VA-1A Specifications
Size (H x W x D)
2.5" x 2.5" x 2.5," with a 2.25" Bezel
Weight
Instrument - 9 oz.
S-50 Shunt - 3 oz.
S-300 Shunt - 12 oz.
Power Requirements
7.0 to 40 Volts, 2/10 Amp
Display
Viewable in direct sunlight, with dimmable 12 and 24 volt backlight control lines.
Accuracy
1% of reading +/- one count.
Resolution
VA-1A and VA-1A-XX (60 Amps and below for "XX") resolve amperage
to .1 amps. VA-1A-XX (above 60 for "XX") resolve to 1 amps. All units resolve voltage to .1 volts.
VA-1A Configuration
Contains an internal shunt for measuring current to 100 amps and
voltage to 40 volts.
VA-1A-XX Configuration
This unit must be matched to the aircraft's external shunt. The
shunt value is determined by how many amps must pass through the external shunt in order to acheive a 50mV drop across the
shunt leads (i.e., 100 amp, 50mV external shunt would be matched to a VA-1A-100, a 70 amp, 50mV external shunt would be
matched to a VA-1A-70, etc...).
