Part Number

Description

H421

High current monitoring, 4-20 mA analog output, scalable amperage range (1000 to 2400 A upper limit)

H421SP

High current monitoring, 4-20 mA analog output, amperage range set at factory (1000, 1200, 1400, 

1600, 1800, 2000, 2200, or 2400 A upper limit, specified by customer at ordering)

Product Overview

The H421 and the H421SP are current transducers that sense current (amperage) in the monitored conductor. The 
H421 amperage range is field-adjustable, with ranges of 0-1000A thru 0-2400A possible. The H421SP is factory-
set at a range with an upper limit specified by the customer upon ordering (1000A, 1200A, 1400A, 1600A, 1800A, 
2000A, 2200A, 2400A, and 2400A options available for upper limits). Both devices transform the monitored current 
into 4-20mA DC output, suitable for connection to building controllers or other appropriate data acquisition 
equipment. The H421 and H421SP require a 12-30 VDC external power supply to generate their output.
