Lovato DM2TA0800 split-core current transformer with 800/5 A ratio, 80 x 80 mm opening, 3 VA class 0.5 and 7.5 VA class 1 burden for industrial energy monitoring.
£161.61
The Lovato DM2TA0800 is a high-performance split-core current transformer designed for accurate current measurement in industrial switchboards, electrical distribution panels and energy-monitoring systems. Featuring a 800/5 A transformation ratio, it converts a primary current of up to 800 A into a standard 5 A secondary output for connection to compatible energy meters, multifunction power analysers, ammeters and protection devices.
Its split-core construction allows the transformer to be installed around existing conductors or busbars without disconnecting the primary circuit, making it ideal for retrofit metering projects, energy-management upgrades and operational installations where downtime must be minimised. The robust housing and screw fixing provide dependable long-term performance in demanding industrial environments.
Designed for continuous operation at 50/60 Hz, the DM2TA0800 features a large 80 × 80 mm internal opening, 3 VA burden at accuracy class 0.5 and 7.5 VA burden at accuracy class 1, providing accurate and reliable current measurement across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
Current transformers safely reduce high primary currents into proportional low-current outputs suitable for measuring equipment. The Lovato DM2TA0800 converts currents up to 800 A into a standard 5 A secondary signal, enabling safe monitoring of electrical loads, energy consumption and system performance.
Its split-core construction removes the need to disconnect existing conductors during installation, making it particularly valuable when upgrading live electrical systems with additional metering or monitoring equipment while minimising operational disruption.
