• Commercial electrical infrastructure monitoring
• Electrical systems requiring 800/5A current transformer integration

When it may not be suitable

This device is not suitable for applications requiring digital data logging, remote monitoring, or integration with smart building management systems. It is also not intended for direct measurement of high-voltage circuits without the appropriate current transformer.

Key specifications

• Front frame dimensions: 72x72mm
• Input type: Current transformer (CT)
• Current ratio: 800/5A
• Display type: Analog pointer
• Mounting type: Panel mount

How to use

The ammeter should be installed by a qualified technician into a pre-cut 72x72mm panel opening. Secure the device using the provided mounting hardware to ensure a firm fit. Connect the secondary output of an external 800/5A current transformer to the input terminals of the ammeter according to the wiring diagram. Ensure all connections are tightened securely and that the circuit is de-energized during the installation process to prevent electrical hazards.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your system requires an 800/5A current transformer ratio
• Ensure the panel space accommodates the 72x72mm front frame dimensions
• Confirm that an analog display meets your operational requirements

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the mounting hardware and terminal connections to ensure they remain secure. Avoid exposing the analog display to excessive vibration or extreme environmental conditions to maintain measurement accuracy over time.
