DC-CT (Direct Current Transducer)
The necessity to measure currents in the industry has been, together with sensing voltage , the most important tools for proceedings control’s. However, current sensing is more complicated than voltage sensing, specially with DC currents. There are many solutions for current measurement, such as conventional current transformers, shunt resistors, hall effect sensors or rogowsky coils, which have been used for many years, but all of them have the same problem: a bad response operating at high currents and high frequencies. On the other hand, not all of them share measurements of AC and DC currents simultaneously. Another problem is the high temperature variation of some sensors, for example the hall effect sensors. INNEXIV’s DC CT sensors can measure, DC currents up to 200A DC .
