CA10 ProBus Current Adapter Key Features * Provides ability for third party current sensor to operate like a Teledyne LeCroy probe * The CA10 is a programmable and customizable interface device that seamlessly incorporates third party current transducers/transformers with Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes or motor drive analyzers. The easy to use interface provides the ability for the CA10 to be programmed Programmable EEPROM for to contain the specifications of the current sensor allowing it to saving third party current sensor parameters automatically correct for the gain or attenuation and display results in * Allows for addition of shunt operate as if it were a Teledyne LeCroy probe. * ProBus Active interface with * resistor and RLC filter components automatic scaling in A/div asy to use, saves time and E possible errors Ampere units. This allows the third party device to be recognized and Measurement Flexibility Power of Customization The CA10 ProBus Current Adapter The CA10 provides the ability to easily provides complete flexibility in install physical hardware components current measurements by allowing such as shunt resistors and bandwidth a wide variety of third party current filter components based on the transducers and transformers to be requirements of the device being used. easily incorporated with a Teledyne The CA10 also has programmable LeCroy oscilloscope or motor drive bandwidth limit filters of full BW, analyzer. Examples of devices that can 200 MHz, or 20 MHz. be used with the CA10 include Pearson Current Transformers, Danisense/ LEM Current Transducers, PEM-UK Rogowksi Coils, or any conventional turns-ratio current transformers. Once the CA10 is programmed, the third party transducer/transformer will be recognized and operate like a Teledyne LeCroy probe. Easy to Use The programmable interface is intuitive and easy to use. Once the CA10 is configured, it will recognize the third party device with the correct scaling factors on any compatible Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscope or motor drive analyzer. This saves time and possible errors involved in manually entering scaling factors each time the device is connected. SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING INFORMATION Customizing the CA10 It is possible to customize the CA10 L1 0 ohm J3 1 through the addition of shunt resistors and other bandwidth filtering components. A schematic of the user-installable components is shown here. The CA10 comes from the factory with a 0 (short) installed in the L1 location, and no 2 3 C8 Transformer/ Transducer Connector J2 1 C7 R13 R14 R4 Customizable Circuit 3 2 MDA/Oscilloscope Input BNC Connector components in the other locations shown. CAUTION: The secondary of a current transformer (CT), when unterminated, can generate hazardous open circuit voltages when energized. These voltages could be dangerous to personnel and damage the oscilloscope. If the CA10 is used with an unterminated current transformer, you must install a suitably rated terminating resistor in the CA10 before energizing the CT.
