Request a QuoteThe Honeywell CSNP661 is a high-performance closed-loop Hall-effect current sensor designed for accurate AC/DC/pulse current measurement up to 50A continuous (90A peak). Leveraging Honeywell’s proven null-balance (zero-flux) feedback technology, this sensor delivers exceptional linearity and stability for power conversion, motor drives, renewable energy systems, and industrial automation where reliable current monitoring is critical.
As part of Honeywell’s CSN Series, this PCB-mount sensor provides galvanic isolation while converting measured current into a proportional voltage output across an external resistor. Its compact rectangular package accommodates through-hole, bus-bar, or pin-type current paths, making it adaptable to diverse system architectures from servo drives to EV charging stations.
