Riedon shunts enable accurate current measurement in a wide range of applications, such as renewable energy, RVs, and marine power supplies.

AAC’s Digital Datasheet video series introduces the specs and applications of components—both new and familiar—straight from their datasheets.

Riedon Shunts

Riedon shunts enable accurate current measurement in a wide range of applications, such as renewable energy, RVs, and marine power supplies. Riedon offers standard shunts with current ratings from 1A to 10,000A and standard 50mV or 100mV outputs. ±0.25% tolerance is standard and ±0.1% tolerance is available on request.

Riedon uses non-inductive manganin resistive elements for its excellent thermal stability and kelvin connections to minimize measurement error. Highest accuracy will be achieved at temperatures between 30°C and 60°C, but the shunts can be used at temperatures up to 125°C without damage. Designers can also use the shunts in pulsed applications with current exceeding the rated current with proper thermal considerations.

While Riedon offers a wide range of standard shunts that can meet the electrical and physical requirements of many applications, Riedon can also design and manufacture custom shunts to meet application-specific requirements, with custom products delivered for EVs, aerospace, and many other applications.
