Simply pass the secondary/output wires of the "primary" CT through the ACA5-20PC's on-board CT, apply power to the meter, and you're instantly measuring ac currents over one of 14 ranges from 0-50A (with 100mA resolution) to 0-2000A (with 1A resolution). Because they accept outputs from previously installed high-current CT's, ACA5-20PC's can instantly bring modern digital precision to older ac ammeters. The functionally complete ACA5-20PC ammeters incorporate scaling/interface circuitry to mate the on-board CT to a precision (3½ digit) A/D converter. The A/D's output directly drives the meters' large (0.37"/9.4mm digit height), easy-to-read, LED displays. All models employ auto-zero circuits, precision bandgap references, and super stable metal-film resistors for unsurpassed accuracy (±0.15%FS) and stability. ACA5-20PC meters are either ac (120/220Vac @ 50/60Hz) or dc (+5-40V) powered. AC models can be powered by the same ac supply whose current they are monitoring. All ACA5-20PCs provide 2000Vdc isolation between the measured ac current and their power supply, and all models are UL/CSA recognized. Each meter is housed in a subminiature, 1.38" x 0.88", epoxy-encapsulated package whose behind-the-panel installation depth is 2 inches. Display color options include standard red, high-intensity red, and standard green. Each meter is supplied with a plastic bezel assembly with sealing gaskets (MPS DMS-BZL4-C).

To ensure safe and reliable operation, ACA5-20PC ammeters must be installed and serviced by qualified technical personnel. Contact Murata Power Solutions if there is any doubt regarding ammeter installation and/or operation. 1. Measurement Type: ACA5-20PC ac ammeters employ a full-waverectified, average responding, rms-calibrated circuit to measure the stepped-down output of their built-in L1 current transformer (CT) . Stated accuracy specifications are measured using a sine-wave current at or close to the full-scale input level, at nominal line frequency. 2. Calibration: Periodic recalibration of ACA5-20PC ammeters is not required under normal, indoor operating environments. If user calibration is necessary, it should be performed by qualified technical personnel. Calibration is performed with potentially lethal voltages applied to the ACA5-20PC and its associated wiring, with the specified full-scale current flowing through the ammeter’s built-in current transformer. A plastic, fully-insulated adjusting tool must be used to access the recessed calibration potentiometer located on the back of the meter (see Mechanical Specifications). Contact MPS if additional information is required regarding calibration, setup, or any other technical issue pertaining to ACA5-20PC ammeters. 3. Wire Gauges and Fusing: Wires specified in the Functional Specifications section must be used for making connections to ACA5-20PC Series ammeters. All power-supply and load wiring must be rated for the supply voltages and currents they will conduct and must comply with any code or application-mandated requirements pertaining to the user’s specific installation. www.murata-ps.com/support MPM_ACA5-20PC.C02  Page 2 of 5 ACA5-20PC Series 5 Amp Input LED-Display AC Ammeters ACA5-20PC series ammeters are not internally fused. Terminal block TB1 is to be used only for powering the ammeters’ internal circuitry; it must not be used to supply power to external loads. The supply wires feeding these ammeters must be fused with a 0.25A/250V time delay/time lag fuse, in accordance with applicable regulatory codes. ing one of the external 5A CT’s output leads to earth/chassis ground. In the USA, consult the latest revision of the National Electrical Code (NEC) for more information regarding CT grounding. Wire insulation must be stripped to within ±10% of the stated dimensions, and wires should be inserted into TB1 such that their insulation is not pinched by the screw terminal. After all mechanical assembly is completed, connect the two output leads of the external 5A CT to each other after they are run through L1’s center hole. Pressure-style connectors (commonly refered to as “wire nuts”) are acceptable as long as they are rated for the number of conductors and voltage invloved. 10. Replacing Analog Panel Meters: ACA5-20PC ammeters can be used as direct replacements for analog panel meters driven by 5A CT’s. All wiring operations must be performed with both the load and the supply power sources completely de-energized. 4. AC Supply Polarity and Grounding: The two supply inputs, TB1-A and TB1-B, on all ac-powered ACA5-20PC ammeters are not in themselves polarity sensitive, that is, they have no internal "AC LO" or "AC HI" designations. Also, ac-powered ACA5-20PC ammeters do not include or require a connection to earth/chassis ground. 5. Connector Torque Ratings: It is important to tighten TB1's, screwterminals to their rated torque specification of 3.6 pound-inches (0.4Nm). Proper tightening will minimize connector losses and ensure safe, reliable operation. 6. DC-Powered Models: DC-powered models draw minimal supply currents (120mA max.) and in most applications can be fused according to the supply wire’s maximum amperage rating. However, be sure to check and comply with all applicable codes and regulations to ensure proper installation and operation. PANEL INSTALLATION 7. Isolation: The on-board CT (L1) provides a minimum 2000Vdc isolation between the current-carrying conductor passing through its primary circuit and the ammeter supply voltage connected to TB1. This isolation rating only applies to applications in which the load wiring (i.e., the wire passing through L1’s center hole) does not connect directly or indirectly to TB1-A or TB1-B. Care should be exercised when passing conductors through the ammeter’s built-in CT. The installed wire positions should be such that minimal forces are applied to the built-in CT, TB1, or to the ammeter itself. In high-vibration environments, proper strain reliefs must be used for all load and supply wiring. All connections to ACA5-20PC Series ammeters must be made after the ammeter is securely attached to the panel and with all load and supply voltages de-energized (off). To ensure a secure panel-mount installation, MPS recommends using the DMS-BZL4-C bezel assembly (with sealing gasket) supplied with each ammeter. See Mechanical Specifications for detailed cutout and ammeter dimensions. 8. CT Precautions: In normal operation, a 5A current transformer’s secondary circuit operates at a very low voltage due to its closedloop operation and its low burden resistance. However, a CT can still generate potentially lethal voltages if its output current is suddenly interrupted. For example, loose CT secondary connections can cause a condition referred to as “inductive kick". Inductive kick can generate extremely high voltages across intermitent secondary connections. Therefore, implementing connections to any 5A current transformer’s output leads must only be performed with zero load-current, that is, with no power applied to the load circuit. Following the four-step sequence shown in Figure 2 — being careful not to apply excessive force or twisting motions — insert the ammeter into the panel opening. When using the DMS-BZL4-C, install its sealing gasket so it is positioned between the ammeter’s front flange and panel front surface (see Mechanical Specifications). Be sure to use and securely tighten all four screws supplied with the bezel assembly. 9. CT Connections and Grounding: Some applications require connectStep 1. Step 2. Step 3.
