High Current Sensor

PS-2193

Quick Start

1. Connect the High Current Sensor to you PASPORT inter-

face.

2. If you are using a computer, connect the PASPORT interface

to it and start DataStudio.

3. Connect the sensor to a circuit.

4. Press or click the Start button to begin recording data.

Introduction

The PS-2193 High Current Sensor measures current between

−10 A and +10 A. The sensor connects to a PASPORT interface

and collects data at up to 1000 samples/s.

Connecting to a Circuit

Use cables with 4 mm banana plugs to place the sensor in a cir-

cuit as illustrated. Positive current flows into the positive termi-

nal and out of the negative terminal.

The voltage anywhere within the connected circuit should not

exceed 10 V above or below earth ground.

Overcurrent

If the current through the sensor exceeds ±10 A, the overcurrent

indicator on the sensor will light up. Reduce the current or dis-

connect the sensor to prevent damage.

Over-sampling

The High Current Sensor uses dynamic variable over-sampling to

reduce noise and produce smoother data. The degree of

over-sampling that takes place within the sensor depends on the

sample rate. To maximize over-sampling, set the sample rate as

low as possible for a given application. Maximum over-sampling

occurs at sample rates of 10 Hz or slower.
