Features:
  • Built-in current transformer with ranges up to 60 AAC.
  • Galvanic separation between input and output.
  • Selectable metering range via DIP-switches from 0-3.46 kW to 0-41.6 kW at 3x400 VAC.
  • Output options include 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, and 0-10 V.
  • Short-circuit proof output.
Connection and Operation:
  • The device connects to the 3-phase net and load as per the connection diagram.
  • For 1-phase loads, L2 and L3 should be connected to N, and L1 to the phase, with output signal multiplied by 1.5 for accuracy.
  • Compatible with frequency converters operating in the 10-150 Hz range.
Selection of Metering Range:
  • Use DIP-switches to select desired metering range and output signal.
  • SW1 controls output signal (OFF = 4-20 mA, ON = 0-20 mA).
  • SW2, SW3, and SW4 configure monitoring current, with specific settings for different amp and kW ranges.

FPA38, kW transmitter, symmetrical-1

Transmitter for kW, 3-phase symmetrical load Connection to 3-phase net up to 3 x 500 VAC Monitoring of total power consumption (Ö3 x U x I x cos j) Built-in current transformer, ranges up to 60 AAC Analogue output 0-20 mA / 4-20 mA 24 DC supply Galvanic separation, input - output Made in accordance with the and EMC regulations FPA38 is monitoring the power consumption on 3-phase symmetrical load, primary motors. The wanted metering range is selected by means of DIP-switches, from 0-3,46 kW up to 0-41,6 kW at 3x400 VAC supply, proportional to 0-20/4-20 mA on the metering output. 0-10 V is also possible, see below. The supply voltage, 24 VDC, and the 3 voltage phases are connected to the relevant terminals. The current is monitored by putting the current phase L1 through the built-in current transformer, see connection diagram.

Select output signal, 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA with SW1. SW2, 3 and 4, selection of monitoring current, see table. Note: The power ranges in the table are calculated and calibrated with a supply voltage of 400 VAC. LOAD Metering principle. The FPA 38 is connected to the supply, 3-phase net and load as shown above. It can also be used together with frequency converters, as it operates in the frequency range10-150 Hz. For monitoring of 1-phase loads, connect L2 and L3 to N, and L1 to the phase. Since the unit is calibrated for 3-phase loads, the output signal must be multiplied with 1.5 in order to get the correct value at 1-phase loads.
