Riedon RSB Series

  • Riedon

Product Features

  • Base mounted shunt
  • Output rating of 0.05V or 0.1V
  • Manganin® resistive element
  • Dielectric strength of 750VDC (terminal block to base)
  • Temperature range of -40° to +60°C

Applications

  • Compliant

The RSB series of precision current shunts from Riedon have been especially designed for DC ammeters and similar instruments. These base-mounted shunts offer current ratings from 170A up to 600A with outputs of 0.05V, 0.1V or custom options available. They utilise a Manganin® resistive element and have a standard tolerance of ±0.25% with ±0.1% parts available on request. The very low resistance values required for the shunt resistors, which range from 83.3µΩ at 600A to 588.2µΩ at 170A, are provided by the Manganin® resistive elements. The RSB precision shunt resistors feature a 4-terminal design, separating the heavy duty load carrying connections from the voltage sensing terminals.
