Precise Current Measurement for Modern Power Electronics

Walter Electronic Current Sensors: Reliable, Contact-Free and Highly Accurate

Whether in e-mobility, photovoltaic systems, energy storage or AI servers, high-performance current sensors are essential wherever high currents need to be monitored safely and accurately. Walter Electronic offers a comprehensive portfolio of precision sensor solutions for both current measurement and residual current detection.

The product range includes Current Sensors for currents from 5A up to 1.500A, as well as Residual Current Sensors for the reliable detection of leakage and residual currents below 5A. This enables designers to meet a wide range of requirements in modern power conversion and drive systems.

Depending on the application, Walter Electronic utilizes various sensing technologies, including Hall effect, Fluxgate and TMR (Tunnel Magneto Resistance). Fluxgate sensors, in particular, provide exceptionally accurate, contact-free current measurement with excellent long-term stability and outstanding linearity. Compared to conventional shunt-based solutions, they offer galvanic isolation and virtually zero measurement delay, making them ideal for safety-critical applications.

Walter current sensors are widely used in:

  • AC and DC charging stations and wallboxes
  • On-board chargers (OBC)
  • Photovoltaic inverters
  • Battery storage and energy storage systems
  • Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)
  • High-performance servers and AI data centres
  • Motor control systems and industrial drives

With outstanding measurement accuracy, fast signal processing and a broad selection of sensing technologies, Walter Electronic provides the right solution for virtually every application – from standard current monitoring to reliable residual current detection.
