About DC Shunt

DC Shunt

Since 1982, we have been offering our clients DC Shunt with current ranging from 5-10000 Amps and voltage drops of 75 milli volts. Our company fabricates these shunts with quality raw materials such as Managing Rods Soldered or Silver Brazed to Brass end blocks by meeting IS Standards 1248. We also fabricate according to standard and customized range. Our range is reputed for precision engineering,efficient performance, durability and price affordability.

Technical Specification:

Accuracy: Class 1

Overload: We fabricate shunt, which can withstand temperatures up to 120 C without any permanent changes in physical or electrical properties. Overloads and faults can be safely handled, which can results in temperatures of this magnitude.

All 75 millie volts drop shunts of class 1, withstand the following overload requirements:

2 X rated current for 3 minutes.
4 X rated current for 30 seconds.10 X rated current for 5 seconds.

Temperature Co-Efficient:

0.002% Per degree centigrade, above ambient temperature in still air, with free ventilation. Temperature not exceeding 120^oC at the center and 90^oC at the ends.

FAQs of DC Shunt:

Q: How do I install the DC shunt with screw brass terminals?

A: The DC shunt is designed for straightforward installation using the provided screw brass terminals. It can be securely mounted onto either a control panel or a base mount frame, depending on your project requirements.

Q: What benefits does the anti-rust coating provide?

A: The anti-rust coating enhances the longevity and reliability of the shunt by protecting its high-strength alloy body from corrosion, especially in harsh industrial environments.

Q: When should I select the 10A500A current range variant?

A: Choose a DC shunt within this current range when you need precise current measurement for circuits operating anywhere from 10 amperes up to 500 amperes, ensuring compatibility with a wide array of electrical setups.

Q: Where can this DC shunt be used?

A: This DC shunt is suitable for use in industrial applications requiring reliable current monitoring, including power distribution panels, battery management systems, and other heavy-duty electrical setups.

Q: What is the process for measuring current with this device?

A: Install the shunt in series with the load circuit. Measure the voltage drop across its terminals; the current can then be accurately determined using standard formulas, thanks to its precise resistance value.

Q: Why is low contact resistance important in a DC shunt?

A: Low contact resistance (below 0.5 m) ensures minimal power loss and enhanced measurement accuracy, which is crucial for dependable current sensing in sensitive applications.

Q: What advantages does PVC construction offer for this shunt?

A: PVC provides insulation, mechanical strength, and added safety. Combined with the robust alloy structure, it results in a durable component suitable for rigorous electrical environments.
