ACREL AKH-0.66 K Series Split Core Current Transformer

The ACREL AKH-0.66 K Series Split Core Current Transformer is designed to transform AC current into a lower secondary signal suitable for connection to measurement and monitoring equipment. Depending on the selected version, the series supports secondary outputs including 1 A, 5 A and mA or mV signal options.

The split core construction allows the transformer to be fitted around an existing cable. This makes the series particularly useful for electrical modification and monitoring projects where disconnecting or removing the primary conductor is not practical.

How it works

• The primary cable passes through the transformer's aperture and carries the AC current being measured.
• The transformer converts the primary current into a lower secondary current or signal.
• The secondary output can then be connected to compatible measurement, metering or monitoring equipment.
• The split core design allows the transformer to be installed around an existing cable without removing the primary conductor.

Why choose this product

• Split core construction simplifies installation on existing electrical circuits.
• Multiple aperture sizes are available to accommodate different cable sizes.
• The series provides different secondary output configurations for different measurement systems.
• The range covers applications requiring conventional 1 A or 5 A secondary current as well as mA and mV signal outputs.

Benefits

• Suitable for electrical monitoring and measurement projects.
• Supports retrofit work where access to an existing cable is required.
• Provides a choice of transformer sizes and output configurations.
• Can be integrated with compatible meters and monitoring equipment.
