LDSR

Leakage current measurement in transformerless photovoltaic (PV) inverters for residential market.

LDSR - Photovoltaic inverters leakage current sensors

The LDSR product family is designed for the measurement of DC, AC, and pulse currents of 0.3 ARMS nominal, providing galvanic separation between the primary and secondary circuits. These current sensors are specifically tailored for single-phase systems and are primarily used for earth leakage current measurement in solar applications.

LDSR sensors operate with a single +5 V supply and have an operating temperature range from -40 to +105°C. They are designed for PCB mounting. 

Utilizing closed loop Hall effect sensor technology, the LDSR series ensures reliable and precise current measurements, making them well-suited for renewable energy applications.
