Fluxgate current transducer NICs

DIN railACDC

The NIC (Non-Intrusive Current Monitor) is used as part of the preventative maintenance systems on wayside applications. The DIN rail mounted NIC units are designed to measure AC/DC currents up to +/-600mA when the primary cable is passed through the hole on the side of the unit. The NIC provides a scaled 4-20mA current output to the end users’ equipment. This may take the form of a data logger which stores the raw data that can then be remotely downloaded for analysis. Data analysis allows for trends to be visualised for equipment that might show degradation , i.e. current variations outside normal limit, thus allowing targeted maintenance to be carried out before actual failure. Features: Non-contact measurement of DC currents up to ±600mA. 4 to 20mA current output. Current trip with relay output. LED trip indicator. 24V DC power supply. Supply Reverse Polarity protection. DIN rail mounting. Unipolar versions also available. Benefits: Enables significant reduction in manual routine inspection. Ability to ‘fix before failure’. Network Rail and SNCF approved. Intelligent infrastructure initiative for remote condition monitoring and proactive maintenance.
