CTA3ph Flexible Current Transformer 0-5A output

CTA3ph Flexible Current Sensing Current Transformers

The CTA3ph Flexible Current Transformers are designed to provide fast installation in energy management, power monitoring, and current sensing applications. These transformers use advanced Rogowski Coil sensing technology, which allows for non-invasive installation without the need to move or reconfigure busbars or feeder cables. With a 0-5A output and a wide range of input capacities, these transformers are ideal for energy monitoring in confined spaces or installations where conventional current transformers (CTs) cannot be used.
Key Features:

Flexible Rogowski Coil Technology: Provides a 5A output, ideal for compatibility with existing 5A metering circuits.
Split-Core Design: Allows for fast and easy installation, even in live systems, or during short shutdown periods.
Wide Range of Current Sensing: Models available from 0-100A up to 0-10,000A.
High Accuracy: Available in 0.25%, 0.5%, or 1.0% accuracy classes.
Extended Distance Capability: Driving cable distances from 1m (3ft) up to 500m (1640ft).
Safety: Insulated for 1kV continuous, tested at 7.4kV.
Multiple Output Ratings: Available in 2.5VA, 5VA, or 7.5VA ratings, depending on cable length and load requirements.
Flexible Cable Length: Standard cable lengths from 3m to 500m, with custom lengths available upon request.

Benefits:

No Open Circuit Hazards: Unlike conventional CTs, the CTA3ph flexible current transformers pose no open circuit voltage risks, making them safe for live installations.
Retrospective Installation: Suitable for energy monitoring applications in facilities such as hospitals, shopping centers, banks, and server farms.
Durable and Lightweight: Constructed from flame-retardant UL94V0 materials, the flexible, lightweight sensor can be easily installed in confined spaces.
Compatible with Existing Systems: Ideal for upgrading older metering systems and retrofitting in energy management systems without plant shutdowns.
Accurate Monitoring: Provides accurate power, energy, and current monitoring, with a flat frequency response from 25Hz to 500Hz.

Applications:

Energy Management Systems: Compatible with legacy and modern systems for accurate energy monitoring.
Retrospective Energy Monitoring: Ideal for installations in hospitals, banks, office buildings, and renewable energy systems.
Power Quality Analysis: Used for power monitoring, harmonic analysis, and active harmonic cancellation feedback signals.
Fast Installation: Allows for live installation without system shutdown, reducing costly downtimes.
