Q1: How does the SENTRY 100-2L model differ from other solid core current transducers in the market?
A: The SENTRY 100-2L current sensing transducer is different than other transducers in that it outputs in 0…5 V loop. This voltage range is important in some specialized automation processes that do not accept, for example, a 4…20 mA standard.
Q2: What makes the SENTRY 100-2L ideal for continuous current monitoring applications?
A: The SENTRY 100-2L current transducer sensor is ideal for continuous monitoring of current. The wide sensing range between 0 and 200 amps covers almost all situations. The solid core body is rugged and will hold up well to an industrial environment. The inner toroid sensor is a practical and resilient method of sensing current.
Q3: Can the SENTRY 100-2L be used in systems that require both high sensitivity and durability?
A: The SENTRY 100-2L current sensing transducer is a durable and versatile sensor. The wide current sensing range of 0 to 200 amps can be narrowed if greater sensitivity is required. The toroid method of induction current sensing is durable; it is a simple process without moving parts.
Q4: What are the primary applications for using the SENTRY 100-2L Solid Core Current Transducer?
A: The SENTRY 100-2L current sensing transducer operates on a 0…5 volt loop. This standard has been utilized in automation for a long time, and you may find it used in some situations where there is no long wiring distance and no threat of noise interference.
