BA20 AI/I electrical converters with AC current transformers What it is - A BA20 AI/I electrical converter that uses AC current transformers to sense current and produce a DC analog output. - The system captures an AC current signal and converts it into a 4-20 mA DC signal for process control and data acquisition. How it works - An AC current transformer detects the current on the measured conductor. - The transformer transfers the sensed AC signal to the BA20 unit. - The BA20 converts the AC signal to a DC analog output in the 4-20 mA range. Key benefits - Standard 4-20 mA output enables compatibility with common instrumentation, PLC inputs, data loggers, and SCADA systems. - Enables accurate monitoring of AC current in a DC signal form that is suitable for long cable runs and noisy environments. - Provides a straightforward interface between AC current measurements and DC control or monitoring equipment. Compatibility and integration - Designed to work with AC current transformers as the sensing element. - Output is a DC analog signal in the 4-20 mA range, suitable for standard current loop instrumentation. Size, material and construction - Size and construction materials are not specified in the available information. - For dimensions and material details, refer to the product datasheet or contact the supplier. Performance notes - Converts AC current signals into a DC 4-20 mA analog output, enabling reliable transmission to DC measurement and control systems. - The use of AC current transformers as the sensing element supports effective signal transfer to the BA20 converter. Use scenarios - Industrial motor monitoring: Use the BA20 AI/I with an AC current transformer to monitor motor current and feed a PLC or SCADA system through a 4-20 mA input. - Building automation and energy management: Sense AC load current on feeders and transmit the signal to an energy management or monitoring system via 4-20 mA. - Laboratory testing and data logging: Capture AC current in test setups and record or analyze the 4-20 mA output with standard data acquisition equipment.
