Environmental Characteristics

Product Description

Operating Instructions

1. Measurement System Configuration

   • Connect the probe to oscilloscopes or instruments with verified grounding

   • Set input impedance to 1MΩ (minimum 100kΩ acceptable)

   • Match sensitivity settings:
     • 50mV/A sensitivity → 20X oscilloscope attenuation
     • 1mV/A sensitivity → 1000X oscilloscope attenuation

2. Power Management
   Activate using external DC 12V/5V power supply. Green LED illumination confirms proper power delivery.

3. Probe Installation

   • Fully insert current sensing ring connector until mechanical stop (audible click recommended)

   • Engage rotary locking mechanism when measuring high-vibration environments

   • Position test conductor through ring centroid to maintain ±0.5% accuracy tolerance

4. Measurement Initiation
   Energize the circuit only after completing steps 1-3 to prevent transient damage.

5. Post-Measurement Sequence

   • De-energize circuit before disconnecting probe

   • Power down measurement system

   • Store probe in anti-static packaging with desiccant

Measurement Precautions

1. Central Alignment Requirement
   Position the test conductor through the exact center of the probe ring during measurements. Off-center placement will degrade accuracy.

2. Junction Zone Avoidance
   The sensing ring's junction area exhibits maximum measurement deviation. Maintain a minimum 30mm clearance between the conductor and this high-error region.

3. Full Engagement Protocol
   Ensure the probe ring is fully inserted into its base connector (audible click confirmation) prior to measurement. Partial insertion introduces calibration errors.

4. EMI Mitigation - Low-Frequency Sources
   Maintain >1m distance from intense magnetic field sources (e.g., multi-turn inductive loads) during operation to prevent flux-induced measurement distortion.

5. EMI Mitigation - High-Speed Transients
   Avoid proximity to high-voltage transients (>100V/μs slew rates) or RF interference sources exceeding 1MHz. Such environments may trigger signal aliasing errors.

6. Ambient Noise Verification
   Perform pre-measurement interference checks:

• Position the unclamped probe ring near the test conductor

• Measure baseline noise levels using connected instrumentation

• Proceed only if interference remains below 2% of full-scale range

Maintenance & Care

1. Preserve Cleanliness: Maintain the probe in a clean, moisture-free state at all times.

2. Cleaning Protocol: If surface cleaning is required, gently wipe with a lint-free dry cloth. Chemical solvents or abrasive agents are strictly prohibited.

3. Storage Requirements: When not in use, store the probe within its original protective casing in a temperature-controlled, dust-free, and low-humidity environment.

4. Transportation Safety: During shipping or relocation, always utilize the manufacturer-provided anti-vibration packaging to prevent mechanical shocks.

5. Cable Integrity: Refrain from applying excessive tension or sharp bends to input/output cables. Avoid coiling, knotting, or angular distortions that may compromise internal conductors.
