CR4180-10

Current Sensors Overview

The CR4180-10 is a True RMS AC current transducer manufactured by CR Magnetics Inc. It features a single-element design suitable for non-sinusoidal waveforms. The device provides a 4-20mA DC output signal and supports an output load of >= 2K Ω. It operates on a 24 VDC power supply with +/- 10% tolerance. The unit is rated for a primary current of 10A AC.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• True RMS measurement capability for accurate readings of distorted AC waveforms
• Single-element solid core construction for isolation and durability
• Standardized 4-20mA DC analog output interface

Current Sensors Applications

• Monitoring AC current in industrial control panels
• Power quality analysis systems
• Energy management and metering applications

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to confirm the output signal type, as variations exist within the CR4180 series. Ensure the application requires a 4-20mA output rather than other available options like 0-5V or 0-10V. Confirm that the 24 VDC supply voltage aligns with existing system infrastructure before procurement.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this model when precise measurement of non-sinusoidal AC currents is required. The 10A rating suits moderate current loads. Consider the 4-20mA output compatibility with downstream PLCs or data acquisition systems. Verify that the operating frequency range meets the specific application requirements.

Current Sensors Part Context

This component belongs to the CR4180 series of True RMS AC current transducers from CR Magnetics. The series includes various current ratings such as 15A, 30A, and 150A. These devices are designed for electrical instrumentation where waveform distortion is present, distinguishing them from standard average-responding meters.
