PMK LILCO Series precision wideband RF current/pulse-current sensor CT, with excellent Droop characteristics and bandwidth up to 60 MHz, suitable for high-transient-current measurements such as large-scale scientific electromagnetic pulses, EMC, pulsed current, and surge current.
The PMK LILCO® Series current transformers have a bandwidth range from mHz to >60 MHz and an input current range from mA to 20 kA, enabling precision high-bandwidth AC current measurement required for various measurement applications. The current transformers can accurately measure large pulsed or continuous input currents, while electrical shielding between input and output reduces the influence of electromagnetic fields on the output.
Current isolation between input and output enables the LILCO® Series to be used in measurement setups with large potential differences, or in measurement setups where unwanted currents (such as ground loops) occur between input and output.
The BNC output of the LILCO® Series current transformers allows easy connection to various measurement instruments, such as oscilloscopes, digitizers, network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers, and digital multimeters, using only a standard 50Ω coaxial cable.
By changing the input termination of the measuring instrument, low-frequency performance and I·t capability can be improved, and the output signal can be attenuated. The LILCO® Series ATT10BNCS attenuator is used to further improve these specifications while maintaining the high-frequency performance of the current transformer.
The LILCO® Series inner diameter (in centimeters) is included in each model number:
For example, 13E1000 = 13 mm (0.5''), 26G0100 = 26 mm (1.0''), 52GH010 = 52 mm (2.0''), 58M1000 = 58 mm (2.2''), 89M0100 = 89 mm (3.5'').
All LILCO® current transformers are supplied with a factory calibration certificate.
The dedicated instruction manual for the LILCO Series contains much valuable information on the general limitations of using current transformers and how to perform accurate measurements in a single document.®
The LILCO wideband pulse current transformer probe is a high-performance probe designed specifically for high-frequency current measurement and can operate stably in complex current environments. Its design not only meets the requirements for wideband response and durability but also demonstrates excellent performance in drop resistance, I-t saturation curves, and high-temperature resistance. The probe inner diameter ranges from 13 mm to 89 mm, suitable for interface requirements of different circuit boards or equipment.
Main features:
1. Wideband response
Bandwidth range: 0.004 Hz to 60 MHz, enabling fast response to changes in current signals and suitable for accurate measurement at high frequencies.
Interference immunity: The wideband response design enables the probe to maintain accurate signal transmission in complex current environments.
2. Excellent drop resistance
Complete waveform reproduction: After external impact or drop, the probe can still fully reproduce the true waveform, avoiding signal distortion or data loss.
Impact resistance: Suitable for industrial environments requiring high reliability, such as power grid monitoring and communication systems.
3. Excellent I-t saturation curve
Accurate measurement: The probe has a good I-t saturation curve, can accurately capture instantaneous and sustained current values, and ensures the accuracy of measurement data.
Durability: The I-t saturation curve design makes the probe more difficult to burn out, reducing the risk of damage under high current or rapidly changing current.
4. Wide test current range
Current range: supports current measurement from mA level to 25kA level, capable of meeting the measurement needs of different industrial and electronic equipment.
Multi-scenario applicability: from low current to high current, the probe maintains stable performance and is suitable for power grids, communications, automotive electronics, and other scenarios.
5. Durable and reliable
High-temperature environment adaptability: the probe can operate normally in high-temperature environments from -55℃ to 155℃, suitable for harsh industrial measurement environments.
High-voltage withstand capability: input voltage up to 1250V, capable of meeting measurement needs in high-voltage environments.
6. Flexible operation
Inner diameter compatibility: inner diameter 13mm~89mm, capable of meeting the interface requirements of different circuit boards or equipment and providing flexible installation options.
PMK's LILCO series has established a position in the market mainly due to its favorable I-t characteristic curve and resistance to burnout. If you frequently use CT for measurement and also need to consider probe magnetic saturation, LILCO will be your ideal choice.
