TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
No reading
Erratic readings
Inaccurate readings
Current Sensor is operating at a
low-level current or failing to operate
within the accuracy specifications.
SOLUTION(S)
- Verify that there is current flowing through the conductor being monitored with a
clamp-on current probe. The power for the current sensor is induced from the conductor
being monitored.
- Check the polarity of the circuit.
- Verify that the terminals are screwed down, wires are firmly in place.
- Disconnect the wires from the current sensor output. Measure the voltage across the
current sensor output with a Voltmeter to verify that the sensor is working properly.
- Verify that the wires are terminated properly.
- In areas of high RF interference, shielded cable may be necessary to stabilize signal.
- If you suspect that the current sensor is not reading within the accuracy specifications,
please contact the factory for assistance.
-Visually check the mating parts of the core to ensure there is no debris between the split
contacts. See
Figure 2
.
-Remove all debris or dust manually and close the current sensor.
-Continue to retest the sensor in your application.
