AC Current

M100 AC Current Transducer

Selection Guide
M100-AA1 1 ph. self powered average sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-AL1 1 ph. aux. powered average sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-AR1 1 ph. aux powered true RMS sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-AA3 3 ph. self powered average sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-AL3 3 ph. aux powered average sensing RMS calibrated.

Typical Applications
The M100 series current transducers are designed to measure A.C. current in single and three phase systems. They convert the A.C. signal to a D.C. output that is directly proportional to the input signal.
The M100-AA1 and M100-AA3 are self powered (no auxiliary required), average sensing, RMS calibrated current transducers with either a milli-amp or voltage output.
The M100-AL1 and M100-AL3 are average sensing, RMS calibrated, live zero current transducers. Auxiliary is required to provide power to enable a 4mA output signal when the input poes to zero.
The M100-AR1 is a true RMS sensing, RMS calibrated transducer allowing  the measurement of distorted waveforms of up to 9th harmonic with a crest factor of 5. The M100-AR1 is typically used in current measurement where a distorted waveform is common such as thyristor drives.
The above units are used to measure current in energy management systems, switchboards, generator and telemetery controls.
Isolation of 4kV is provided between the input and output, allowing the output to be fed to conventional analogue meters, digital meters, PLC, and computer systems.

Special AC Current

M100 Special AC Current Transducer

Selection Guide
M100-AX1 1 ph. auxiliary powered average sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-AX3 3 ph. auxiliary powered average sensing RMS calibrated.
M100-ALS 3 ph. summation auxiliary powered.

Typical Applications
The M100-AX1 and M100-AX3 are essentially the same as the M100-AA1 and M100-AA3 but they have auxiliary power supplies allowing the working range to be 0-125% rather than 10-125%. They are used where the average sensing of current is required from 0-125% of the nominal current. The M100-AAS and M100-ALS are A.C. current summation transducers. Both can have up to 3 inputs of either 1, 5 or 10A. The inputs are summed by the transducer and one D.C. output is provided, which is proportional to the sum of the inputs. The M100-AAS is self powered with a range of 10-125%, the M100-ALS is auxiliary powered and provides a 4-20mA output with a working range of 0-125%.
Typical application is to measure the total current in a three phase system and display it via one meter.
For example, if a three phase system has 3 current transformers 2500/5 then a moving coil meter could be connected to a M100-AAS scaled 0-7500. Note the C.T.s must all have the same ratio or the output from the transducer will not be the sum of the total current in the system.

DC Current / Voltage

M100 DC Current or Voltage 4kV or 1.5kV Isolation Transducers

Selection Guide
M100-DA1 DC current input 4kV isolation
M100-DV1 DC voltage 20mV..11.9V input 4kV isolation
M100-DV2 DC voltage 12V..600V input 4kV isolation

M100-DA1I DC current input 1.5kV isolation
M100-DV1I DC voltage 20mV..11.9V input 1.5kV isolation
M100-DV2I DC voltage 12V..600V input 1.5kV isolation

Typical Applications
These isolators isolate the DC input signal from the DC output signal, which is directly proportional to the input signal. There are two levels of isolation offered, the M100-DA1/DV1/DV2 have 4kV isolation and the M100-DA1I/DV1I/DV2I have 1.5kV isolation.
A wide range of both D.C. Current and voltage inputs are offered.
Typically these isolators can be used to prevent earth loops, which occur when an earthed measuring source is connected to a computer or data logger that is also earthed. Another common use is to provide isolation on the inputs to a PLC. All of the above isolators have either A.C. or D.C. auxiliaries which means they have an advantage over loop powered units, in that if for any reason the output lead should become disconnected, the input will not be saturated.

Typical Applications
The M100-DM3 takes 1 DC input signal and provides 3 isolated outputs all directly proportional to the input. The outputs can all be of the same D.C. value or different. Typically this product is used to prevent earth loops between measuring devices.

An M100-DM3 could have its input signal provided by a M100-WA4 watt transducer with 4-20mA output.
The 3 outputs from the M100-DM3 could be as follows.
Output A: 4-20mA fed to a PLC.
Output B: 0-20mA fed to an analogue meter scaled in kW.

DC Current Summation

M100 DC Current Summation Transducers

Selection Guide
M100-DS1 DC current 1 input
M100-DS2 DC current 2 inputs
M100-DS3 DC current 3 inputs
M100-DS4 DC current 4 inputs

Typical Applications
The M100-DS series of summation transducers take up to four inputs and provide an output signal directly proportional to the sum of the inputs.
For example:
A typical application is the summation of power of four separate generating sets.
Four individual kW readings are provided by M100-WA4 transducers with 0-1mA output signals. The M100-DS4 summates the four 0-1mA signals and provides a single output signal that is directly proportional to the sum of the total power of all four generators.

It is important to note that the current and voltage ratios must be identical otherwise the subsequent summation will be inaccurate.
