STWA1FH - Electronic Current Transducer - S225560

The STWA1FH provides a frequency output with 0.5...20 Hz which corresponds to a current flow of AC 0 - 20 A through the transformer. Multiple loops of the conductor through the transformer reduce the current range correspondingly (e.g. with fourfold looping-through 0 - 5 A correspond to 0.5...20 Hz).
For the monitoring of high currents, the STWA1FH is simply looped in the secondary circuit of a large current transformer. accordingly, the frequency output is proportional to the primary current of the transformer, e.g. 0 - 100 A for a transformer with 100/5 A (cable four times through the STWA1F).
The offset of 0.5 Hz at the beginning of the transducing range is for technical reasons. During evaluation, it can be taken into account.

Application: The STWA1FH enables moderately priced detection of the value of an AC-current with a DIGITAL INPUT of a PLC. Costly analogue inputs are no longer necessary.
The STWA1FH is particularly suitable to evaluate the current in electric motors in machines of i.e. saws. The  feed can be regulated dependent from the load of the motor of the saw.
