FG-R14-6B

Current Sensors Overview

The KEMET FG-R14-6B is a fluxgate-based residual current sensor designed for high-sensitivity AC and DC leakage detection. It operates within a measurement range of -50mA to 50mA and requires a supply voltage between 4.75 V and 5.25 V. The device features an analog output for precise leakage current monitoring alongside individual open drain alarm outputs. Constructed in a through-hole package, it supports board mounting and functions reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Residual current monitoring systems

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure compatibility with required pin configurations and packaging options. Confirm that the selected variant matches the intended through-hole mounting requirements and voltage specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest documentation to validate availability status and any recent design revisions before finalizing procurement orders.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this component when precise monitoring of low-level AC and DC residual currents is required. The dual-output architecture allows simultaneous analog feedback and discrete alarm triggering. Ensure the application environment remains within the specified thermal limits. This sensor is suitable for safety-critical EV infrastructure where rapid and independent leakage detection is mandatory.

Current Sensors Part Context

This model belongs to the FG-R14 series, a family of fluxgate sensors developed for electric vehicle charging applications. The series emphasizes fast response times for leakage alarms. The FG-R14-6B specifically denotes the through-hole variant with defined electrical characteristics, distinguishing it from other form factors within the same product line.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution lists for direct equivalents. Verify pinout compatibility and sensitivity specifications when considering alternative fluxgate sensors. Ensure any substitute maintains the required -50mA to 50mA measurement range and operating voltage constraints.
