Introduction Main Features ULTRASTAB SATURN is a high precision current measuring device based on the Flux-gate principle. It can measure current in both the DC and AC domain. The instrument can be configured in a variety of ways to suit the user’s demands. Amongst the Ultrastabs main features are: - Current or voltages output - Programmable current range from 0 –...
4.2 Front ULTRASTAB SATURN On the front of the there are 7 LED’s for indication of system status, warning and error. ULTRASTAB SATURN POWER: This LED is lit (Blue) when the is on STATUS: This LED is lit (Green) when the status of the unit is OK.
IEC power inlet and voltage selector. This connector accepts a standard IEC power cord (supplied). The voltages can be changed using the voltages selector code wheel in order to match local voltages. Furthermore the unit’s two mains fuses are located in the IEC power inlet.
Installation Mounting requirements ULTRASTAB SATURN can be mounted in either a rack based system or as a stand alone unit using the supplied rubber feet’s. Warning: The unit must be mounted horizontally. To ensure proper cooling the heat sink on the left and the air inlet on the right side of the unit must be keept free.
2. Establish the Ground connection according to the local authority regulations and the requirements of the equipment. 3. Mount the provided connection cable between the ULTRASTAB Saturn and the Transducer Head. Please note that only one transducer head may be connected to either transducer head A or transducer head B plug.
Grounding the transducer heads For safety reasons the transducer heads must be connected to earth. To connect a transducer head to earth follow these steps: STH 600: Connect an earth wire to the earth connector on the front plate of the transducer head STH 2000: Connect the earth wire to the transducer head using a M8 ringtounge fastened to one of the 4 mounting holes with a M8 screw.
Jumpers Jumper settings ULTRASTAB SATURN contains a number of jumpers which are used to configure the unit. The default factory setting should in most cases be the preferred configuration. However you may need to alter the settings to match the unit to your application.

Default setting: Shorted Transducer electronic Jumper 3: Saturation fault mode selector Located to the right on the electronics board. This 3 pin jumper is used to ULTRASTAB SATURN select which action the must take if the transducer head is saturated. In mode 2 the unit will automatically begin to sweep in ULTRASTAB SATURN order to lock on to the current again.
15:Lo ICBO ICBO used Sense Sense ULTRASTAB SATURN When using the in current out mode (No burden module) only pin 1, 2, 9, 10 should be used. ULTRASTAB SATURN Pin 9, 10: Signal ICBO is the output current from the Pin 1, 2: Signal Ext.
OLW_on or OLW_off depending on the unit’s status. Transducer head A connector The transducer head A connector is used to connect the STH 600 ULTRASTAB SATURN transducer head (DF part no: 89254) to the . The connection is made using the transducer head cable type A (DF part no.
Sync In The Sync In connector is used to input and external synchronization signal ULTRASTAB SATURN from another . This connector is a standard 8 ways modular jack connector (RJ45), and accepts standard network cables. ULTRASTAB SATURN Cables may be straight or cross-over cables as the only use connections which are common for both cable types.
Note: The disconnecting device on this equipment is the mains plug. To disconnect the unit unplug the mains plug at the power inlet. ULTRASTAB SATURN Before powering up the make sure all jumper settings are correct and that all connections are pushed fully home and secured properly.
ULTRASTAB SATURN Connecting the to a DVM or high impedance amplifier ULTRASTAB SATURN When connecting the to a DVM or high impedance load in voltage mode the following connections must be used. This ULTRASTAB SATURN diagram is equal to the output cable type B (no.:89382).

Theory of operation Basic principle of ULTRASTAB current transducers. The ULTRASTAB current transducers is delivered in a program covering a potential free measurements of currents from DC to 500 kHz ranging from 40 A to 25 kA. The precision current transducers are using a zero flux principle controlling a compensation current which counterbalance the ampere turns generated of the primary current.
Page 25
The transducer head core (1) is the basic body structure. The cores (2) and (3) are flux detector cores coupled to the electronics zero flux detector circuitry by means of the coils L1 and L2. L1 and L2 are coupled in parallel or serial, depending of model, with opposite phase to reduce the unwanted flux generated in Core1.
ULTRASTAB SATURN does not require any maintenance under normal ULTRASTAB SATURN operation in the version with a current output. with voltage output requires yearly or biyearly calibration. If the unit needs service please contact Danfysik A/S or our local sales representative.
