Northern Design XD Current Transducer

Product Details

Fully isolated direct measuring AC Current Transducers available with 2 different output signals:

• XD-I420 4 - 20mA, Loop powered.
• XD-5V 0 - 5V dc, Self powered.

Plate mounting (with a DIN Rail mount option) and an accuracy typically better than 0.5%. These transducers provide a low cost solution to most applications requiring measurement of ac current. 

There are 3 models of each type of output signal, covering a range from: 5A to 250 Amp (dip-switch selection of scale)

• Type 1: 0 - 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 Amp (0 - 30A range at reduced accuracy) 10mm maximum cable diameter
• Type 2: 0 - 30, 45, 60, 75 or 100 Amp (0 - 15A range at reduced accuracy) 19mm maximum cable diameter
• Type 3: 0 - 100, 150, 200 or 250 Amp (0 - 50A range at reduced accuracy) 19mm maximum cable diameter
