SCT-1250-800

Current Sensors Overview

The Magnelab SCT-1250-800 is a split-core AC current sensor designed for unidirectional current measurement. It features a single pass-through configuration with an integrated conditioning module. The device has a rated input capacity of 800 Amps and provides an output signal of 0.333 Volts at the rated current level. Linearity accuracy is specified at ±1%. The sensor maintains accuracy across a range from 10% to 130% of its rated current, ensuring reliable performance in industrial monitoring applications.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Unidirectional measurement capability with integrated conditioning module
• Split-core design allowing installation without breaking the conductor
• High linearity accuracy for precise current monitoring

Current Sensors Applications

• Industrial power distribution monitoring
• Electrical panel current tracking
• Energy management systems

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number SCT-1250-800 matches the required 800A rating and 0.333V output specification. Confirm the unidirectional nature of the sensor aligns with the application's current flow direction requirements. Ensure the split-core aperture size accommodates the target conductor diameter for proper magnetic coupling and accurate signal generation.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this model when a unidirectional AC current measurement solution is required with a high current capacity up to 800A. The integrated conditioning module simplifies interface connections by providing a standardized voltage output. Consider the split-core form factor if retrofitting existing installations where conductor disconnection is not feasible or desirable for operational continuity.

Current Sensors Part Context

This component belongs to the SCT-1250 series of split-core AC current sensors manufactured by Magnelab. The series offers various current ratings, with the -800 suffix specifically denoting the 800 Amp rated input variant. These sensors are engineered for robust performance in demanding electrical environments, providing accurate feedback for control and monitoring systems through their conditioned analog outputs.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Magnelab SCT-1250 variants such as SCT-1250-600 or SCT-1250-150 if lower current ratings are acceptable. Cross-brand replacements require matching the 0.333V output at rated current and verifying the split-core mechanical dimensions to ensure physical compatibility with existing mounting structures.
