Circutor M10232 EC96 5A Ammeter

The Circutor EC96 5A (code M10232) is a moving iron ammeter designed for panel installation, measuring alternating current up to 5 A with class 1.5 accuracy. Fitting a standard 96 x 96 mm panel cutout, it delivers a clear 90-degree arc reading and draws its working power directly from the measured circuit, requiring no separate auxiliary supply in standard use.

Features and benefits:

• No auxiliary power supply required - the instrument is energised by the measured current circuit, reducing wiring complexity and installation time.
• True RMS measurement - moving iron technology responds to the true root mean square of the current, giving accurate readings across the stated 20 to 100 Hz frequency range.
• Exchangeable scale plates - the dial is interchangeable with other instruments in the EC48, EC72, EC96, EM 45, EC 72 FA and EC 96 FA families, simplifying spares management.
• High overload tolerance - the meter withstands 40 times rated current for one second, offering protection during transient fault conditions on the measured circuit.
• IP 52 front protection - the panel face is sealed to IP 52, guarding the mechanism against dust ingress and light water spray in typical industrial enclosures.

Applications:

• AC current monitoring in industrial switchgear and motor control panels.
• Current indication in building electrical distribution boards and metering cubicles.
• Load monitoring in control desks and automation cabinets where a compact 96 x 96 mm instrument is required.
• Wherever a quick visual check of alternating current up to 5 A is needed in a panel-mounted format.
