EI19 Low Frequency Transformer Horizontal Power Supply Current
Transformer
1.Product Description
The EI19 Power Supply Current Transformer is a crucial electrical
component designed for power supply applications. Featuring an EI19 core structure, this current transformer offers a
combination of efficient magnetic performance and a compact form
factor. The "EI" shape of the core provides a closed magnetic path, which
helps to minimize magnetic leakage and enhance the transfer of
magnetic flux, ensuring reliable current transformation.
In power supply systems, its primary function is to accurately
measure and monitor the current flowing through the circuit. By stepping down the current to a more manageable level, it allows
for easy connection to measurement devices such as ammeters,
current sensors, or control circuits. This enables precise monitoring of the electrical load, helping to
prevent overcurrent situations and ensure the safe and efficient
operation of the power supply.
Constructed with high-quality materials, the EI19 Power Supply
Current Transformer is built to withstand various operating
conditions. It can handle a wide range of input currents and is designed to
provide stable and accurate performance over an extended period. Its robust design also makes it resistant to electrical and
mechanical stresses, ensuring long-term reliability.
Whether used in industrial power supplies, renewable energy
systems, or electronic equipment, the EI19 Power Supply Current
Transformer plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity of the
power supply circuit. Its ability to accurately measure and transform current makes it an
essential component for effective power management and protection,
contributing to the overall stability and efficiency of the
electrical system.
1. Core: Adopting EI type core structure, which is also the origin
of its name. Usually made of magnetic materials with high
permeability, such as silicon steel sheets or ferrites. The EI type
iron core can provide a good magnetic circuit, concentrate the
magnetic flux, reduce magnetic leakage, and improve the performance
of the transformer. The shape and size of the iron core (where "19"
may represent a certain specification parameter of the iron core)
determine the magnetic properties and applicable current range of
the transformer.
2. Primary winding: It is the part of the current transformer
connected to the tested circuit, directly carrying the high current
of the main circuit. The number of turns in a primary winding is
relatively small, and it is usually designed based on the rated
current and the current carrying capacity of the winding. Its wires
are generally thicker to meet the requirements for passing high
currents. The structure and number of turns configuration of a
primary winding will affect the transformation ratio and
measurement accuracy of the transformer.
3. Secondary winding: Connected to measurement, protection, and
control equipment, it converts the high current on the primary side
into a small current proportionally. The secondary winding has more
turns and the wires are relatively thin. The output current signal
(usually standard values such as 5A or 1A) can be used for
subsequent measurement and analysis by instruments, or for
triggering protective devices. The design of secondary winding
needs to consider the matching with different devices and the
impact on measurement accuracy.
4. Insulation materials: Due to the need to maintain electrical
insulation between the primary and secondary windings, as well as
between them and the iron core, to ensure safe operation and
prevent signal interference, various insulation materials are used.
These insulation materials include insulation paint, insulation
paper, epoxy resin, etc., which can withstand a certain voltage and
have good mechanical properties and chemical stability, ensuring
long-term reliable operation in different working environments.
5. Shell: It serves to protect the internal windings and iron core,
while also providing some mechanical support. The casing is usually
made of materials such as plastic and metal, with a protection
level that can prevent dust, moisture, and impact, ensuring the
normal operation of the transformer under various harsh
environmental conditions.
6. Wiring terminal: used to connect the external circuit of the
primary winding and the secondary winding. The primary side
terminal block is used to connect to the main circuit, while the
secondary side terminal block is used to connect measurement,
protection, and other equipment. The design of wiring terminals
should ensure good electrical connection and mechanical stability,
and prevent problems such as looseness and poor contact.
2.Electrical Performance
Electrical Performance | Description |
Current Transformation Ratio | The EI19 Power Supply Current Transformer has a specific current
transformation ratio that accurately steps down the high current in
the primary circuit to a measurable low current in the secondary
circuit, such as converting large primary currents (e.g., hundreds
or thousands of amperes) to standard secondary currents like 5A or
1A for easy measurement and control. |
Accuracy Class | It is classified according to its accuracy level, which indicates
the degree of deviation between the actual secondary current output
and the ideal value corresponding to the primary current. Higher
accuracy classes ensure more precise current measurement, suitable
for applications where accurate current monitoring is crucial, like
in power metering and precision control systems. |
Rated Current | The rated primary and secondary currents are defined values within
which the transformer can operate reliably. The rated primary
current determines the maximum current the transformer can handle
in the primary circuit, while the rated secondary current is the
standard output current for measurement and connection to other
devices. Operating within the rated current range maintains the
transformer's performance and lifespan. |
Insulation Resistance | With proper insulation materials between the primary and secondary
windings, as well as between the windings and the core, the
transformer has a high insulation resistance. This resistance value
prevents electrical leakage and ensures the safety of the secondary
circuit and connected devices from the high voltage of the primary
circuit. It also helps in reducing electromagnetic interference
between the two circuits. |
