Ammeter АМ4100

Ammeter AM4100

АМ4100 is digital measuring, fully programmable device from series 4100, designed on basis of microcontrollers. It measures current up to 10 A AC/DC (it can measure any other current by connecting external shunt resistor or current sensor). AM4100 can be directly connected to current transformer with maximum secondary current of 10 AAC. The device has potential-free contacts for remote signalization if measured current goes out of certain specified range (option “R”). It is designed to be mounted on boards in control rooms of electrical substations.

user manual


AM4100 is offered in following variety*:

- (A/D) basic option, without any relay contacts, user menu is not code-protected
A AC current measure
D DC current measure
S for measuring with external shunt resistor
E for measure with external current sensor (it is needed the type of the sensor to be specified)
R there are three relay contacts that provide remote signalization, acting when certain programmed voltage levels are reached
C code-protected user menu
X user is not allowed to change device settings
* - Every option can be ordered in any combination with other options, excluding versions “A” and “D”, which exclude each other as well as versions “S” and “E” and versions “C” and “X”. One of the options - “A” or “D” must be specified.
