Overview
CURS100 100 Ohm Current Shunt Terminal Input Module
The CURS100 enables your Campbell Scientific data logger to measure a sensor or output device that outputs a current signal (for example, 4 to 20 mA). It converts the current signal to a voltage signal.

Technical Description
The CURS100 uses a 100 Ω resistor for the current shunt that allows currents up to 25 mA to be read on a ±2500 mV range (CR10X, CR510) and currents up to 50 mA to be read on a ±5000 mV range.
