Current sensor -500..500 mA

Current sensor -500..500 mA

Item nr. BT22i Category
The Current sensor BT22i is designed for measuring small currents in AC and DC circuits in the range between -500 and 500 mA. It has two banana (4-mm) plugs for easy connection. The sensor contains a sensing element and a signal-conditioning amplifier. The sensor should be connected in series to a circuit element. Currents in either direction can be measured. The current is indicated as positive when it flows from the red terminal to the black terminal.

Original price was: € 107,50.Current price is: € 86,00.

Description

The sensing element is a resistor connected between the red and black terminals. The sensor is protected by a multifuse.
The Current sensor is specially designed for measurements of very low and accurate currents.

Technical specifications:

  • Measurement range: – 500 mA .. +500 mA
  • Resolution: 0.38 mA
  • Maximum voltage: 50 V
  • Maximum measurement frequency: 100 kHz (CoachLab II+, WiLab) / 1 MHz (VinciLab 2)
  • Warrantee: 36 months

All technical specifications of the sensor are described in the product manual, see downloads.

The current sensor can be used in various physics experiments such as:

  • Characteristics of a light bulb and a diode
  • Measurements of internal resonance and EMF
  • Measurements in series and parallel electrical circuits
  • Together with a Differential Voltage Sensor it can be used to explore the relationship between the current and the voltage in electrical circuits – Ohm’s Law.
