Yokogawa CT1000S – AC/DC Split Core Current Sensor
This AC/DC split core current sensor is designed to measure large DC and AC currents in applications like electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, inverters, and motors. It enables high-current measurements by clamping around existing current connections. Featuring a voltage output, this sensor is compatible with power analyzers (WT series and PX8000) and waveform measurement instruments (ScopeCorders and DLM series), making it a versatile tool for various high-current measurement needs.
Large Current and Wide Bandwidth Measurement
Mechanisms that convert DC power to AC using an inverter are widely used in various industrial fields, including electric vehicles (EVs). With the push towards decarbonization, enhancing the efficiency of inverters has become a critical goal. Inverter outputs with PWM control contain harmonic components, necessitating a current sensor capable of measuring a wide bandwidth.
Compatibile Configurations with Measurement Instruments
The CT1000S is compatible with various power analyzers and waveform measurement instruments. To operate the current sensor, a power supply is necessary. You can utilize the power supply option available on the measuring instrument, or connect an external power supply. It’s important to note that depending on the power supply type, there may be a maximum limit to the number of current sensors that can be operated with a single power supply. Please refer to the list below for the specific number of sensors that can be used.
