Working Mechanism

  • A thin strip of conductive material is placed in a magnetic field generated by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet.
  • When a current flows through the conductor, it generates a magnetic field that interacts with the external magnetic field, causing a voltage difference to appear across the conductor.
  • This voltage difference is then measured by the sensor and converted into an output signal proportional to the current flowing through the conductor.

Standards and Approvals

  • UL
  • CSA

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a current sensor and a current transformer?

A current sensor measures the current flowing through a conductor using a magnetic or resistive element, while a current transformer uses a magnetic core.

How can I choose the right current sensor for my application?

Choosing the right current sensor depends on the type & range of current to be measured, the accuracy & resolution required and the environmental conditions of the application.

What are some common sources of measurement errors in current sensors?

Some common sources of measurement errors in current sensors include external magnetic fields, temperature variations and sensor offset or gain errors. Regular calibration and maintenance can help minimise these errors.
