    SCTxxxx | Current transformers (CT) for energy measurement Fig. 1: SCT current transformers With its SCT current transformers, Beckhoff makes it possible to implement reliable power sensor technology in the field, which is directly integrated into the PC-based control system. Users can select from two device concepts, each with various designs and performance categories that are highly scalable and therefore suitable for any application.
  • Page 9: Basics Current Transformers

    Product overview Basics current transformers Function and design A current transformer is a transforming device that transforms an input current into a processable current signal at the output. A current transformer is mainly used to transform currents of large magnitudes to directly measurable, smaller values in the milliampere or small ampere range.
  • Page 10 Product overview WARNING Dangerous voltages with secondary side not connected The secondary winding must be connected to a current measuring device or short-circuited, otherwise high core losses or dangerous voltages may occur on the secondary side. Before replacing the measuring elec- tronics in the secondary circuit, the current transformer must therefore be short-circuited at its secondary terminals.
  • Page 11 Product overview Technical terms of current transformers Term Explanation Primary rated current I Value of the rated current on the primary side. (alternative formula symbol I Secondary rated current I Value of the rated current on the secondary side. Rated power S Value of apparent power (in [VA]) that the transformer can deliver to the secondary circuit at secondary rated current and rated load.

  • Page 13 Product overview Coil current transformers Fig. 5: SCT0xxx In order to guarantee the power transmission, current transformers need a correspondingly large measuring core volume with decreasing primary rated currents. The dimensions of standard current transformers would quickly hit their limits on the basis of this physical principle. The SCT0xxx coil current transformers with electrical isolation are specially designed for these low primary rated currents and are used in corresponding applications.
  • Page 14 Product overview Mini ring-type current transformer Fig. 6: SCT1xxx The SCT1111 mini ring-type current transformer can be positioned on a DIN rail by means of snap-on fastening and is thus suitable for measurements in very tight installation spaces, e.g. directly in the sub- distribution unit.
  • Page 15 Product overview Ring-type current transformer Fig. 7: SCT2xxx The SCT2xxx series offers a large selection of ring-type current transformers for primary currents from 60 to 2500 A in six sizes and two accuracy classes. The innovative screwless connection technology for rigid and flexible conductors saves time –...
  • Page 16 Product overview Ring-type current transformer SCT2111 Accuracy class 1, primary current 0…60 A AC to 0…500 A AC, secondary current 1 A AC, max. diameter round conductor 25.7 mm (size 1) SCT2121 Accuracy class 0.5, primary current 0…125 A AC to 0…600 A AC, secondary current 1 A AC, max.
  • Page 17 Product overview 3-phase ring-type current transformers Fig. 8: SCT3xxx The compact SCT3xxx 3-phase ring-type current transformers for direct mounting under commonly used power switches measure primary currents from 3 x 50 to 3 x 600 A, with secondary currents of 1 or 5 A. The whole of the SCT3xxx series is available in accuracy class 1 and is supplemented by the SCT3121-0125 and SCT3121-0150 current transformers in accuracy class 0.5.
  • Page 18 Product overview Split-core current transformers Fig. 9: SCT6xxx The separable measuring system of the SCT6xxx split-core current transformers enables flexible retrofitting without disconnecting the primary conductor. Due to the minimal installation effort, they are suitable for use in places that are difficult to access or where space is limited. Four sizes are available. Accuracy class 3 is suitable for primary currents from 60 to 150 A, accuracy class 1 for 200 to 1000 A.
  • Page 19 Product overview Busbar split-core current transformers Fig. 10: SCT71xx Like the SCT6xxx series, the SCT7xxx busbar split-core current transformers for primary currents up to 5000 A can be retrofitted to existing systems with no great mounting effort. From 500 A, there is a choice between accuracy class 0.5 and 1 for each primary current.
  • Page 20: Notes On Class Accuracy Sct Transformers

    Product overview Notes on class accuracy SCT transformers Current transformers are divided into classes according to their accuracy. The Beckhoff SCT current transformers are available in the standard accuracy classes 0.5; 1 and 3, depending on the product category. The class designation corresponds to an error curve with regard to current amplitude and angular error.
