PEM CWT AC Current Probe

The PEM AC Current Probes utilize a Rogowski Coil and Matched Analog Integrator to provide accurate non-contact, measurement of AC currents over a very broad frequency range. These flexible “clip-around” Current Probes have very low insertion impedance compared to Current Transformers, (CT), or Hall Current Transducers, are easy to insert in confined spaces and are not damaged by over-current surges. They can be used for measuring ac, pulse or transient current waveforms. Since the PEM Current Probes have no magnetic core they can be used to measure ac current on a conductor with high dc current or in the presence of a high dc magnetic field.

CWT AC Current Probe

The CWT is ideal for power electronics development work because it combines an easy to use thin, flexible, clip-around coil with an ability to accurately replicate fast switching current waveforms. The standard CWT AC Current Probe has range of 30A to 300kA, with bandwidth of 0.03Hz to 16MHz.

CWTLF AC Current Probe

Available with standard CWT Coils. The CWTLF provides an extended low frequency bandwidth. This enables the measurement of: low currents at 50/60Hz; AC currents with significantly lower phase shift error, and long pulses of current with lower values of droop than the CWT standard or mini ranges. Measurement range is from 60A to 300kA, with bandwidth from 0.0038Hz to 12MHz.
