Need accuracy monitoring non-sinusoidal or sinusoidal wave forms?
This model can measure the current of waveforms that are not purely sinusoidal, enabling it to be used in applications involving VFDs, phase angle dimmers, switching power supplies and more.
The RIBXGT420-RMS is a current transducer capable of measuring any type of AC current you can throw at it (as long as you don’t exceed the datasheet specifications). VFD? No problem. Square wave? Yes. A really poorly made UPS that outputs the minimum legal definition of a sine wave? The RIBXGT420-RMS can handle it. The “RMS” stands for “root mean square” which means it characterizes the whole wave and does some math to output an average current. When your VFD is pulsing at 200 Hz, have no fear that the RIBXGT420-RMS will understand it.
