  • Flexible mounting: vertical/horizontal with bolt, or DIN rail
  • Optional partition extends voltage creepage clearance
  • Withstands harsh environments due to full vacuum encapsulation
  • Certified for use on rolling stock according to EN 50155
  • For all DC and AC driven rolling stock, including diesel-electric vehicles
  • Proven usage in industrial applications with stringent safety requirements
  • Solution for safe monitoring of hydrogen electrolyzers and fuel cells  
  • 5-year warranty

The P45000-series transducers are designed for measuring high DC and AC voltages, especially in critical environments where its SIL2/ SIL3 certification helps to ensure functional safety.  Application examples include the control of traction motors on rolling stock, safe monitoring of hydrogen electrolyzers and fuel cells, and the electrical safeguarding of potentially dangerous plant floor manufacturing and testing areas.

The voltage measurement input is highly isolated from output and auxiliary power. The current output is compatible with commercially available control inputs.

The housing offers flexible mounting options: upright or horizontal, screwed or snapped onto 35 mm DIN rails. The devices can even be mounted in a stack, allowing for very tight space requirements.

For the first time, applications with functional safety requirements can be properly carried out. The high-voltage transmitter is certified for use in SIL2 systems, and SIL3 can be achieved in a redundant configuration. Thus, for example, the presence of dangerously high voltages can be reliably and safely detected.
