15420006

Panel meters, counters, and hour meters are essential components of various industrial processes and applications. The 15420006, a current sensing meter, is often used for this purpose. In this article, we will explore the application field and working principle of the 15420006.

Application Field

The 15420006 is primarily used for monitoring and controlling electric current usage, making it ideal for machine automation. It is also widely used in industrial power automation applications as it can accurately measure and monitor current and voltage levels. It can be used for any application where precise current sensing and monitoring is required, such as in electric motor control, solar inverter monitoring, and renewable energy applications.

Working Principle

The 15420006 operates on the principle of zero-crossing detection. This zero-crossing detection technology involves detecting the exact moment when a given waveform crosses the zero-axis from a positive to a negative or vice versa. This is used to accurately measure current and voltage levels with accuracy up to 0.1%.

The 15420006 uses a specialized optical sensor, known as a Hall effect sensor, to detect the exact moment when a waveform crosses the zero-axis. This sensor measures the strength and direction of the magnetic field around the conductor in which it is installed. The output of the Hall effect sensor is then amplified and sent to an analog-to-digital converter, which is used to generate a digital output signal.

The digital output signal is then used as the basis for calculating the current and voltage levels. This signal is further processed to be in the correct form for display on the panel meter’s display. The output can be in the form of either a digital or analog signal.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the 15420006 panel meter is a specialized current sensing meter widely used in industrial applications where precise current monitoring and control is required. It operates on the principle of zero-crossing detection, using an optical sensor to detect changes in the current or voltage levels. This digital signal is then used to calculate the current and voltage levels and then displayed on the panel meter’s display.
