i-Snail-V: Current Transducer with 0-5VDC Output

Features:

  • 0-5V DC Output

  • Self powered

  • Robust construction (potted box)

  • Compact size and easy wiring

  • 10, 25, 50 and 100A ratings

Application:

The i-Snail-V offers an inexpensive means to monitor any electrical load. 

This product is ideal as an AC load transducer for Control and Energy Management applications. 

The built-in CT and self powered feature combine to make an easy to install, robust solution.

Product Description:

The i-Snail-V is a simple self power AC current transducer that provides a 0-5V analog signal proportional to the AC current flowing through the CT. Available in three ranges, the i-Snail-V is calibrated to AC sine wave. There is no need for input current configuration nor trimming, saving time and confusion in the field.

The transducer is enclosed in a fire retardant ABS box and encased in potting epoxy to withstand moisture, dust and vibration. The integrated mounting tabs provide an easy means to install the unit on a wall or within a control panel.

The i-Snail-V is ideal for load monitoring without the need for an external power supply. Two signal wires are all that are needed to obtain a linear, 0 to 5 V DC output voltage that may be easily interfacing with PLCs and DDC SCADA systems.

The i-Snail-V includes an on-board CT with a 14.5mm (0.570") wire window that can accommodate up to AWG #2. The available input ranges are 0-10A, 0-25A, 0-50A and 0-100A. Multiple turns of the primary wire may be used to alter the input range.
