Current Sensor IVT-F

Current Sensor IVT-F

Nine top teams are using the IVT-F current sensor made by Isabellenhütte Heusler GmbH & Co. KG, Hesse, Germany, during the 2012 Formula 1 season, which will start on March 18th in Melbourne, Australia. The module has been integrated in the so-called E-KER systems: E-KERS is an Electric Kinetic Energy Recovery System that was used for the first time in 2009 and which was integrated in Formula 1 cars again for the 2011 season.

E-KERS forms part of the power transmission of F1 cars. It converts kinetic energy won during the breaking process into electricity with the help of an electric motor that also performs as a generator. This power is stored in lithium-ion batteries and fed back into an electric motor in strictly regulated quantities, which in turn boosts the Formula 1 car’s combustion engine during acceleration periods. Isabellenhütte’s IVT-F integrated current sensor controls the quantity of power supplied by the E-KERS. The Formula 1 umbrella organisation FIA (Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile) aims to ensure in this way that the racing teams will not use E-KERS to break the rules. It took just two months to develop the modules and they are specifically designed for use in Formula 1. Isabellenhütte’s measurement segment aims to cement its position as technological leader in the field of shunt-based current measurement with these products.

Jens Hartmann, Sales Director Measurement at Isabellenhütte Heusler GmbH & Co. KG comments: “We are already working on sensors for the 2013 and 2014 Formula 1 seasons.”

New FMx shunt family: Small and low-ohmic
Isabellenhütte has developed a new range of precision resistors in standard sizes with resistances ranging from 1 to 6 mOhm for applications which require small and low-ohmic shunts. In terms of their construction, the components are also less complex than the current ISA-PLAN®resistance families. And yet, they offer the same performance quality: very good long-term stability, a low temperature coefficient, and low thermoelectric voltages. With the FMx shunt family, Isabellenhütte has
