Functional Devices RIBXGTA-NC Sensor
The RIBXGTA-NC is a solid-state split-core current sensor engineered for precise HVAC motor status monitoring and load detection. Designed for versatility in the field, this AC current transducer features a 0-5 Vdc output proportional to the 0-150A sensing range, allowing for seamless integration with BMS and DDC controllers. The split-core design facilitates installation on existing wiring without requiring circuit disconnection, while the self-powered circuitry eliminates the need for external power supplies. With a fixed threshold sensing capability, this unit is ideal for identifying belt loss, coupling shear, or motor burnout on critical mechanical equipment. The true current sensing technology ensures accurate feedback across a specified frequency range, providing contractors with a reliable current monitoring switch that withstands demanding commercial environments. Its compact housing fits easily into tight electrical panels, making the RIBXGTA-NC a standard choice for current-sensing relay applications requiring high-performance signal conditioning.
Key Benefits- Enhanced Monitoring Accuracy: Delivers a 0-5 Vdc linear output for precise load tracking and performance diagnostics.
- Streamlined Installation: The split-core architecture allows for quick retrofit mounting around conductors up to 150 Amps.
- Zero Maintenance: Self-powered induction design reduces wiring complexity and potential points of failure.
- Durable Construction: Built to withstand industrial electrical noise and temperature fluctuations in mechanical rooms.
- Universal Compatibility: Interfaces directly with standard analog inputs on most building automation controllers.
What is the primary application for the 0-5 Vdc output?
The 0-5 Vdc signal is used to provide a proportional analog value to a controller, allowing for real-time monitoring of current draw rather than just a binary on/off status.
Can this sensor be used on VFD-controlled motors?
Yes, it is designed to monitor current on the line side of a VFD, though users should ensure the frequency falls within the unit's rated operating range for accurate output.
Does the RIBXGTA-NC require a separate power source?
No, the device is induced from the monitored conductor, making it a completely self-powered solution for simple two-wire integration.
