Current Transducers are devices utilized to measure electric current. They come in a variety of forms and styles, depending on the application. No matter what form they take, all current transducers measure an electrical current and send a signal that can be read or recorded. The CR4180-20 current transducer is an example of this type of device, and is typically used in industrial applications.

In the case of the CR4180-20, it is a direct current (DC) closed loop current transducer. Its core components are a Hall Effect sensor and an analog amplifier. The Hall Effect sensor measures changes in magnetic field strength or current flow in its immediate vicinity. These measurements are sent to the amplifier, which converts the signal into a voltage, which is then output from the transducer. This output can be read or recorded by a device that is appropriately calibrated for the measurements.

Being a closed loop current transducer, the CR4180-20 has the added advantage of indicating active and open circuits. It also has the capability of detecting “hot” and ground faults, as well as short circuits. Its relatively low cost and compact size make it an attractive option for many industrial applications. Some of these applications include motor control, process control, safety systems, and energy saving systems.

In addition to the Hall Effect sensor and amplifier, the CR4180-20 also incorporates current-carrying turns which are wound around the core of the transducer. This arrangement is in place to provide increased stability of the signal during operation. As the voltage of the signal is regulated, it provides a more reliable measurement. The turns also reduce the temperature rise of the components due to interference from high current loads.

The CR4180-20 has a wide range of input currents and a linear output that is proportional to the input current. Its load resistance ranges from 2 to 5 ohms, and it can handle up to 20A in steady state. It also has an integrated self-test feature that will check for proper operation of the amplifier and Hall Effect sensor, as well as verify the proper operation of the transducer.

The CR4180-20 is a widely used current transducer that is ideal for industrial applications. Its Hall Effect sensor and amplifier provide reliable measurements of current, and its wide range of input current and linear output make it a reliable option for a variety of applications. Its integrated self-test feature helps ensure that the device is functioning properly, and its low cost and compact size make it an attractive option for many industrial applications.
