8ASHT-251

Current Sense Transformers Overview

The Sifam Tinsley Instrumentation Inc model 8ASHT-251 is a current sense transformer designed for panel or chassis mounting. It operates within a frequency range of 50 Hz to 400 Hz and features a turns ratio of 250:5. The device has an accuracy class of Class 1 and includes a window diameter of 28.7 mm. It is non-ANSI rated and utilizes bracket mounting for installation.

Current Sense Transformers Feature Summary

• Provides electrical isolation via a 250:5 turns ratio
• Operates across a wide frequency spectrum from 50 Hz to 400 Hz
• Ensures measurement precision with Class 1 accuracy rating

Current Sense Transformers Applications

• Panel-mounted current monitoring systems
• Chassis-integrated power measurement circuits
• Industrial equipment requiring isolated current sensing

Current Sense Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific mounting configuration required, as the component supports both panel and bracket mounting options. Confirm that the operating frequency range of 50 Hz to 400 Hz aligns with the target application's signal characteristics. Ensure the 28.7 mm window diameter accommodates the conductor size. Cross-reference the Class 1 accuracy requirement against system tolerance specifications before finalizing the order.

Current Sense Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated current sense transformer is needed rather than a standard meter. The 250:5 ratio suits applications where secondary instrumentation expects a 5 A input. Consider the physical dimensions and mounting style to ensure compatibility with the enclosure design. Verify that the non-ANSI rating meets the regulatory requirements of the deployment region.

Current Sense Transformers Part Context

This part belongs to the broader category of current transformers manufactured by Sifam Tinsley Instrumentation Inc. These devices are typically used in conjunction with analog or digital meters to measure alternating current. The 8ASHT-251 specifically addresses scenarios requiring robust isolation and precise current transformation over varying frequencies.

Current Sense Transformers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 250:5 ratio, 50-400 Hz frequency range, and Class 1 accuracy. Verify that alternative models support the same 28.7 mm window diameter and compatible mounting methods. Ensure the replacement maintains the non-ANSI rating if regional compliance is critical.
