Description
The FICO FCT-18PM PALM is a high-performance, indoor resin-cast current transformer designed with a specialized “Palm” type primary terminal. This dual-core transformer is engineered for simultaneous metering and protection within 12kV medium-voltage systems. Its robust epoxy construction and precise core design make it an essential component for reliable power monitoring and circuit safeguarding in industrial switchgear applications.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
Dual-Core Functionality: Integrated with two separate secondary windings to serve independent functions:
Core 1 (Protection): 600/5A, 15 VA, Class 5P20 — optimized for fault detection.
Core 2 (Metering): 600/5A, 10 VA, Class 0.5M5 — optimized for high-precision measurement.
Palm-Type Primary Terminal: Features a vertical flat-surface “Palm” connector for secure, high-conductivity bolting to busbar systems.
Advanced Safety Ratings: * Rated Voltage (Um): 12 kV
Insulation Level: 12/28/75 kV
Short-Time Thermal Current (Ith): 20 kA for 1 second.
Standards Compliance: Fully compliant with IEC 61869-1/2, ensuring international quality and safety benchmarks for instrument transformers.
Enhanced Protection: Secondary terminals are housed under a clear, protective cover to prevent accidental contact and ensure safe earthing.
Rugged Build: Vacuum-cast in premium epoxy resin to withstand mechanical vibrations, thermal cycles, and environmental moisture.
Safety Warning: As indicated on the product casing, one secondary terminal must be earthed during service. Never apply high voltage while the secondary winding is open-circuited.
