AC INPUT TRANSMITTERS
PLUG-IN MODULES, FIXED RANGE

JH6010I: AC Voltage Input, Isolated
JH6010IR: AC Voltage Input, Isolated, with True RMS Response
JH6020I: AC Current Input, Isolated
JH6020IR: AC Current Input, Isolated, with True RMS Response

The JH6010I/6020I series provides an isolated DC output proportional to an AC voltage or current input. Applications range from power monitoring to millivolt-level AC signals from sensors. Input/output isolation is standard to guard against shock hazards in power measurements and against ground loop errors.

Accuracy is better than 0.5% of span. True-rms models maintain accuracy even with nonsinusoidal waveforms. (Standard models are average-responding, calibrated for RMS sine wave response.)

Red-green Quick-Check LEDs give a quick indication of the relative output. Red is brighter at the low end, green at high, while at mid-scale both are approximately equal. Red-only indicates offscale low while green-only indicates offscale high.

Available options include AC or DC power choices and reverse-action Option RT (decreasing output with increasing input).

ORDERING INFORMATION

Model Number:   Select from the list above.  Add suffix -AC for AC power or -DC for DC power.
Input Range: Specify any AC voltage or current range allowed by the "Input Capabilities" spec, below.
Output Range:   Specify any DC voltage or current range allowed by the "Output Capabilities" spec, below.
Power: Specify 115Vac, 230Vac, 12Vdc, or 24Vdc.
Reverse-Acting Transmitter:   Decreasing output with increasing input.  Specify option RT.
Loop-Powered Output: 4/20 mA "current sink" output stage for connection to devices whose inputs provide 24 Vdc loop excitation.  Specify Option LPO.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

These transmitters plug into any standard 8-pin circular ("octal") relay socket. JH Technology offers two sockets: DS008 for DIN-rail or surface mounting and ST008 for Snap-Track mounting (see the Accessories page). Pin connections are:

Pin 1: Power (AC or, if DC power option, DC plus).
Pin 2: No connection.
Pin 3: Power (AC or, if DC power option, DC minus).
Pin 4: No connection.
Pin 5: AC signal input.
Pin 6: AC signal input.
Pin 7: Output plus.
Pin 8: Output minus.

APPLICATION NOTE – CURRENT TRANSFORMER INPUTS

When monitoring the output of a current transformer never use current-input Model JH6020I. Unplugging the module will remove the transformer’s secondary load, resulting in potentially damaging or dangerous voltage spikes (up to several hundred volts).

Instead, use voltage-input Model JH6010I with an appropriate precision external shunt resistor. For 0/5 amps we recommend specifying a 0/250mVac input range with a 0.05 ohm, 0.1% 3 watt external shunt. We offer Part No. R0.05/DS008, a precision shunt resistor assembly preassembled to socket DS008. The socket snaps onto DIN rail or may be surface mounted using screws.
