Product description
STWA4MH is a measuring transducer. It measures AC up to 60A and has an RS485 interface (Modbus RTU). The measured analog current value is made available as a digital signal and can be read by a PLC, an IPC or a master computer.
The conductor to be measured is passed through an opening (Ø 11 mm). In case of small currents, the sensitivity of the current transducer can be increased by looping through the current-carrying conductor several times, e.g. double looping doubles the sensitivity. The measuring range of the STWA4MH is reduced by multiple looping. To measure currents of any size, the STWA4MH is simply looped into the secondary circuit of a large current transformer with a secondary output of 5A (lead the cable through STWA4MH several times).
Application:
The STWA4MH enables the space-saving an cost-effective measurement of the actual value of an alternating current. Compared to transducers with analog output, the bus technology significantly reduces the effort for the hardware (inputs) and the wiring. Applications are e.g. the recording of the current consumption of electrical motors in processing machines. Here the feed can be regulated depending on the load on the motor. Another example is the monitoring of consumers, e.g. heating elements, for failure.
