EDC Series CurrentWatch DC current sensors

The CurrentWatch EDC Series combines a hall effect sensor and signal conditioner into a single package for use in DC current applications up to 300 A.

The EDC Series has jumper-selected current input ranges and industry-standard outputs: 4–20 mA, 0–5 Vdc or 0–10 Vdc.

Available in split-core models for quick and easy installation.

EDC Series CurrentWatch DC current sensors core features

  • Broad range of options to meet application needs—NO or NC, solid-state or mechanical relays, normally energized or normally de-energized contacts
  • Set point options maximize ease-of-use and application flexibility—field-selectable 5, 10 or 30 mA set points on the EGF "Tri-set" models make user adjustments fast, sure and convenient
  • Compatible with standard equipment—application on single- and three-phase systems, ideal for use with shunt trip breakers, and magnetically isolated from monitored circuit and control power

Applications in which the EDC Series current sensors excel

  • Personnel protection (typically 5 mA)—detects sensitive ground fault conditions, which could cause injury to people, and functions as a sensor and alarm trigger when applied as an input to an overall ground fault protection system
  • Equipment protection (typically 10 or 30 mA)—for applications where personnel protection is not the primary concern, higher set point capability helps eliminate nuisance tripping while still providing adequate ground fault detection to protect machine electronics
