Manganin Shunts are widely used for energy meters, electric bicycles, cordless tools, and so on. A shunt is a precision resistor made of copper and manganin. Manganin is an alloy of typically 84% copper, 12% manganese, and 4% nickel. Manganin
Mini Current Transformer Technical Term
Miniature current transformers are important components for a variety areas of industry. According to the Chinese Industry Standard, many technical terms have been defined. Here we introduce some of these terms and give detail explain. Instrument TransformerInstrument transformer is a
Current Transformer: Manufacturing Process
Miniature current transformers are important components for energy meters, power measuring devices, and other instruments. Usually, there’s at least one coil in a CT. The busbar, which the primary current comes through, can be made together with the coil. Then,
Amorphous Nanocrystalline Core Structure
Amorphous Nanocrystalline Core Structure Solid or Split CT cores can be of a solid (closed) or split (open) type. The solid/split core defines how the CT core is designed, and how it can be installed. Solid core CTs feature a
Materials of CT Cores
Materials of CT Cores Core Material Current Transformers, or CTs are widely used in electrical devices and instruments. The core on which the secondary wire is wound plays a significant part in the performance of a CT. Core materials include
Popular Soft Magnetic Materials
Soft magnetic materials usually have low coercive force and narrow hysteresis loop. Soft magnetic materials are of main importance for modern electrical engineering and electronics and are indispensable for many devices and applications. Here we introduce some of the popular
Tape Wound Cores: Manufacturing Process
Amorphous and nanocrystalline cores are usually made by wound tapes or ribbons. Considering the high initial permeability and low coercivity, it can replace ferrite, permalloy or silicon steel. The manufacturing process of nanocrystalline and amorphous at Shanghai Xianyu Electronics is
Finish Types of Wound Cores
Nanocrystalline and amorphous cores are usually tape wounded. XIANYU rarely provide bare cores to customers, as bare cores are brittle and would be damaged easily during shipment. To protect these cores and make the electromagnetism property stable, several kinds of
Applications of Nanocrystalline Cores
The nanocrystalline soft magnetic materials are a good choice for magnetic component design in electronics and power electronics when their price is competitive. In comparison with amorphous alloys, nanocrystalline alloys are a better choice for power transformers and common mode
Amorphous VS Silicon Steel
Why so many transformers are using cores of amorphous instead of silicon steel? Because amorphous has higher permeability than silicon steel and much lower coercive force and remanence, although the material cost is higher. Amorphous VS Silicon Steel As a
