The
DCflex
'Snap-Shot' DC current measurement |
|
The DCflex dc ammeter probe is an easy to use, economical,
clip-around / split core DC current probe
It is ideal for the measurement
of
large DC currents from 2000A to greater than 300,000A, meaning that large dc currents in plating, chemical processes and
aluminum smelting plant,
can be verified -
without system shutdown or installing shunts
The probe takes a single
shot measurement of the dc current with a typical accuracy of
better than 1%.
Thin, flexible, clip-around
coil in standard lengths of 1m and 2m. 4m coils possible.
Intrinsically safe, galvanically isolated measurement
Battery powered with
integral LCD display, no need for external oscilloscopes or meters
Easy to use
System shutdown is not
necessary

Easy
Clip around operation |
|

As the sense coil is clipped around the
conductor, it creates a current pulse from DC

|
| How it works |
The Rogowski coil responds to a change of current from zero to the DC value
flowing,
determined by the user wrapping the coil around the conductor. Once the user has
performed this action the DC Flex's peak hold meter holds the dc
measurement. The
signal conditioner-integrator is supplied with a meter and zero adjustment which
is set before a measurement is made. The DCFlex's instantaneous output
provides a useful output for ripple measurement.
