The CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer is an innovative current measurement solution designed for high-current, complex installation environments. Developed by Junray Electrical, this flexible transformer provides accurate AC current monitoring without requiring conductor modification. With excellent adaptability for large-diameter cables, irregular conductors, and limited installation spaces, it is widely used in power system maintenance, equipment testing, distribution upgrades, and harmonic analysis applications.
In modern electrical systems, accurate current measurement plays an essential role in ensuring power safety, energy management, and equipment reliability. Junray Electrical provides the CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer as an advanced current measurement device designed for challenging installation conditions where traditional current transformers are difficult to apply.
Unlike conventional rigid-core current transformers, the flexible split-core design allows engineers to install the transformer around existing conductors without disconnecting cables or interrupting electrical operations. This feature significantly reduces installation time and makes it especially suitable for power distribution systems, industrial equipment monitoring, and retrofit projects.
The CTLSX series adopts a flexible sensing structure that can easily wrap around large or irregular conductors. It supports applications involving high current measurement, temporary inspection, and long-term monitoring while maintaining reliable measurement performance.
A CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer operates based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When alternating current flows through a conductor, the magnetic field generated around the conductor is captured by the flexible sensing coil. The transformer then converts the measured current into a proportional electrical signal that can be analyzed by monitoring instruments.
The openable split-core structure allows technicians to install the device directly around existing cables or busbars. Compared with traditional current transformers that require cable disconnection or system shutdown, flexible split-core technology provides a safer and more efficient measurement method.
The increasing complexity of power systems requires current measurement equipment that combines accuracy, flexibility, and easy installation. The CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer offers several advantages for professional electrical applications.
One of the most important advantages of this transformer is its flexible structure. It can measure current on large-diameter conductors, irregular cables, and installations where traditional current transformers cannot be easily mounted.
The flexible design enables installation around conductors with diameters of up to several meters, making it an ideal choice for large power equipment and industrial electrical systems.
During electrical upgrades or maintenance projects, shutting down power systems can cause significant losses. The CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer eliminates the need for conductor removal or modification, helping engineers complete installation faster and safer.
Accurate current measurement is critical for electrical monitoring. The CTLSX transformer provides stable measurement results for applications such as load monitoring, power quality analysis, and equipment diagnosis.
| Installation Type | Main Purpose | Application Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Temporary Installation | Portable measurement and quick inspection | Power testing, troubleshooting, energy audits |
| Permanent Installation | Continuous monitoring | Industrial power systems, distribution monitoring |
| Retrofit Installation | Upgrade existing electrical systems | Old equipment renovation and efficiency improvement |
Because of its flexible installation capability and accurate measurement performance, the CTLSX Flexible split-core transformer is widely used across different industries.
Electrical engineers can use flexible split-core transformers to inspect current loads, identify abnormal operating conditions, and improve system reliability without interrupting normal power supply.
Large motors, production machines, and industrial control systems require continuous current monitoring. The CTLSX solution helps operators collect real-time electrical data for predictive maintenance.
Modern electrical networks often include nonlinear loads that create harmonic problems. Accurate current measurement helps engineers analyze power quality and optimize system performance.
For existing facilities where cable replacement is difficult, flexible current transformers provide a practical solution for upgrading monitoring systems.
