Precision Shunts - 0.1 to 10 Amp
- HIGH ACCURACY
- 0.1 A TO 10 AMPS
- LOW TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENTS
- DC AND AC USE
- RUGGED
The CS series precision current shunts are designed for the most demanding measurement applications. These shunts provide excellent long term stability and very low coefficients of temperature. Although designed for laboratory use, they are rugged enough to be installed in environments subject to wide variations in temperature and to vibration or shock.
Every shunt is provided with accredited calibration at 25, 50 and 100 % rated current.
The CS-0.1 to CS-10 shunts exhibit close AC conformance to DC values. AC/DC difference is less than 0.01 % to 20 kHz.
The temperature coefficient of resistance is less than 5 ppm / °C.
Connection is made via gold plated binding posts, which accept bare wire, banana plugs and spades.
Standard models are listed, but other Amp/Volt combinations are available.
For the highest precision low resistance standards, please see information on our 2000 Series Low Resistance Standards. For economical secondary low resistance standards, please see information on our 1000 Series.
