CR5211-10

Current Sensors Overview

The CR5211-10 is a DC current transducer manufactured by CR Magnetics Inc. It utilizes a magnetic modulator closed-loop technology for accurate measurement of direct current. The device features a solid core design with a single element and an inner diameter of 0.79 inches. It operates on a 24 VDC power supply with a tolerance of +/-10%. The input range supports 0-10 ADC, while the output provides a ratiometric signal ranging from +/-10 VDC. The unit requires an output load of at least 2K ohms and is designed for unidirectional current sensing applications.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Employs magnetic modulator closed-loop technology for precise DC current measurement
• Features a solid core construction suitable for single-element installation
• Provides a ratiometric voltage output signal proportional to the sensed current

Current Sensors Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring DC current monitoring
• Power supply units needing feedback control loops
• Battery management systems for charge/discharge tracking

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the CR5211-10 part number exactly. Confirm the requirement for a 24 VDC power supply with +/-10% tolerance aligns with your system capabilities. Ensure the application involves DC current measurement only, as this component is not designed for AC frequencies. Check that the output load impedance meets the minimum specification of 2K ohms to guarantee proper signal integrity and performance.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this model when a closed-loop solution is necessary for high-accuracy DC current sensing. The solid core design simplifies installation compared to split-core alternatives. Consider the 0.79-inch inner diameter to ensure compatibility with the conductor size. The ratiometric output is suitable for systems where the reference voltage varies. Evaluate the need for unidirectional measurement, as this sensor does not support bidirectional flow.
