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.

In its normal working mode AM4100 shows measured current
(referred to the primary side of current transformer if
coupled with) and continuously signalizes if the current
is in certain programmed range by light-emitting diodes
and relay contacts. If the current is out of range, the
display blinks with frequency of about 2-3Hz (blinking can
be turned off any time from user menu). The device signalizes
that measured current has gone outside range after programmed
amount of time (programmed as number of consecutive measurements
which are outside range). It is done in order to prevent
random short-time switching of the relays. Hysteresis is
also added to relay switch-off characteristics to further
improve noise characteristics of the remote signaling. If
the current goes again in the specified range plus hysteresis
current, AM4100 turns off the relays instantly without any
delay.
