'ATR' transducers from NK Technologies combine a current transformer and a True RMS signal conditioner into a single package.  The ATR Series provides True RMS output on distorted waveforms found on VFD or SCR outputs, and on linear loads in “noisy” power environments. Available in a solid or split-core case.

Selecting the right transducer:  The current waveform of a typical linear load is a pure sine wave. In VFD and SCR applications, however, output waveforms are rough approximations of a sine wave.  There are numerous spikes and dips in each cycle. ATR transducers use a mathematical algorithm called "True RMS," which integrates the actual waveform over time. The output is the amperage component of the true power (heating value) of the AC current waveform. True RMS is the only way to accurately measure distorted AC waveforms. Select ATR transducers for nonlinear loads or in “noisy” power environments.

VFD Controlled Loads

  • VFD output indicates how the motor and attached load are operating
  • SCR Controlled Loads

  • Accurate measurement of phase angle fired or burst fired (time proportioned) SCRs. Current measurement gives faster response than temperature measurement
  • Switching Power Supplies and Electronic Ballasts

  • True RMS sensing is the most accurate way to measure power supply or ballast input power
