In industrial electrical systems, scenarios such as frequency converter speed regulation, power equipment upgrades, and new energy grid connection commonly face the dual challenges of high-frequency harmonic currents and transient high-intensity currents. Traditional current sensors, due to insufficient bandwidth or weak surge protection, are prone to measurement distortion or equipment damage. CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 series current sensors wide frequency band Hall current sensor, with its ultra-wide bandwidth of DC~40kHz and high-intensity current carrying capacity of 800-5000A, has become a core component for accurate measurement and safety assurance in complex industrial current scenarios.

I. Technical Pain Points in Complex Industrial Current Scenarios

1.Measurement Distortion of High-Frequency Harmonics The PWM current output by power electronic devices such as frequency converters and inverters contains a large number of high-frequency harmonics (usually 10-20kHz). Traditional sensors, due to bandwidth limitations (usually <10kHz), will cut off the high-frequency components, resulting in an error of >5% in the calculation of the effective value of the current, which affects the motor control accuracy and energy efficiency optimization.

2.Risk of Transient High-Intensity Current Impact: During motor startup, short-circuit faults, or capacitor switching, the peak current can reach 5-7 times the rated value (e.g., a 5000A transient impact). Traditional sensors, due to insufficient overload capacity, are prone to saturation or damage, leading to protection system failure and potential equipment burnout or fire hazards.

3.Poor Multi-condition Compatibility: Industrial environments require simultaneous monitoring of steady-state current (e.g., motor rated operation) and transient current (e.g., fault impact). Traditional sensors have fixed ranges and bandwidths, making it difficult to dynamically adapt to wide-range current variations. This necessitates the deployment of multiple sets of equipment, increasing cost and complexity.

II. Core Technological Advantages of CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor: Synergistic Design of Wide Bandwidth and High Strength

1. DC~40kHz Ultra-Wide Bandwidth: Complete Capture of High-Frequency Harmonics
Technical Principle: Based on the Hall effect for non-contact measurement, combined with high-speed signal conditioning circuitry and low parasitic capacitance design, CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor bandwidth covers DC up to 40kHz, completely capturing high-frequency harmonics (such as the 10-20kHz components generated by PWM modulation) in the inverter output current.

Application Value: Avoids measurement errors caused by high-frequency signal truncation, providing accurate data for algorithms such as motor vector control and harmonic compensation, improving system energy efficiency by 5%-8%.

Comparative Data: Traditional magnetoresistive sensors typically have a bandwidth <20kHz, with high-frequency harmonic measurement errors >3%; CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor controls the error to <1%, meeting the requirements of the IEC61800-3 inverter standard. All CHIPSENSE current sensors have high requirements.

2.800-5000A high-intensity current carrying capacity: worry-free transient impact.

Overload Capacity: CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor employs a high-permeability magnetic core and high-temperature resistant winding design, capable of withstanding twice the rated current (e.g., the 1000A model can withstand 2000A from CHIPSENSE) for 10 seconds, and withstands transient impacts of five times the rated current (e.g., 5000A) without damage, meeting the requirements for short-circuit protection and motor starting scenarios.

Range Flexibility: Offers seven range models: 800A, 1200A, 2000A, 3000A, and 5000A, supporting full-range monitoring from light-load operation to fault over-current, without the need for sensor switching. CHIPSENSE current sensors have different measurement ranges for different applications.

Safety Certification: CHIPSENSE current sensors Certified by UL60950-1 and tested by IEC61010-1 withstand voltage, with a primary-secondary isolation withstand voltage of 3.6kV, ensuring operational safety in high-voltage environments.

3. Optimized Interference Resistance and Stability: Reliable Operation in Industrial Fields
Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR): >60dB, effectively suppressing power line noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring stable measurement in environments with strong interference such as frequency converters and welding machines.
Temperature Stability: Zero-point temperature drift ≤±0.5mV/℃, linearity temperature drift ≤±0.02%/℃, adaptable to industrial environments from -40℃ to 85℃, requiring no frequent calibration for long-term use.

III. Typical Application Scenarios Analysis: Precise Measurement from Variable Frequency Drives to Power System Upgrades

1. Variable Frequency Drive Output Current Monitoring
Pain Point: Variable frequency drive (VFD) PWM output contains 10-20kHz harmonics. Traditional sensors suffer from insufficient bandwidth, leading to harmonic distortion and affecting motor control accuracy.
CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor Solution: Captures the current waveform completely with a 40kHz bandwidth, combined with high-precision measurement (error < ±1%), providing accurate harmonic compensation data for the VFD, improving motor operating efficiency by 3%-5%.
Case Data: In a VFD upgrade project at a steel plant, after adopting the HK4V H00 current sensor of CHIPSENSE, motor harmonic losses decreased from 8% to 3%, resulting in annual electricity savings of over 500,000 kWh.

2. Motor Starting and Short Circuit Protection
Pain Point: Motor starting current can reach 5-7 times the rated value (e.g., a 1000A motor starting current of 5000A). Traditional sensors are prone to saturation due to insufficient overload capacity, leading to protection delays.
CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor Solution: The 5000A range model can withstand transient impacts without damage. A 3μs response time quickly triggers the circuit breaker to trip, limiting short-circuit faults to the millisecond level and preventing equipment damage.
Protection Logic: Real-time monitoring of peak current. When the current exceeds a set threshold (e.g., 1.5 times the rated current), a protection signal is output within 0.1ms to ensure system safety.

3. Power Equipment Retrofitting and Grid Connection
Pain Point: When retrofitting old equipment or connecting new energy sources to the grid, the current waveform is complex (containing DC components and high-frequency noise). Traditional sensors cannot adapt to the diverse operating conditions.
CHIPSENSE HK4V H00 current sensor Solution: DC~40kHz bandwidth and 800-5000A measurement range cover steady-state and transient currents, supporting full monitoring from equipment commissioning to grid-connected operation, reducing modification risks.
Compatible Design: Open-type structure supports direct through-hole installation of the primary conductor without disconnection or circuit modification, adapting to different cable specifications (e.g., Φ10mm to Φ50mm).
