  • Functional Features:
    • Clear analog pointer or LCD/LED numeric display
    • Optional alarm contact or retransmission output on electronic versions
    • Anti-parallax mirror scale on high-grade analog types
  • Application Scenarios:
    • DC drive cabinet current monitoring
    • Battery bank discharge/charge current display
    • Generator exciter current indication
  • Material & Structure:
    • Front bezel: Black or white molded plastic
    • Rear terminals: Brass screw type for shunt and supply
  • Working Principle:

    A precision shunt placed in the current path develops a proportional millivolt drop (e.g., 75 mV at full scale). The meter measures this voltage drop and displays the corresponding current value calibrated to the shunt rating.

  • Installation Requirements:
    • Use Kelvin (4-wire) connection to shunt for accuracy
    • Mount in vertical panel position; avoid vibration and strong EMI sources
    • Select shunt rating matching meter scale exactly
  • Precautions:
    • Polarity must match shunt polarity to avoid reverse deflection (analog) or negative reading
    • Do NOT apply voltage >75 mV directly — always use correct external shunt
    • Periodically verify zero adjustment
