The flexible current transformer HX0073 from Metrix is a specially developed accessory for SCOPIX oscilloscopes of the OX 9000 and OX 7000 series. It is designed for precise measurement of alternating currents in the range of 1 A to 300 A RMS and is particularly intended for applications in enclosures and power electronics. The flexible design allows easy encirclement of cables even in confined spaces, making it ideal for maintenance and repair work. The encirclement diameter is 35 mm, enabling adaptation to many standard cables and conductors. The bandwidth of 3 MHz ensures accurate capture of even high-frequency current signals, which is important for analysis in modern electronic systems.
Current transformer for AC measurements in the range 1 A to 300 A RMS
The HX0073 is a
flexible current transformer from the MiniAmpFlex® series, connected to the oscilloscope via the PROBIX system. This system enables automatic recognition of the transformer upon connection, allowing the oscilloscope to directly retrieve technical data such as measurement range, bandwidth, and calibration values. This eliminates manual settings and minimizes the risk of user errors. Power supply and calibration of the probe are provided directly by the oscilloscope, simplifying handling and increasing measurement reliability.
PROBIX system for automatic recognition and calibration
The PROBIX system ensures fast and error-free operation. Upon connecting the current transformer to the oscilloscope, it is immediately recognized, and the device automatically adjusts to the correct settings. Display of information and safety warnings regarding the connected accessory is also handled via the oscilloscope, increasing transparency and safety for the user. The connection is made via a PROBIX plug system, compatible with BNC or standard cables, enabling flexible integration into existing measurement environments.
The current transformer is specifically designed for use in enclosures and power electronics. It is suitable for measuring AC currents in industrial plants, during maintenance of electrical systems, or for diagnosing faults in electronic circuits. The combination of high bandwidth and flexible design enables precise analysis even in complex electrical environments. Measurement is contactless, so no interruption of power supply is required.
The HX0073 is exclusively designed for SCOPIX oscilloscopes of the OX 9000 and OX 7000 series. It uses the PROBIX system, which enables direct communication between probe and oscilloscope.
Automatic recognition and calibration via the PROBIX system reduces setup time and minimizes error sources. Direct power supply from the oscilloscope ensures reliable operation without additional power sources. The flexible design and small encirclement diameter of 35 mm allow easy use in confined spaces. The bandwidth of 3 MHz enables measurement of high-frequency signals, which is crucial for analyzing modern electronic systems. Measurement is contactless, increasing safety and avoiding interruption of the electrical installation.
