Current Sensors
North American current sensors detect electric current in a wire, generating a proportional signal for measurement and control
Features
The Schneider Electric range of current sensor products deliver high performance, reliable current monitoring for many applications including fan status, belt loss, and most Variable Speed Drive (VSD) applications.
Current switches detect changes in a conductor’s current/amperage and provide a digital output to Building Management System (BMS) controllers. The current switches are available in solid-core versions for new projects and split-core versions to accommodate retrofits.
Current transducers detect changes in a conductor’s current/amperage and provide an analog output (4-20mA, 0-5 VDC, 0-10VDC) to Building Management System (BMS) controllers and other systems. The current transducers are available in solid-core versions for new projects and split-core versions to accommodate retrofits.
