HAX 2000-S Current Sensor Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The HAX 2000-S is an active Hall Effect current sensor manufactured by LEM USA Inc., designed for AC/DC current measurement applications requiring high current sensing capability up to 2000A. This open-loop, bidirectional module delivers ratiometric voltage output with ±1% linearity and accuracy across a frequency range of DC to 25kHz. The product is currently active in production with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, application-specific current ranges, or supply chain requirements necessitate alternative sensor configurations within the HAX series.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the HAX series is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain compatible with the application:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Sensor Type: Hall Effect, Open Loop (fixed across series)
• Output Type: Ratiometric, Voltage (fixed across series)
• Frequency Range: DC ~ 25kHz (fixed across series)
• Linearity: ±1% (fixed across series)
• Accuracy: ±1% (fixed across series)
• Supply Voltage: ±15V (fixed across series)
• Response Time: 5µs (fixed across series)
• Maximum Supply Current: 20mA (fixed across series)
• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C ~ 85°C (fixed across series)
• Polarization: Bidirectional (fixed across series)
• Mounting Type: Chassis Mount (fixed across series)
• Package Type: Module (fixed across series)

Variable Parameter (Substitution Basis):

• Current Sensing Range: 2000A (main part) vs. 500A (substitute)

The HAX 500-S is identified as a parametric equivalent substitute because it maintains all electrical, mechanical, and environmental specifications identical to the HAX 2000-S, with the exception of the current sensing range. This substitution is valid only for applications where the maximum current measurement requirement does not exceed 500A.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

HAX 2000-S Selection Criteria:

• Applications requiring current measurement up to 2000A
• Systems with high-current industrial power distribution monitoring
• Equipment where maximum current sensing capability is a design requirement
• Active product status ensures ongoing manufacturing support and supply availability

HAX 500-S Selection Criteria:

• Applications with maximum current measurement requirements not exceeding 500A
• Systems where lower current range sensors provide adequate measurement capability
• Scenarios where HAX 500-S inventory availability (5300 pcs) exceeds HAX 2000-S availability (788 pcs)
• Active product status ensures ongoing manufacturing support and supply availability

Both parts maintain identical compliance certifications: RoHS Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and ECCN EAR99 classification. Selection between these parts is determined solely by the maximum current measurement requirement of the application. No additional testing or verification is required when substituting between these parts, provided the application current does not exceed the substitute part's 500A sensing range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HAX 500-S replace HAX 2000-S in all applications?

A: No. The HAX 500-S can replace the HAX 2000-S only in applications where the maximum current to be measured does not exceed 500A. If the application requires measurement of currents above 500A, the HAX 2000-S must be used.
