Programmable AC Masibus Current Transducer

The Masibus Current Transducer, PDA/PDV, is employed for the measurement and conversion of AC current or voltage inputs into load-independent DC current or voltage output signals. The generated output signal is directly proportional to the root mean square value of the input current or voltage.

This transducer features two load-independent, galvanically-isolated analog outputs that can be customized to suit various input ranges and output curves. AC transducers provide an economical and accurate method for current and voltage measurement in systems calibrated to true RMS values. These transducers are commonly used to interface with Remote Terminal Units (RTUs).
