Week 11 - Voltage Transducer and Mount building
Voltage Transducer: Initial Testing We went to the workshop to experiment with the voltage transducer. The Voltage Transducer that is currently being experimented with is the CR5310 of the CR5300 Series. Figure 1: Voltage Transducer Figure 2: Set-up Configuration The voltage transducer receives a High Voltage input and scales it down, converting it to a Low Voltage output. The input range can take up to a range of 0 - 150V to return output from 0 - 5V for CR5310, It isolates the LV output from the HV input. We proceeded to test it out to determine it's sensitivity. Ideally, the input of 150V would result in a 5V output and that the relationship between the input and output is linear. Thus we can calculate the gradient of the relationship between Vin and Vout to be y=30x. (where y=Vin, x= Vout). However, we weren't given the exact coefficient of the gradient for its' sensitivity, hence we need to test it out. ...
