Danisense launches new current transducer with large aperture for automotive (EV) test benches & battery testing
Key points:
Large aperture of 41.2mm for power cables with big power connectors
Nominal current of 1000 Arms
Linearity 1 ppm
Taastrup, Denmark, February 2023…Danisense, the leader in high-accuracy current sense transducers for demanding applications, today announced the release of its latest current transducer mainly aimed at automotive (EV) test benches and battery testing & evaluation systems. Featuring a very large aperture of 41.2mm, the DN1000ID current transducer enables power cables with large power connectors to be easily fitted to EV test benches allowing for quick changeovers.
The large aperture is an important advantage as test bench operators often face the issue that the power connectors fitted to the power cables are bigger than the diameter of the cable, making it difficult to fit them in the aperture of the current transducer and often requiring additional work to solve this issue. Comments Loic Moreau at Danisense: “Our new DN1000ID device now offers the best compromise between the 1000A nominal current and aperture size by keeping the best measuring performances in accuracy and phase shift.”
Like all Danisense products the DN1000ID current transducers benefit from the high stability closed loop fluxgate technology. Further technical details include a linearity of 1 ppm, 5 ppm offset and a compact aluminium housing. Additional target applications for the product are power measurement and power analysis, MPS for particle accelerators, gradient amplifiers for MRI devices, precision drives as well as current calibration purposes.
