Functional Devices RIBXGA Sensor
The Functional Devices RIBXGA is a professional-grade split-core current sensor designed for accurate AC load monitoring in building automation systems. Engineered with a solid-state current switch, this sensor provides a reliable digital output to controllers when current flow exceeds the field-adjustable threshold. Its split-core housing allows for seamless installation around existing conductors without disconnecting lines, making it an ideal choice for retrofitting HVAC motor status monitoring and fan proving applications. The unit features a broad sensing range of 0.75 to 150 Amps and includes a high-visibility LED indicator to provide local verification of the contact status during commissioning and troubleshooting.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- Adjustable Trip Point: Enables precise calibration for various motor sizes and load profiles, ensuring accurate on/off status detection.
- Inductive Powering: The device is self-powered from the monitored line, eliminating the need for external power supplies and reducing wiring complexity.
- Compact Split-Core Design: Saves significant labor time by snapping directly onto wires without interrupting the circuit.
- High Voltage Compatibility: Rated for use on systems up to 600 Vac, making it suitable for industrial and commercial motor control centers.
- Reliable Switching: The N.O. solid-state output integrates perfectly with DDC systems and PLCs for real-time equipment feedback.
Common Questions:
How do I set the trip point on the RIBXGA?
The trip point is adjusted via a multi-turn potentiometer. For motor status, start the equipment and turn the adjustment until the LED status indicator illuminates, then turn slightly further to ensure a stable signal despite minor current fluctuations.
Can this sensor be used for VFD applications?
Yes, the Functional Devices RIBXGA is effective for monitoring the output of Variable Frequency Drives, provided the frequency remains within the standard 50/60 Hz operating range for accurate induction.
What is the maximum current load for the internal switch?
The internal solid-state contact is designed to switch up to 30 Vac/dc at 0.4 Amps, intended for signaling BAS controllers rather than driving heavy loads directly.
