New current measuring transducers from the ECM UC product family from Phoenix Contact save users plenty of time with the intuitive device configuration via web-based management. The products measure direct, alternating, and distorted currents in four measuring ranges, starting from 0 to 100 mA through to max. 0 to 100 A, with a transmission error of <0.5%. Modbus versions enable the digital further processing of the measured data.

Because the ECM current measuring transducers can be configured via web-based management, cumbersome software downloading is no longer necessary. Here, the device is simply connected to the PC via a standard USB-C cable. During the configuration process, both data transmission and power is supplied to the device via the USB-C cable. An external 24 V DC supply is not required to operate the current measuring transducer.

The intuitive menu navigation simplifies the settings on the device. In addition, the live measured data of the current components, such as the AC and DC currents, can be visualized simultaneously in different windows. The device settings are saved in a configuration file and can be imported easily to other devices, enabling the rapid commissioning of several measuring transducers with the same configuration.

The current measuring transducers of the ECM UC series measure direct, alternating, and distorted currents in accordance with the true RMS value measurement principle.
