Gather the following components to connect a current transducer with voltage output.
  • Current transducer
  • SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable
  • EMI suppression snap-on ferrite (included)

Complete the following steps.

  1. Power off BTS-16110 and the system you are connecting to BTS-16110.
    Caution You must de-energize the system before you connect it to BTS-16110 for measurement. Follow all workplace safety requirements for powering down hazardous voltage systems based on the applicable codes and standards in your location.
  2. Install the snap-on ferrite onto the BNC cable portion of the SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable:
    1. Wrap the BNC cable portion of the SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable around one side of the ferrite so that it passes through the ferrite twice.

    2. Snap the ferrite closed to secure it in place.
  3. Connect the BNC connector on the SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable to the BNC port on the transducer.
  4. Connect the female D-sub connector on the SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable to the D-sub port on the transducer. Secure the connector by tightening the retention screws.
  5. Connect the male D-sub connector on the SHDB9M-DB9F-BNCM cable to the current transducer input port on BTS-16110 and tighten the retention screws.
