loads
- Three jumper-selectable input ranges per transducer allow end-users to tailor sensing ranges and improves the odds of having the right range for the job
- Output is magnetically isolated from the input for safety
- Eliminates voltage drop
- UL, cUL, CE approvals accepted worldwide
- and ... 5 Year Warranty
- ACTR (True RMS) SeriesACTR series AcuAMP™ current transducers combine a current transformer and a True RMS signal conditioner into a single package. Full-scale input ranges are user-selectable from 2A to 2000 A. They are available in 4 to 20 mA output only. The ACTR Series provides True RMS output on distorted waveforms found on VFD or SCR outputs, and on linear loads in “noisy” power environments. Available in a split-core or fixed-core case. Applications
- VFD Controlled Loads
- VFD output indicates how the motor and attached load are operating
- SCR Controlled Loads
- Accurate measurement of phase angle fired or burst fired (time proportioned) SCRs
- Current measurement gives faster response than temperature measurement
- Panel Meters
- True RMS sensing is the most accurate way to measure power supply or ballast input power
- 4-20 mA output
- True RMS technology is accurate on distorted waveforms like VFD or SCR outputs
- Jumper-selectable ranges
- Reduces inventory
- Eliminates zero and span pots
- Isolation
- Output is magnetically isolated from the input for safety
- Eliminates insertion loss (voltage drop)
- UL, cUL, CE approvals accepted worldwide
- and ... 5 Year Warranty
ACTR series true RMS AC current transducers are priced from $125.00 (ACTR050-42L-F)
