AKM 46890/46812/48003

Winding temperature simulation systems

Accurate measurement of
transformer winding temperature
Compact sensor for remote indication and monitoring
Weatherproof design and robust materials for long trouble-free life

Product Summary
Description Resistance thermometer (RTD)

with built-in heating element to simulate

the measuring of winding temperatures within a

transformer. Provides an analog (Pt100) output

for remote indication and monitoring. Chioce of

one or two RTDs allows for an extra signal for

indication or input to SCADA system. Installed

in a well (pocket) that allows exchanging units

without draining the transformer tank.

Application For winding temperature

simulation where the point of measurement

(the well or pocket) is not easily viewed from

the base of the apparatus or the information is

required remotely.

 AKM 46890/46812/48003 winding temperature simulation systems

Accurate measurement of transformer Integrated heating element enables accurate simulation of the
winding temperature average or hot spot temperature of the transformer winding
By disconnecting the heating element, the thermometer can directly
measure the oil temperature
RTDs enable accurate measurments across an extremely large
temperature range

Compact sensor for remote indication RTD output allows for temperature indication where it is most convenient
and monitoring Choose between one or two RTDs within the same transmitter in
either Pt100 (100 platinum) or Cu10 (10 copper) resistance outputs
Units with 4-20 mA output can transmit signals over long distances

Weatherproof design and robust Ventilated case is weatherproof according to DIN 40050 IP54 (NEMA 3S)
materials for long trouble-free life Die-cast aluminum case with thermosetting powder coat provides
excellent protection in harsh environments

Options and accessories

Power supply units 48510 and 48450 Supplies 24 VDC for AKM winding temperature simulation systems
Ultra compact 48450 minimizes space and clearance needed
for installation
48510 accepts a wide range of input power (85-264 VAC or 120-370 VDC)

Remote indicator 47877 Analog gauge allows for accurate and easy temperature indication
at a glance
Two different sizes and several available temperature ranges offer a
perfect fit for any application

Remote digital indicator 47875 Display features large, highly visible, bright red LEDs
Accepts a 4-20 mA signal which represents the temperature range
of 0-150C

Signal converter 47675

Converts a Pt100 to a 4-20 mA signal for use with remote indicators
or connecting to a SCADA system
4-20 mA signal can be transmitted great distances without degradation
Corrosion resistant design is weatherproof according to IP54
