Made in the USA 

Since 1955, Pearson Electronics has been manufacturing current transformer products. Our website is designed to simplify the selection of the right current probe to fit your application. Our current sensors feature pulse-current monitoring down to less than 1ns, making these high frequency current transformers ideal for a world of applications

Wideband Current Monitors & Clamps

Data

Selection Guide

Whether you are interested in observing and measuring submilliamp currents in a charged particle beam or thousands of amps resulting from a fault in a major power feeder, you will find a wideband Pearson current monitor or clamp to suit your needs.

The use of our patented distributed termination technique permits pulse-current monitoring of rise times as short as two nanoseconds. Our current sensor devices of larger inner diameter make possible high voltage current measurement without the risk of voltage breakdown.

Several of our current transformer models feature double shielding for greater noise immunity and increased safety in high voltage applications. All models are sealed and are suitable for use in high voltage insulating oil or under vacuum.

They can be connected to oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers, digital voltmeters, analog-to-digital convertors, and a variety of other measuring instruments.

Pearson Clamp On Current Clamp Sizes

Accuracy ±1%, initial pulse response for all models unless otherwise stated, with a high impedance load such as 1 megOhm in parallel with 20 pF. A 50 termination will reduce the output to half.  

Droop:  For a flat top current pulse, the output voltage decays toward zero. Initially, the decay appears linear and the slope is referred to as the droop rate.

Usable Rise Time: If the 10% to 90% rise time is greater than the specified usable rise time, initial overshoot will be less than 10% of the pulse amplitude.

Accuracy ±1%, initial pulse response for all models unless otherwise stated, with a high impedance load such as 1 m in parallel with 20 pF. A 50 termination will reduce the output to half.

Droop: For a flat top current pulse, the output voltage declines toward zero. Initially, the decay appears linear and the slope is referred to as the droop rate.

Usable Rise Time: If the 10 to 90% rise time is greater than the specified usable rise time, initial overshoot will be less than 10% of the pulse amplitude.

Pearson Coaxial Current Monitor

Pearson Electronics introduces a new wide band current monitor that allows you to easily measure current within a coaxial cable system. The current monitor can be inserted within a coaxial cable run by means of two BNC connectors.

Pearson 6027 Coaxial Current Monitor

The Model 6027 has a 3dB bandwidth from 300 Hz to 200 MHz and an rms current rating of 2.5 Amperes. 

Accuracy of 1%, or better, is obtainable across the mid-band.  

Pulse currents up to 100 Amperes peak and rise times as short as 2 nanoseconds can be viewed faithfully.

Other coaxial designs include ones with HN and triax connectors as well as ones that are double shielded.
