Why Choose the Lovato DM5TP1000 Current Transformer?

The Lovato DM5TP1000 is a precision solid-core current transformer designed for electrical current measurement in industrial switchboards, power distribution systems and energy monitoring installations. With a 1000/5 A transformation ratio, it converts a 1000 A primary current into a standard 5 A secondary signal for compatible meters, power analysers and monitoring equipment.

As part of the Lovato DM5TP current transformer range, the DM5TP1000 features a large 85.5 mm diameter cable opening and is also suitable for 100 × 20 mm or 80 × 45 mm busbars. Its solid-core construction makes it particularly suitable for permanent installations where the conductor can be routed through the transformer during assembly.

The DM5TP1000 provides accuracy class 0.5S at 5 VA and accuracy class 0.5 at 10 VA. It operates at 50–60 Hz, has a rated insulation voltage of 720 V and features screw secondary terminals with DIN rail or screw fixing for flexible integration into industrial electrical assemblies.

Key Advantages

  • 1000/5 A transformation ratio for industrial current measurement.
  • 85.5 mm diameter cable opening accommodates large conductors.
  • Suitable for 100 × 20 mm and 80 × 45 mm busbars.
  • Class 0.5S accuracy at 5 VA for precision metering applications.
  • Class 0.5 accuracy at 10 VA provides additional measurement capacity.
  • DIN rail or screw fixing enables flexible installation in electrical panels.

Key Features

  • Lovato DM5TP precision solid-core current transformer.
  • 1000 A rated primary current.
  • 5 A rated secondary current.
  • 85.5 mm internal opening diameter.
  • 5 VA burden at accuracy class 0.5S.
  • 10 VA burden at accuracy class 0.5.
  • 50–60 Hz operational frequency.
  • 720 V rated insulation voltage.
  • Screw-type secondary terminals for secure wiring.
  • IP30 protection rating.

Precision Current Measurement for Industrial Systems

Current transformers enable large primary currents to be measured by converting them into a lower proportional secondary current suitable for electrical instrumentation. The Lovato DM5TP1000 provides a standard 5 A secondary output, allowing compatible meters and power monitoring equipment to measure currents in industrial distribution systems without carrying the full primary current through the measuring instrument.

The DM5TP1000 combines a large conductor aperture with precision 0.5S measurement capability, making it particularly suitable for energy metering and monitoring applications. Its solid-core construction is ideal for new switchboard installations where the cable or busbar can be routed through the transformer during assembly.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electrical switchboards and distribution panels.
  • Energy metering and monitoring systems.
  • Power analysers and multifunction measuring instruments.
  • Large cable current measurement.
  • Busbar current monitoring systems.
  • Industrial plants and power distribution installations.
