Sine Systems ACM-2 AC Current Monitor

Revolutionize AC Current Monitoring with Sine Systems ACM-2
Introducing the Sine Systems ACM-2 AC Current Monitor, a cutting-edge solution designed to enhance the capabilities of the RFC-1 remote control system through passive AC current monitoring. Whether you're aiming to ensure the seamless operation of obstruction lighting on communication towers or to gauge the AC current consumption of devices ranging from 1 to 70 amperes, the ACM-2 is equipped to handle both 120 and 240-volt applications with unparalleled precision.

Comprehensive Monitoring Package
The ACM-2 package is meticulously assembled to include everything you need for efficient monitoring: an AC current monitor PC board complete with a mounting bracket, an AC current pickup transformer, and comprehensive product documentation. This setup guarantees a swift and hassle-free installation process, allowing you to commence monitoring without delay.

Sophisticated Design for Accurate Measurement
At the heart of the ACM-2 lies a current transformer that samples the AC signal, paired with a circuit that adeptly converts this output to a DC voltage suitable for monitoring. This sophisticated design ensures the accurate and reliable measurement of AC current, facilitating the convenient placement of the current transformer close to the monitored AC wiring.

Effortless Installation and Safety Compliance
Designed for versatility, the ACM-2's PC board can be mounted in any suitable dry location, adhering to both national and local electrical codes for installation and wiring. The device also incorporates safety features to handle transient voltage conditions such as lightning strikes, prioritizing user safety alongside monitoring efficiency.

Optimal Tower Lighting Oversight
Predominantly utilized for overseeing tower lighting circuits, the ACM-2's DC conversion circuit effectively 'smooths' the AC voltage sampled by the pickup transformer. This feature is particularly advantageous for monitoring lighting systems with flashing beacons, simplifying the integration with telemetry systems like the RFC-1 for continuous, precise observation.

Advanced Alarm Monitoring Capabilities
The ACM-2 enhances telemetry alarm systems by offering solutions for monitoring devices active only during specific times. An innovative addition allows the integration of a photosensor circuit to automatically disable ACM-2 telemetry during daylight, providing round-the-clock monitoring tailored to your needs. The manual includes a sample circuit, further simplifying implementation with readily available parts.
