Hioki

CT6876A – AC/DC Current Sensor , Cable length: 3 m (9.84 ft.)
CT6876A-1 – AC/DC Current Sensor , Cable length: 10 m (32.81 ft.)

Overview

Hioki’s pass-through type AC/DC current sensors can be connected directly to Hioki Power Analyzers and Memory HiCorders. Also, it can be connected to Power Meters, Oscilloscopes, DMMs, etc. by using an optional sensor unit.

The CT6876A has a frequency bandwidth of DC to 1.5 MHz (Model CT6876A-1 is DC to 1.2 MHz) and a rated current of 1000 A. It is used for R&D, quality evaluation, manufacturing, and maintenance in markets such as wireless charging systems, inverter motors for industrial equipment, power conditioners for PV, and quick charging facilities for EVs.

Use with an instrument with a high input impedance of 1 MΩ or higher.

Key Features

  • High accuracy (amplitude): [DC]±0.048 %, [50 Hz/60 Hz]±0.048 %
  • High accuracy (phase): [50 Hz/60 Hz]±0.08°
  • The ideal current sensor for measuring large 1000 A currents in EV, HEV, and PHEV
  • Strengthened shield improves noise resistance to accurately measure current buried in noise
  • Flat frequency characteristics and CMRR performance to achieve high accuracy measurement
  • More enhanced environmental resistance performance than ever before with operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C
  • Good frequency characteristics over wide band of DC to 1.5 MHz (amplitude) and DC to 1 MHz (phase)
  • Ideal for advanced fields such as photovoltaics and fuel cells to evaluate the charge / discharge of batteries and secondary side of inverters
  • Connect with oscilloscopes or Hioki Memory HiCorders (using SENSOR UNIT) to monitor waveforms
