This device may not be suitable for applications requiring digital data logging, remote monitoring, or integration with programmable logic controllers. It is also not intended for use in environments where extreme vibration or high levels of electromagnetic interference could affect the mechanical movement of the needle.

Key specifications

• Measurement type: Analog AC current
• Front frame dimensions: 72x72mm
• Input ratio: 1200/5A
• Mounting style: Panel mount

To install the ammeter, ensure the electrical circuit is de-energized. Secure the device into the panel cutout using the provided mounting hardware. Connect the secondary output of your 1200/5A current transformer to the input terminals of the ammeter, ensuring correct polarity and secure connections. Once installed, verify the connections before restoring power to the system.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your system utilizes a 1200/5A current transformer
• Ensure the panel cutout matches the 72x72mm dimensions
• Confirm that the environment is suitable for analog measurement equipment

For optimal accuracy and safety, ensure all wiring connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications and that the current transformer is correctly sized for the load being monitored. Periodically inspect the meter for physical damage or signs of moisture ingress.
