Introduction
The CurrentWatch™ EPRM Series is a family
of DIN-rail compatible, split-core current
sensors. Product features include a
large aperture, switch-selectable inputs
and outputs and isolation between primary and
secondary circuits. A patented technology
eliminates the use of a magnetic core and protects the
sensor against saturation and damage, which can occur
from continuous exposure to high currents. Models available
up to 400A and with 0-5/0-10V DC or 4-20 mA outputs as standard.
The EPRM Series is also available in True RMS, for working with
nonlinear loads in “noisy” power environments
.

Patented Protection Technology
The EPRM Series of current sensors features a patented technolo-
gy that eliminates problems associated with magnetic circuits such
as core saturation. The sensor will not be damaged by momentary
periods of high current, and the output from the sensor is limited to
protect the signal input device.
Quick Install Guide
The below steps can be followed to quickly install a CurrentWatch™
EPRM Series sensor.
1. Run the wire to be monitored through the cable guide and aper-
ture
2. Mount the sensor to a standard DIN rail
3. Connect output wiring with the provided terminal block
a. Use up to 12 AWG copper wires
b. For voltage output models, make sure output load is at least
10 kilohms
4. Choose the correct current range by positioning the Range
