JC36S-500A-V

Current Sensors Overview

The JC36S-500A-V is a split-core current transducer manufactured by J&D Manufacturing, designed for AC current measurement applications. It features a single channel configuration with a primary sensing range of 500A. The device provides a ratiometric voltage output ranging from 0V to 5V, powered by a 5V supply. Key performance specifications include an accuracy and linearity of ±2%, a frequency response of 50Hz to 60Hz, and a response time of 300ms. This module utilizes a single pass-through mounting type, making it suitable for integration into energy management systems and electronic submeters.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Split-core design allows for convenient installation on existing busbars or cables without disconnecting the circuit
• Provides a proportional 0V to 5V DC output signal corresponding to the measured AC current
• Engineered specifically for compatibility with electronic submeters and power line carrier communication systems

Current Sensors Applications

• Energy management systems requiring accurate AC current monitoring
• Electronic submetering for commercial and industrial power distribution
• Integration with power line carrier communication networks for data transmission

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number JC36S-500A-V matches the required 500A range and 0-5V output specification. Confirm the 5V supply requirement aligns with the system design. Ensure the split-core aperture size accommodates the target conductor. Cross-reference the manufacturer documentation for any updated regulatory compliance markings such as CE certification before finalizing procurement orders.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this model when a non-invasive AC current measurement solution is required for frequencies between 50Hz and 60Hz. The choice is appropriate for applications needing a simple voltage interface rather than current loop output. Consider the ±2% accuracy tolerance against system requirements. The free-hanging module form factor should be evaluated against available space in the enclosure or panel where the sensor will be installed.

Current Sensors Part Context

This component belongs to the JC36S V Series of split-core current transducers produced by J&D Manufacturing. The series is characterized by its modular design intended for easy retrofitting onto existing electrical infrastructure. The 'V' suffix denotes the voltage output variant within the product family, distinguishing it from other output types like 4-20mA models.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

For direct functional replacement, consider the JC36S-500A-RMS if a 4-20mA output is acceptable instead of the 0-5V signal. Verify that the replacement maintains the same 500A rating and 5V supply requirement. Ensure the physical dimensions and mounting style are compatible with the existing installation constraints.
