2. Description
The MCR-S-...-DCI, active current transducers convert direct, alternating and distorted currents from 0...
0.2 A to 0...11 A (MCR-S-1-5-...-DCI) and from 0...9.5 A to 0...55 A (MCR-S-10-50-...-DCI) to analog
standard signals.
On the output side, the analog standard signals of 0(4)...20 mA, 0(2)...10 V, ±10 V, 0(1)...5 V, ±5 V with
simple (e.g. 0...10 V) and inverse (e.g. 10...0 V) signal flow direction can be used.
An option for the current transducers with threshold output (MCR-S-...-SW-DCI) is a PNP transistor swit-
ching output (80 mA) and a relay switching output (2 A).
2.1. Method of operation
Connecting to the input terminal blocks (MCR-S-1-5-...-DCI), or passing the live conductor through the
current transducer (MCR-S-10-50-...-DCI) evokes a magnetic flow in the annular strip-wound core.
The density of magnetic flow is measured with the aid of a Hall sensor and converted proportionally from
the input current to a voltage (Hall voltage). A downstream true r.m.s. converter enables DC, AC and
distorted currents to be measured. The signal is amplified for further conditioning and made available at
the output as a proportional analog signal.
