1. Introduction
The MCTS is a multichannel high precision current transducer system, mainly used for the range extension of power meters.
The rack can be equipped with up to six internal power supplies. All internal power supplies are galvanic isolated from each
other and from earth potential. The current output terminals deliver the transducer output current on the back panel. Passive
plug-on burden resistors and active plug-on voltage amplifiers are available as an option. The status-readout-interface delivers
the transducer status (ok or overload/error) by means of internal galvanic isolated relay contacts.
Warning
Please be aware that an unpowered transducer or a transducer used with open output can be destroyed. The same can happen
if a transducer is heavily overloaded. Power and transducer status are visible on the front panel. The information of the status-
readout-interface on the back panel can be used to switch off the primary current via a relay or a PLC in case the transducer is
overloaded, the MCTS is switched off or the output loop is interrupted. All these events will change the transducer status to
error on the front panel led and the status-readout-interface. There is more information about the status-readout-interface
available in chapter 6.
2. Receiving of goods
The MCTS system can be equipped with up to six internal power supplies. There are various transducer types available from
100 A up to 2000 A. Connection cables are available in different lengths. Passive plug-on shunts and active plug-on voltage
amplifiers are available as an option. A status-readout cable and different current and voltage output cables are available as
options either.
Please compare your order papers with our packing list and the received goods.
