CR Magnetics, Inc. has introduced a new split-core current transformer specifically designed to attach around a current carrying wire
without interruption. The new CR Magnetics split-core current transformer is the smallest size available in the industry and has a
very low cost. The new split-core current transformer features 3,000 turn secondary capacity with maximum continuous rated primary current of 60 Amps.
The new split-core transformer is designed for operation in 50/60 Hz systems with 6" long, #18 PVC wire leads. The transformer has an
internal voltage suppression device that clamps the output voltage to 7.0 volts. An output signal is provided proportional to the input current
with accuracy of +/ - 2%.
A key benefit of this new transformer is the extremely easy and simple attachment to the current carrying wire. The window is easily opened,
attached to the wire, and then securely closed with a locking snap. The window opening of the new CR Magnetics split-core current
transformer will accommodate current carrying wires up to 0.35” dia. Operating temperature range is 0° to +60°C. Case size is 1.5”
high x 1.0” wide x 1.0” deep.
