5DRL-801

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The Sifam Tinsley Instrumentation Inc. model 5DRL-801 is a current sense transformer designed for electrical measurement applications. It features an 800:5 turns ratio and supports frequency ranges from 50Hz to 400Hz. The unit utilizes a free-hanging in-line mounting configuration, allowing for flexible installation within power circuits. This component serves as a precision interface for monitoring high-current loads by stepping down the primary current to a standardized secondary output suitable for metering or protection devices.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Provides accurate current sensing through an 800:5 transformation ratio
• Operates effectively across a wide frequency spectrum from 50Hz to 400Hz
• Utilizes a free-hanging in-line design for versatile circuit integration

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Industrial power distribution monitoring
• Electrical panel current measurement
• Protection relay input interfacing

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the required frequency range aligns with your system's operational spectrum of 50Hz to 400Hz. Confirm that the physical mounting space accommodates the free-hanging in-line form factor. Ensure compatibility with downstream equipment accepting a 5A secondary output. Cross-reference the 800:5 ratio against your specific load requirements to guarantee appropriate signal scaling for your instrumentation setup.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this model when precise current monitoring is required for high-amperage circuits up to 800A primary. Consider the in-line architecture if space constraints preclude window-type transformers. Evaluate the 50Hz to 400Hz frequency capability against your source waveform. Choose this variant over ANSI-rated models only if non-standard compliance suffices for your application environment and regulatory framework.
