Product Safety notice -
UL 61010-1, 3rd Edition, May 11, 2012, Revised July 19, 2019, CAN/CSA, C22.2 No. 61010-
1-2 3rd Edition, Revisions dated July 19, 2019. 600v CAT II, 300v CAT III, Pollution Degree II.
CAT III refers to equipment intended to form part of a building installation.
CAT II refers to equipment intended to be supplied by building wiring.
The SSA current sensor must be used in a manner specified by this datasheet, otherwise the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired. The SSA series should not be treated
as a structural part of the installation and must be properly supported on both ends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the Riedon SSA compare with hall effect technology?
A:
When compared to hall effect technology, the SSA smart current sensor will offer:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Immunity to stray magnetic fields
Unlike closed loop hall sensors, the SSA has a unipolar power supply requirement
No hysteresis
Low-noise resolution and offset performance allows accurate low-current measurements
Superior offset, gain and linearity performance over entire temperature range
Low noise
Higher bandwidth (300KHz vs 50KHz)
Lighter weight
Superior stability
No sensitivity to conductor positioning
No periodic calibration
Here is a document published by Texas Instruments that discusses some of the technical aspects:
http://www.ti.com/lit/sbaa293
Q: Is the SSA sutiable for AC measurements?
A:
The wide bandwidth of the SSA makes it appropriate for measureing AC currents as well as DC
Q: Is there a derating for temperature?

SSA - Smart Current Sensor
Amplified Differential Analog Output and Reinforced Galvanic Isolation
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the overload capabilities of the SSA?
A:
The output reading will saturate with an input current that exceeds the corresponding maximum unclipped
voltage output of 2.62volts. Ultimately, the overload capabilities are thermally limited per the derating curve.
Q: What is the best way to connect to the SSA’s terminals?
A:
Make sure connections are clean and well prepared. Bolts to be torqued to the hardware manufacturer’s
recommendations. There should be sufficient clamping force to ensure proper connection. Overlap shown below
should be taken as a minimum. Suitable for Copper, Copper-Clad Aluminum or Aluminum conductors.

TORQUE: 11-13 ft-lb, 15-17.6 N-m
Q: How much heat does the SSA smart current sensor create?
A:
A majority of the heat generated by the SSA is dissipated through the primary conductors. Care should be
taken to ensure that the primary conductors are sized appropriately given expected amperage and conductor
length. We recommend a 70°C maximum conductor temperature. If there are thermal concerns, oversizing the
conductors will help minimize the operating temperature of the smart current sensor.

Q: Is it necessary to install the SSA on the low side of the circuit?
A:
The SSA series of smart current sensors is completely isolated, so it may be installed in either the low or high
side of the circuit.
