CR5210-2

Current Sensors Overview

The CR5210-2 is a DC current transducer from the CR Magnetics CR5200 series, designed for closed-loop magnetic modulation. It provides a proportional DC signal for unidirectional current sensing with a rated capacity of 2A. The device operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 50°C and utilizes a 24V DC supply. It features a 4-20mA output option and includes a 0.79-inch window for conductor passage.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Closed-loop magnetic modulation technology ensures high precision
• Unidirectional sensing capability for DC applications
• Compact module design suitable for DIN rail or panel mounting

Current Sensors Applications

• Battery charging systems
• DC power supply monitoring

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific output configuration required, as the CR5210 series may offer ratiometric voltage or 4-20mA variants depending on the exact suffix. Confirm that the unidirectional nature aligns with the application's current flow requirements. Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified 0°C to 50°C range for optimal performance and longevity.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this component when precise measurement of low-range DC currents up to 2A is necessary. The closed-loop design offers superior linearity compared to open-loop alternatives. Consider the physical dimensions and mounting style (DIN rail vs. panel) during integration planning to ensure compatibility with existing enclosure constraints.

Current Sensors Part Context

This part belongs to the CR5200 series of current sensors manufactured by CR Magnetics Inc. The series includes various models differentiated by current ratings, such as the CR5210-5 for 5A applications. These devices are engineered for industrial-grade reliability in DC current monitoring tasks.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CR5210 series variants like the CR5210-5 or CR5210S-10, provided the current rating difference is acceptable for the circuit design. Cross-referencing pinouts and mounting specifications is essential when considering alternative manufacturers.
