CS10-L and CS15-L Current
Transformers

1. General Description

Campbell Scientific’s CS10 and CS15 detect and measure the ac current along
an electrical wire using the magnetic field that is generated by that current.
The CS10 or the CS15 do not have direct electrical connection to the system.
These sensors output a millivolt signal allowing them to be directly connected
to our dataloggers.

The CS10 is compatible with our CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, CR510,
CR10(X), and CR23X dataloggers. It uses CR Magnetic’s CR8459 Current
Transducer to measure the approximate current over a range of 0 to 200 A.
The CS15 was developed specifically for our CR200(X)-series dataloggers. It
is a modified version of the CS10 that measures the approximate current over
the range of 0 to 125 A. Both sensors are recommended for measurements that
do not require high accuracy.
