IAS: Analogue Current Sensor for High-Side Shunt-based Current Monitoring

IAS: Analogue Current Sensor for High-Side Shunt-based Current Monitoring

At the Sensor+Test fair in Nuremberg, Isabellenhütte unveiled its precision current sensor with analogue voltage output. The new sensor, the IAS, does not require a digital interface or digital converter, reducing size and costs – an important benefit for users in many different fields (e.g. automotive applications, energy management systems and general current sensing applications). The choice of used shunts ranges from 0.1 to 1 mOhm, meaning the measurement area and the dynamic range can

Significant Cost Reduction for Retrofit with Custom-Made Heavy-Duty Disconnectors

Ferraz Shawmut, one of the leading global manufacturers of current disconnectors and switching equipment, also offers custom-made switches for plants built to non-European or obsolete standards which need to be upgraded during modernization. The new switches fulfill the various different national and international security standards as well as new specifications. A modular system permits a high level of compatibility and an accurately fitting solution. Modifications can be avoided in most cases.
