The Leeds & Northrup 4360-Series
shunts are designed for accurate measurement
of large currents. They are designed to have
ample radiating surface for operation in air at
ordinary room temperatures at their rated
currents.
They are sized so that operating
temperature approximates peak temperature
(zero temperature coefficient point) of the
special grade of Manganin used for L&N
shunts.
The 4360, 4361 and 4363 shunts consist
of a continuous strip of Manganin in one or
more folds, held in position by spacers. The
higher current shunts are made up of parallel
strips of this material between heavy copper
terminals. They differ in the number and
dimensions of the strips needed to obtain the
required reistance and current-carrying
capacity.
All are designed to provide ample
contact with bus bars or corresponding current
carrying cables.
