Conditions of acceptability
When installed in the end-use equipment, consideration shall be given to the following:
1 - These devices must be mounted in a suitable end-use enclosure.
2-T
he terminals have not been evaluated for field wiring.
3 - The LES, LESR, LKSR, LPSR, LXS and LXSR Series shall be used in a pollution degree 2 environment or better.
4-L
ow voltage circuits are intended to be powered by a circuit derived from an isolating source (such as a transformer, optical
isolator, limiting impedance or electro-mechanical relay) and having no direct connection back to the primary circuit (other than
through the grounding means).
5-T
hese devices are intended to be mounted on the printed wiring board of the end-use equipment (with a minimum CTI of 100).
6-L
ES, LESR, LKSR and LPSR Series: based on results of temperature tests, in the end-use application, a maximum of 110°C
cannot be exceeded on the primary jumper.
Marking
Only those products bearing the UL or UR Mark should be considered to be Listed or Recognized and covered under UL’s FollowUp Service. Always look for the Mark on the product.

Performance parameters definition
Ampere-turns and amperes
Magnetic offset
The transducer is sensitive to the primary current linkage ΘP
(also called ampere-turns).
The magnetic offset current IO M is the consequence of a current
on the primary side (“memory effect” of the transducer’s
ferromagnetic parts). It is measured using the following primary
current cycle. IO M depends on the current value IP1 (IP1 > IP M).
ΘP = NP⋅IP (At)
Where NP is the number of primary turn (depending on
the connection of the primary jumpers)
Caution: As most applications will use the transducer with only
one single primary turn (NP = 1), much of this datasheet is
written in terms of primary current instead of current linkages.
However, the ampere-turns (At) unit is used to emphasis that
current linkages are intended and applicable.
Transducer simplified model
The static model of the transducer at temperature TA is:
IS = G⋅ΘP + ε
In which ε =
IO E + IO T (TA) + εG ⋅ΘP⋅G + εL (ΘP max)⋅ΘP max⋅G + TCG⋅(TA−25)⋅ΘP⋅G
With: ΘP = NP⋅IP

This model is valid for primary ampere-turns ΘP between
−ΘP max and +ΘP max only.
Sensitivity and linearity
To measure sensitivity and linearity, the primary current (DC) is
cycled from 0 to IP, then to −IP and back to 0 (equally spaced
IP/10 steps). The sensitivity G is defined as the slope of the
linear regression line for a cycle between ±IP N.
The linearity error εL is the maximum positive or negative
difference between the measured points and the linear
regression line, expressed in % of IP N.

Application information
Filtering and decoupling
Supply voltage UC
The transducer has internal decoupling capacitors, but in
the case of a power supply with high impedance, it is highly
recommended to provide local decoupling (100 nF or more,
located close to the transducer) as it may reduce disturbance
on transducer output Vout and reference Vref due to high varying
primary current. The transducer power supply rejection ratio is
low at high frequency.
Output Vout
The output Vout has a very low output impedance of typically
1 Ohm; it can drive capacitive loads of up to 100 nF directly.
Adding series resistance Rf of several tenths of Ohms allows
much larger capacitive loads Cf (higher than 1 µF). Empirical
evaluation may be necessary to obtain optimum results. The
minimum load resistance on Vout is 1 kOhm.

Safety
This transducer must be used in limited-energy secondary circuits according to IEC 61010-1.
This transducer must be used in electric/electronic equipment with respect to applicable standards and safety requirements in
accordance with the manufacturer’s operating instructions.
Caution, risk of electrical shock
When operating the transducer, certain parts of the module can carry hazardous voltage (e.g. primary busbar, power supply).
Ignoring this warning can lead to injury and/or cause serious damage.
This transducer is a build-in device, whose conducting parts must be inaccessible after installation.
A protective housing or additional shield could be used. Main supply must be able to be disconnected.
Remark
Installation of the transducer must be done unless otherwise specified on the datasheet, according to LEM Transducer Generic
Mounting Rules. Please refer to LEM document N°ANE120504 available on our Web site: Products/Product Documentation.
Definition of typical, minimum and maximum values
Minimum and maximum values for specified limiting and safety conditions have to be understood as such as well as values shown
in “typical” graphs.
On the other hand, measured values are part of a statistical distribution that can be specified by an interval with upper and lower
limits and a probability for measured values to lie within this interval.
Unless otherwise stated (e.g. “100 % tested”), the LEM definition for such intervals designated with “min” and “max” is that the
probability for values of samples to lie in this interval is 99.73 %.
For a normal (Gaussian) distribution, this corresponds to an interval between −3 sigma and +3 sigma. If “typical” values are not
obviously mean or average values, those values are defined to delimit intervals with a probability of 68.27 %, corresponding to an
interval between −sigma and +sigma for a normal distribution.
Typical, maximal and minimal values are determined during the initial characterization of the product.
