AC Split-Core Current Applications
You don’t have to sacrifice accuracy to take advantage of
the easy installation provided by using an AC split-core current transducer
instead of a solid-core design. Any load from 200 to 800 amps can be monitored
accurately using NK Technologies’ AT or ATR current transducers in the MS case.
The split-core case allows the conductors to remain in place, and the base can
be snapped on to a DIN rail, attached with screws to a control panel or
suspended from the conductors using nylon cable ties. Some applications where
the use of this type of transducers is ideal include:
Pump Monitoring:
Monitoring the current used by a pump will
help to detect several problems that need immediate attention: Loss of head
pressure and open discharge will cause the current to drop, and either can
damage the equipment or the environment quickly. Bearing wear and impeller
cavitation will be reflected in a rise in current. By mapping this increase
over time, the equipment can be maintained or repaired before a catastrophic
failure occurs.
Crusher/Grinder/Shredder Operation:
Crushers, shredders, and grinding processes
are notoriously hard on the drive components. Inconsistent material density,
foreign objects, and over loading the in feed can cause the drive motor current
to spike. If these spikes occur without sufficient time to dissipate the heat
generated, the motor insulation will suffer. With enough over loading a shaft
might break, and the drop in current will indicate the motor is still turning
but the rest of the operation is at a stand still.
Lumber Milling and Processing:
Lumber processing requires heavy duty
machines, using massive hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical systems. Monitoring
the current used by a log carriage will help the operator feed the cut with
little burning. The saw blade can also be monitored as it will draw more
current as the teeth become dulled.
The Split Core are widely applied to power electronics, new energy, aerospace and aviation, information, communication, etc.
