IME S.p.A. AN2251C100 AC Ammeter 72x72mm 100/5A

The IME S.p.A. AN2251C100 is a professional analog AC ammeter engineered for accurate current monitoring in electrical switchboards and power distribution systems. With a compact 72x72 mm front frame, this device is designed for seamless integration into industrial and commercial control panels, offering clear, real-time visual feedback on electrical circuit performance. It is specifically calibrated for use with a 100/5A current transformer, ensuring reliable measurement and long-term operational stability in demanding environments.

Advantages

This analog ammeter provides a highly reliable and immediate visual representation of current flow, which is essential for rapid diagnostics in electrical installations. Its robust construction ensures durability under standard operating conditions, while the standardized 72x72 mm dimensions allow for easy mounting in existing panel cutouts. By utilizing a current transformer input, the device maintains high measurement accuracy and safety, isolating the meter from high-voltage primary circuits.

Suitable for

• Industrial power distribution panels
• Commercial electrical switchboards
• Monitoring current in motor control centers
• Electrical infrastructure maintenance

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for measuring DC currents or for applications requiring digital data logging and remote communication capabilities. It is also unsuitable for environments where the current exceeds the specified transformer ratio or where high-precision digital readout is required over analog needle indication.

Key specifications

• Display type: Analog needle
• Front frame dimensions: 72x72 mm
• Input type: 100/5A current transformer
• Mounting: Panel mount
• Housing dimensions: 80x80x80 mm

How to use

The ammeter should be installed by a qualified professional into a standard 72x72 mm panel cutout. Ensure the device is connected to the secondary side of a compatible 100/5A current transformer. Verify that all wiring connections are secure and follow the electrical diagram provided with the unit to prevent measurement errors or damage to the device. Once installed, the needle will automatically reflect the current flowing through the primary circuit.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your system utilizes a 100/5A current transformer
• Check the available space in your electrical panel for the 72x72 mm front frame
• Ensure the installation environment is free from excessive vibration or extreme temperatures

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the physical condition of the meter and ensure that all terminal connections remain tight to maintain measurement accuracy and operational safety.
