TRANSDUCER FOR AC VOLTAGE
(Self-powered)

The transducer converts an AC voltage into a load independent DC current or voltage signal which may be used to drive a number of remotely installed instruments.

The measuring principle is "arithmetic mean calibrated to RMS sinusoidal" and this transducer is therefore only suitable for undistorted sine wave measurements.

The normal response time is suitable for indicating instruments and recorders. A lower ripple - slower response version for data loggers can be supplied.

The output is protected against over-voltage due to surges or accidental contact with insulation testers or mains supply.

MODE OF OPERATION

The voltage to be measured is transformed in VT (1) and rectified in rectifier (2). The output stage (3) firstly filters and linearizes the signal and secondly compensates the output for changes in the load burden. Temperature compensation is also provided in this section.
