ACREL Low Voltage Current Transformer for Small Space Installations
ACREL Low Voltage Current Transformer for Small Space Installations is a compact current transformer designed for current measurement and protection in low voltage electrical systems. The M8 and Double M8 versions provide direct connected installation and are suited to applications where installation space is limited, including low voltage draw out cabinets. The series supports primary current ratios from 5 to 100 amperes, with the M8 available with 5 ampere or 1 ampere secondary output depending on the selected ratio.
The ACREL Low Voltage Current Transformer for Small Space Installations are direct connected current transformers designed for low voltage electrical systems where a compact installation arrangement is required. They are particularly suited to low voltage draw out cabinets and other applications with restricted installation space.
The transformers measure primary current and provide a proportional secondary current output for use with compatible electrical measuring or protection equipment. The M8 model is available with a 5 to 100 amperes primary current ratio and a 5 ampere or 1 ampere secondary ratio, while the Double M8 version is specified with a 5 to 100 amperes to 5 amperes ratio.
The M8 version has a depth of 30 millimetres, while the Double M8 version has a depth of 56 millimetres. Both versions have the same 67 millimetre width and 86 millimetre height, with mounting dimensions of 70.8 millimetres by 80.5 millimetres.
How it works
- The transformer senses current flowing through the primary circuit.
- It converts the primary current into a proportional secondary current signal.
- The secondary output can be connected to compatible measurement or protection equipment.
- The direct connected construction is intended for fixed installation in suitable low voltage equipment.
Why choose this product
- Compact construction for applications with limited installation space.
- Designed specifically for low voltage current measurement and protection.
- Available in M8 and Double M8 configurations to suit different installation requirements.
- Provides direct connected installation with H type fixed plate mounting.
- Available across primary current ratios from 5 to 100 amperes.
Benefits
- Helps provide a suitable current signal for electrical monitoring equipment.
- Supports measurement or protection applications in low voltage distribution equipment.
- Compact dimensions can make it suitable where conventional current transformers may have limited installation space.
- The two model configurations provide different physical depths for installation planning.
