SCT-3000-1000

Current Sensors Overview

The Magnelab SCT-3000-1000 is a split-core current transformer designed for AC current sensing. It features a window-type construction allowing installation around existing conductors without disconnection. The device senses primary currents up to 1000 Amps and provides a proportional secondary output of 0.333 Volts. This configuration supports integration with power monitoring systems and control circuits requiring isolated current measurement data.

Current Sensors Feature Summary

• Split-core design enables non-intrusive installation around live busbars or cables
• Provides isolated electrical separation between high-current primary circuit and low-voltage secondary output
• Window-type structure facilitates retrofitting into existing electrical infrastructure

Current Sensors Applications

• AC current monitoring in industrial power distribution panels
• Integration with energy management and power quality analysis systems
• Retrofitting current measurement capabilities into existing switchgear

Current Sensors Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Magnelab distributors or certified suppliers. Confirm the specific model suffix matches the required 1000A primary rating and 0.333V output specification. Check for physical damage to the split-core mechanism before acceptance. Ensure documentation aligns with official manufacturer specifications for compliance purposes.

Current Sensors Selection Notes

Select this model when a non-invasive solution is required for measuring alternating currents up to 1000 Amperes. The 0.333 Volt output must match the input requirements of the connected monitoring or control instrumentation. Consider the physical aperture size to ensure compatibility with the target conductor diameter. Verify that the split-core closure mechanism maintains adequate magnetic coupling for accurate signal transmission.

Current Sensors Part Context

This component belongs to the Magnelab SCT-3000 series of split-core current transformers. The series offers various primary current ratings, including 1200A and other configurations, all sharing the same fundamental window-type architecture. These devices are engineered specifically for applications requiring safe, isolated current sensing without interrupting the primary power circuit.

Current Sensors Replacement Considerations

Public sources indicate this product has been discontinued with no confirmed replacement options available from the manufacturer. Users must search for alternative sensors matching the 1000A/0.333V specifications. Ensure any substitute part meets the same voltage output and current capacity requirements.
