Description
The MSCT Analog Current Sensors are designed for use in any AC current monitoring application in which you are looking to monitor a piece of equipment for proper operation
- Accuracy
- With the steady decrease in operating currents on today’s equipment, the MSCT Series current sensors have the industry’s highest accuracy
- This enables you to better monitor the current used in your applications, as well as make better maintenance decisions to ensure your systems run as efficiently as possible
- Output
- The MSCTA-40 is offered in a 2 wire 4-20 mA loop powered output
- The MSCTE-40 is offered in a 0-5 VDC output
- The MSCT current sensors are available in a split-core version and can monitor up to 40 A
- Design
- The MSCT current sensors use an “Average” current measuring method and should be used in applications where a pure Sinusoidal AC waveform that has very little or no distortion/noise on the conductor being monitored
- Applications may include monitoring a resistive type load such as an incandescent light bulb or heating element as well as any single speed linear load
- For best results, the MSCT current sensors should not be used in applications with switching power supplies or variable speed drives due to the limited operating frequency range
- Installation
- The MSCT current sensors can be secured to the monitored cable using a cable tie and the integrated cable tie anchor feature of the housing
- The MSCT also comes with an attachable mounting foot that allows the unit to be mounted in any position using one Tek screw or snapped directly on a 35 mm DIN rail
- Applications
- Load Trending
- Single Speed Loads
- Pumps
- Compressors
- Fans
- Preventative Maintenance
- LEED
- Project Justification (Calculating ROI)
- Process Control
