LMHK-612 (60×120 mm Window) Clamp / Split-Core Current Transformer • 4000/5A • Accuracy Class 0.5
Pickup currently not available
Product Description
Overview
The LMHK-612 4000/5A Accuracy Class 0.5 is a high-capacity split-core current transformer, designed for accurate measurement of up to 4000 Amps AC in systems where large conductors or busbars are present. The 60×120 mm window makes it suitable for thick conductors or grouped busbars without requiring disconnection. Accuracy Class 0.5 ensures ±0.5% maximum error under rated conditions—ideal for precision monitoring, energy metering, or power quality tasks.
Key Features
-
Primary Current Rating: 4000 A AC
-
Secondary Current Rating: 5 A AC — gives a 4000:5 ratio
-
Accuracy Class: 0.5 (±0.5%) under rated burden
-
Window / Aperture Size: Approx. 60 × 120 mm — large opening for busbars or large conductors
-
Design: Split-core / clamp-on, allowing retrofit installation or installation without breaking primary conductors
-
Frequency Range: Typically 50 / 60 Hz (HK series)
-
Housing & Material: Flame-retardant plastics, epoxy / PBT internals (based on similar Heyi products) with good insulation and mechanical protection
Additional Specifications (Typical / Expected)
Specification | Value / Typical |
---|---|
Burden (VA) | ~ 15-30 VA typical for 4000/5A in Class 0.5 HK / HK-812 style CTs |
Measuring Range | Often from ~10% of rated primary up to ~120% without large error (HK-series support) |
Dielectric / Insulation | Good insulation; likely a dielectric test voltage of ~2.5 kV / 1 minute in many HK-models |
Operating Temperature | Typically −25 °C to +75 °C (ambient) in Heyi HK models |
Phase Angle Error | Usually small, ≤ ±30 minutes under rated conditions in HK series CTs |
Use-Case / Applications
-
Industrial switchgear, distribution boards with large busbars drawing high current
-
Power monitoring & metering for large loads (motors, transformer feeders)
-
Energy management systems, power quality analysis, and protection instrumentation
-
Retrofitting mature systems where shutting off or disconnecting primary conductors is problematic
Installation & Safety Notes
-
Ensure that the conductor(s) to pass through the 60×120 mm window fit cleanly, without bending insulation or causing strain
-
Always terminate the secondary circuit to a measurement device or burden; never leave the secondary open with the primary energized — open secondary can lead to dangerously high voltages
-
Secure the clamp fully, ensure mechanical stability, avoid vibration or movement that could shift its position (which can affect accuracy)
-
Install in environment adhering to temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic standards of the spec sheet
-
Follow local electrical safety codes, ensure sufficient insulation, proper wiring, etc.
Benefits
-
Precise measurement with ±0.5% accuracy — good for billing and quality monitoring
-
Large aperture size allows use with large conductors or busbars without disruptive rewiring
-
Clamp/on split-core design simplifies installation and maintenance
-
Robust design suited for industrial environments
