chieving Reliability With HARTING’s Current Sensors – Alltronix India

1. For any kind of commercial or industrial applications, it is important that the electronics used are able to quickly and accurately detect current so that all kinds of power electronic systems like UPS systems, frequency converters, tractions converters, etc. can be precisely controlled. HARTING current sensors have been specifically designed to measure high currents in such environments to prove to be reliable, safe, and precise. These sensors are available for currents from 200A to 2000A, with a measuring range of up to 4000A. HARTING current sensors can be used in even the most extreme conditions, which is why they are used in wind turbines, solar inverters, and in drive controls for machines and cranes. These sensors can be easily integrated into existing application as they have standard installation dimensions, making the installation fast and safe. HARTING’s current sensors use the magnetic field created by the current flowing through the conductor to carry out an electrically isolated measurement. There are two main measuring principles that can be used – closed loop (available for demanding measurement tasks), and open loop (available for lesser demanding requirements). Current sensors for industrial applications HARTING’s HCM series offers special current sensors whose functionality is based on the closed loop principle, making them fit for use in industrial applications. They possess excellent measuring accuracy and short response times, which makes them ideally suited for precise control tasks. Both direct and alternating currents can be

These current sensors are available in a variety of sizes and designs, and use a robust termination technique, including mating connectors for safe connections even during operations. They are suitable for use even under severe temperature conditions ranging between -40°C to +85°C. Current sensors for railway applications HARTING’s HCMR series of current sensors are specifically designed to comply with the requirements of railway applications. Their functionality is based on the closed loop principle. These sensors too have excellent measuring accuracy and short response times, making them suitable too for precise control tasks. They have a robust design, and a high degree of protection against over-voltage, which helps them to avoid faulty switching during operation. Moreover, these sensors also come with internal EMC shielding that ensures excellent operational safety. These sensors can also be used under critical conditions where the temperature ranges between -40 °C and +85 °C. Current sensors for high currents HARTING’s HCME current sensors work according to the open loop principle that uses rectangular cores and direct mapping. Space is significantly saved with these compact current sensors, which helps them to be easily installed on a power rail. All kinds of direct, alternating, and mixed currents can be measured that lie within the frequency range of up to 50 kHz. These current sensors can also be used effectively in temperatures ranging between -40°C and +85°C. You can get all these precise, safe, and reliable current sensors at Alltronix, the leading HARTING distributor in Pune. Apart from these current sensors, you can also get all kinds of high quality connectors, encoders, high speed backplanes, and PCB terminals from HARTING.
