ScienceScope ±10A Current Sensor

The Sciencescope ±10A Current Sensor is a precision tool for measuring both positive and negative currents in low-voltage circuits (up to 24V). Designed for use with Sciencescope Logbook datalogging systems, it delivers accurate readings across a wide frequency range from DC to 10 kHz, making it ideal for classroom experiments, demonstrations, and laboratory investigations.

With a measurement range of ±10 Amps and a fine resolution of 0.02A, this sensor is perfectly suited to exploring fundamental electrical principles as well as more advanced applications. Students can investigate Ohm’s Law, compare series and parallel circuits, test battery performance, and observe current surges. When paired with voltage sensors or known resistances, it can also be used to calculate power, energy, charge, resistance, and RMS current.

Key Features:

• Measures current in the range ±10 Amps
• High resolution: 0.02 A
• Works with Logbook data logging systems
• Operates from DC to 10 kHz
• Safe for circuits below 24V supply
• Enables calculations of charge, power, energy, resistance, and RMS current

Educational Applications:

• Demonstrating Ohm’s Law
• Series and parallel circuit experiments
• Battery testing and analysis
• Monitoring current surges
• Calculating energy transfer in electrical systems
